I feel there is an underlying duality in words that both expresses and limits. I wonder do any of us ever break free from earthly constraints of human language?

His cycle appears to be:<br /> <br />1. Drinking too much. I have not observed ill effects here - personality or judgment - but his wife has mentioned it. And then<br />2. lurching to repulsive religiosity, perhaps to stop drinking too much?.<br /> <br />He is in the latter phase. He sent a junk email that was a call to "Hate for Jesus" and that was the straw that made me call him on it which has ended the friendship. And it was factually and provably untrue with a 20 second google search. It debased the ACLU and I am a member of it. So, I chose to call him on it and did it with my usual intensity. Members of his family here lose his number when he is in this phase and he is oblivious to that fact. <br /><br />So I chose the moment and timing of when to confront him. I have already come around to believing that this is what I was supposed to do and knew what the price to me (lost friend) would be. I suppose that I have a need to not be connected to him (and therefore on some level dependent upon him) at this time. There it is! How is that for self-enforced tough love? And I rememeber something offensive he said and did on January 2nd that I did not react to but it really did bother me for days afterwards. <br /><br />What I have not mentioned is that I am on a long term partial fast. Down 15 lbs in 3 weeks. Time to quit fucking around and to rapidly morph into a totally new form. That is me. Glacially slow to appear unchanging and then all of a sudden comes a jump to warp-12 and I travel across the galaxy in the blink of an eye. And on a fast as the ice melts all sort of emotions and memories long encased in frozen ice (like the ice age man in the Alps from a decade ago) are suddenly revealed. Such as January 2nd.<br /> <br />I think one of the modern seven deadly sins is malformed deadly religiosity that is based on hate, division, and smugness. American establishment Christianity seems so full of it. Oh old school such as Methodist or Episcopalian isn’t. But, country club big money cult style is horrific and attracts and breeds the worst in humanity. There is not a church on earth that I would surrender to and join. Not one.<br /><br />Time to finish my ½ gallon of Crystal Lite and take a hot bath and walk 2 fast miles.T-Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14921295474454883903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5642486061561733979.post-21296280651324960772010-02-07T09:27:32.662-08:002010-02-07T09:27:32.662-08:00Life will always be there for you, 'til your v...Life will always be there for you, 'til your very last breath...r.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00604234827507126393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5642486061561733979.post-52259414036444481512009-09-08T02:28:36.359-07:002009-09-08T02:28:36.359-07:00I would really like to use your kiwi magic photo o...I would really like to use your kiwi magic photo on our website www.rhododirect.co.nz if you are willing (photo credits provided of course) please email me at rhododirect@slingshot.co.nzMarina Shearerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10906689128572745601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5642486061561733979.post-83150153805711299872009-05-04T15:46:00.000-07:002009-05-04T15:46:00.000-07:00Steven, I liked it enough that I want to go back f...Steven, I liked it enough that I want to go back for a proper non-convention 4 day visit. I wanted to ride the Trolley rail and see where it will take me. I love riding local transportation. I want to get out into neighborhoods. I want to cross the bridge. I want to go to a beach. I want to catch the Dodgers (the California Angels SUCK BUTT). Dodgers/Cubs pennant battle. Now THAT would be fun. I’d pull for the cubbies. I would LOVE to see them go all the way.

As others have stated before me, she was a beautiful woman and held on to that beauty until the end. She was also one who had to have had a lot of personal strength to get herself through what had to have been tough times. <BR/><BR/>It's also nice to discover that you come from a "picture-family." To see a timeline established just by the introduction of photos that cover a lifetime...and more. Something to cherish for years to come.<BR/><BR/>Should you ever have those thoughts of failure again, just remember what your brother told you.Stevenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15460856009625389973noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5642486061561733979.post-45155536595683047422009-04-05T11:33:00.000-07:002009-04-05T11:33:00.000-07:00Yes, they are so cute peeking out of her robe.
