Island Of Misfits

It more than being seen Brother.
Its a feeling in your heart when you look into the eyes of a child
My neighbor's son drown in their pool last week and my wife was there to help by calling 911 and getting the father from his office in the house so he could perform CPR.
The child regained a pulse and breathing, after a brief stay in hospital he is home.
There is a Grand plan for us all is what I believe in,
Now don't start with me on this.

Yet thousands of little children are being raped,molested, murdered or sold into sex slavery every day.Guess your neighbors son was more important to God than all the others. Amazing how he picks and chooses what child is worthy of his help.
If it was your child that had been murdered or raped or disappeared due to being sold into sex slavery,,would feel the same way? How would that FEELING in your heart be then.

Good question? If we could answer that their would be no more wars, nah who am I kidding< Mankind can not survive without killing each other . Nature of the beast.

Life competes for space and resources, with man is no exception. What appears to be missing in our society is respect and affinity for other people.

If the others are somehow flawed and beneath our exalted station in life, it is easier to justify treating them disrespectfully and unfairly.

I once had an epiphany on good smoke, two hits of windowpane and a snort or so of PCP. After spending 12 hours comforting a friend similarly medicated and whose heart I managed to casually break with a comment, I realized that regardless of the litany of justifications for our actions, what was gets us in trouble is our actual motives.

Exactly. If it doesn't make since there is a reason.
Kinda like fking COVID and the lies our Governments tell us that so many buy into.
Same with religion.

Congratulations all over your ole self!

You now represent 0.21 percent of the male population. The other 99.79% did not make it yet (if they do, that is). And most of them don't stand a chance.

"The overall average life expectancy for men born today is down from 74.2 to 73.5"

You are, at this very moment, six and a half years out of warranty.**

Define God?

Can we agree that the "creator", however they/who/it are described, has given both the fox and the hare exactly what they need to survive and flourish, but doesn't appear to care which one wins in a chase?

Suppose man created God in our own image, with our own values, but that is not the same set of values the creator has, nor do they remotely look like us.

Consider that the creator created our bodies to include antibodies, that fight off parasites. Perhaps we are the antibodies of the body of mankind, and it is up to us to destroy the parasites and other invaders.

I believe that the answer is beyond our comprehension at our stage of evolution and because of that, we will all die believing we are right and be wrong.

We got a gazebo nothin fancy Honey loves it and is putting curtains up.
one corner of the gazebo over looks where we buried our Boy Mojo.
I found a old photo ,got it printed on a metal picture and
going to put it in the corner as a surprise.

I know a guy that's an incredible artist. Commissioned him to hand draw a portrait of my daughter's first and second dogs a few years ago, and I framed it and gave it to her for Christmas. She cried.

The oldest one, a Lab, has since passed, and the other, a German Shepard, is quite grey these days. That'll be a really tough one for her. She'll bounce back, though - she's a 'nutso dog-mom', and she trains dogs for a living.

How do they get around the FFL on the shipping?
There are a few States that would jump all over your azz if you bought one and did not register as a pistol.
