There's a lot of craziness going on in the world today. And what makes it worse - or seem worse - is when you or a loved one faces some trial or issue that you didn't see coming. Like COVID. As I get older, I tend to think a lot more about people than I … Continue reading Either way
Truth and Lie
Thanks to Pam for sending me this, I had never heard it. It apparently comes from the late 18th Century, and continues to be relevant.

What’s The Use?
What’s the use? What difference does it make?

Male or Female – Not A Choice
Sex. One or the other. Male or female. Not both. No mix, no conglomeration, no perceived identity, no “feeling,” no wish, no drugs, or surgery will change it. No matter how one makes themselves look, act, or smell, they are what they were at birth. Female or male. Period. To believe otherwise is to deny … Continue reading Male or Female – Not A Choice
