Some Where Over The Rainbow

Far away there in the sunshine are my highest aspirations. I may not reach them, but I can look up and see their beauty, believe in them, and try to follow where they lead.
Louisa May Alcot

THE JOSHUA TREE

This is the tree our town is named for. Now that investment land in California has paved a road to us, a law was passed that no Joshua Trees can be killed by builders, or anyone else. They must be moved. This doesn't sound like a big job,: however, the JT must be replanted in the exact position they grew in, or else they will die.

Strength

Let me not pray to be sheltered from dangers, but to be fearless in facing them. Let me not beg for the stilling of my pain, but for the heart to conquer it."

Ever let mercy outweigh all else in you. Let our compassion be a mirror where we may see in ourselves that likeness and that true image which belong to the Divine nature and Divine essence.

BLAMING THE BRIDE 5-2-05

O. K. THE BRIDE,
Personally I think she experienced a pre-nuptial psychotic break of some kind; or she wasn’t taking her med’s, or she has had a psychiatric illness and the STRESS of a 600 guest wedding pushed her right over the edge into illness!
Now she is being charged with something or another.!
Think about all the FBI and other various and sundry ‘ENFORCEMENT agencies our tax dollars pay for, that have been spent hunting down INNOCENT VICTIMS!
Here in California , a week doesn’t go by , when half the agencies in the state chase some whackadoo on the freeway at ridiculous speeds, endangering everyone on the road, while not being available to respond to the calls for much more important crimes!
Oh, and don’t even get me started on our MEDIA!!!
The groom to be having to take a lie detector test! C-mon!!
It was and still is a DRAMA. and the media takes it , writes it there way, and way to many people jump on board this train , frantically waiting for the next report, its the “talk of the town” all the while the networks bank accounts going > Kaching!$$$ Kaching$$$$ Kaching!!!!

I HAVE THE FLU

It is even more LOUSY, Yucky, Achey , Exhaustifyingly, depressing to be sick when it is Sunny, 70, and Edenesque outside .

THE TANKS AMIDST THE TREES

. There are not many places n America,where you may site on any given day full fledged assault tanks driving down the road. It is an odd site to see them juxtaposed againsted the people cars , SUV's and stores that line the main highway.
I want to call out "be safe" "thankyou", but even more I want to grab a camouflage covered young man, women, hug them and say,
"Go home to those you love." You belong here, living your life.

TURTLE DAYS, TORTOISE, TANKS * TRACTORS

This is a tortoise, who wandered into our yard yesterday. It is a fairly amazing event, considering I shared the story of "Emma" just a few days ago. Scroll down and read the entry in GREEN ! Image hosted by Photobucket.com
