Clinic Day

I woke with the alarm. Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty.  I didn’t dose. Just petted Madigan and made it to the living room where I pray and meditate.  It’s the best way to start the day.  Then coffee.  Getting up at 630 makes the morning less pressured.

I’ve even had time to pursue the mail and FB which is sadly an increasing waste of time dominated by political negativity.  

I’m addicted to the snarky criticism of the globalists and collectivists and neo communists.  I’m Conservative and if I was true to my spiritual beliefs I’d celebrate conservative positions rather than criticisze the opposition.

My Aunt Sally, my wonderful Baptist, said ‘if you’ve nothing good to say about a person then say nothing.

I read about a person gardening.  He’d grown roses for the first time.  So much better than political arguing with bots.

I have worked all my life long hours and long days in areas of high risk and dangerous conditions and always paid exorbitant taxes and dealt with scavengers and parasites.

Now that viewpoint isn’t positive. I’ve been blessed and known so many wonders and need to have an attitude of gratitude .
