Orwell’s 1984 Revisited

It’s ORWELL’S 1984 come to life… he depicted this time so vividly in his novel. And with deep sadness, I recognize that we are in it for real. How and why this monstrous admin is allowed to continue their hitleristic nazi movement is beyond me. This is our America, which immigrants built. This is our […]

Hmmmm… Life’s Moments

Long day today, work, shopping, playing ball with the pups, then just doing stuff around the house. Nothing profound, just pondering on things that needed doing. After procrastinating for far too long, I asked alexa to play my favorite 60’s and 70’s artists, and just like that, the smooth tones of Paul Simon filled the […]

Thank you!

I feel so blessed by each of you who visit my site! My ultimate goal started as a way to share the joy of writing with each of you. However, this year, my focus has been deterred by our political climate. I do apologize to each of you for getting off track. I feel so […]

By the Dawn’s Early Light

The USA has, since WW2, been allies and defenders of the free world. My dad and Uncle fought in WW2. My husband and his brother both fought in Vietnam. They did not go because our country was physically under attack. They did not go just because they were “called up.” They went because they were […]

Return to Warsaw

I feel as though I have been transported back to the 1940’s, and our countrymen are all rallying to fight against one of the cruelest, most hated dictators of all time, Adolf Hitler. However, this is 2025 in the USA. It has been almost 100 years since the holocaust. It takes me a minute to […]

Beat of My Heart…

Tonight’s blog came about when I responded to a post about Joe Biden.  Joe often gets a bum’s wrap when people discuss his leadership. However, I also am a quiet person, but I don’t ever imagine myself as less than others because I’m quiet. Even though I’m not always “seen” as a great orator, I […]

The New Collosus

Poem by Emma Lazarus Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,With conquering limbs astride from land to land;Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall standA mighty woman with a torch, whose flameIs the imprisoned lightning, and her nameMother of Exiles. From her beacon-handGlows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes commandThe air-bridged harbor that twin cities […]

Freedom, Lord, Came Easier…

Freedom of speech is only one of the rights we still have access to today. Each day, some new atrocity occurs. Today, an American president stated that he plans to reinstate a 1748 law that states all people who are not “like him” can be placed in interment camps like the Japanese were in W.W.2. […]

The Declaration of Independence

https://www.archives.gov/founding-docs/declaration-transcript Read every word! What took place in 1776 by the mad ravings of a king is now happening again in our United States. The difference being… today, we hear the mad ravings of a would be King “dump” rather than a cruel king of England in the 1700’s. Shall we allow our United States […]
