A Peaceable Kingdom

China did move to strike the ability to write journals on the Internet all over China.People in the government there do not wish for the citizens to be able to write their mind. They are now going to monitor all blogs and people have to restate theri loyalty to the communist party.

In 2004, the Chinese took measures to make sure Taiwan was scared of their military forces by sending soldiers to Taiwan en masse to scare the Taiwanese into submission.

People are we sure that we can have a peaceable kingdom with a government who only honors a chosen few?Many people are encouraged to leave the country and work like a dog in big cities without even a roof over their heads and no assistence to get one.

The Water Porter Shines

The water porter has recovered! Sound your buugles!

I'm quite happy about it! Please write down some fabulous triumphs here for all to enjoy!

The Water Porter

I enjoyed the movie "The Waterboy" because on the surface it was alot of fun and it mirrored our huge need to have some people care for our concerns; we need as a people to have care givers and helpers who give us encoragement and who believe in us.

One of my cousins has a mother who fits this descsription. She  always has an agenda and it includes helping others shine and have fun.She has such a great sense of  humor that people enjoy just being in the room with her.

 

She just had a pacemaker put in and I hope that she will be okay.

Memorial Day for us

We have relatives who have stood up to the Nazis. We know what it was like to be out in the cold with no help coming and your friends dying. We know what the heroes gave and how much it cost them. It cost them everything and yet they had the guts to stand up for you and me and die for our freedom . Let's remember them and honor them. Let's be worth it.

How We Bloggers are weaving a Community

Some bloggers whose work I have read have agreed to read my journals and comment back and it's really giving me that new edgy feeling that we are  in the process of doing some creative barn building together!

It's very new and kind of far out and zanny... Ondine can drop a beautiful photo with a great piece of prose with it and I will feel uplifted.. or Lisa will tell a story about her funny day with the kids and husband and some serious thoughts about her health and I'm there...Or Unicorngirl will tell me about her life adn her philosophies. Kris and dragonrose throw in some tales and my eldest child will bring new feedback to life.

Thanks Guys!

Star Wars in the Beginning

When Star Wars was new, it was a shining star; we had never seen a movie of its' kind (dimensional, with many spacecraft and several entertaining scenes which differed from one another.) Young people admired the Princess because she had courage to "fight the good fight" along with Skywalker even if she died trying.

Skywalker was fun and some times funny :).

Chewybaca was hillarious. The fight scene at the bar was so much fun because it gave comic relief and people used to love to compare the weird creatures who were there.:).

Darth Vader was so bad; and his robotic helpers were everywhere.

Everyone loved to play with the laser swords and they used to hand them out at parties.

my favorite teacher

My favorite teacher was Mrs. Wilton. She enjoyed us totally.She required us to memorize "If" by Rudyard Kipling. The poem changed my life. We also read

the poem "The Tree" and I wrote a poem.

She made us believe that each of us was unique and that everybody was important.
