A terminal for all blogs coming in or going out. A view into my life.

I'm starting a new blog because

BOOK

Enga mellom fjella: where from across the meadow, poems sing from mountains and molehills.

Short 300 word, more or less, "stories" .

I've started an appendix (I no longer have one personally) to keep track of my Space Cadet journals for Space Blog. It's a work constantly under construction. Mind the mess.

I believe in unpatented-unhyphenated-God who responds to whatever name is used. One of the entries rubbed me the wrong way and there are many religious people here at WDC, on other social media and IRL who rub me even worse. I decided to not mention that as a specific comment because it wouldn't have helped. Maybe one epiphany growing up was that I didn't believe in the White Jesus that was being marketed and merchandised.

*Sandy: "Double ouch. *Care* I think these experiences need to be shared, if only as a warning to others. I have been pissed and hurt by numerous people in my life and a couple I'd rather not see again; but, there's only one s.o.b. I really fear. He's charasmatic, psychopathic and dangerous." re "Eureka

*Kathie: "Life is too short to be unhappy. Triggers me a bit. I didn't leave a marriage but I did leave a life behind. Was it worth it? Am I happier? Rough questions. I seem to be entering a different stage of life. That may bring new challenges, new choices, or no choice at all." re "WDC 30 Day Blogging Nov. 18, 2021

?Viv: "I remember my move to Kansas and then 30 years later to Oklahoma. Both good moves, but the culture took some getting used to. The move to Montana led to me traveling abroad. That too was good. Covid forced me to stay home. That isn't good for me mentally, emotionally nor physically. But I'm having difficulty getting my rusty self back in gear." re "Changed View

Robert: "I have small epiphanies. I want to move from here because they do not value what is already here but have decided that whatever was and is isn't good enough. They must detroy to rebuild grander, bigger, more luxurious, because folks-they-value no longer want to live without a/c, a hot tub, a private parking spot. They value the creation of a new city, one that has no room for the likes of me. " re "Epiphany

Sue: "I was on someone else's roller-coaster. I had to get off. Then I had to stop looking at the wreck-in-progress. Not taking care of myself created severe issues... and still does." re "Eureka

Petra: "It is amazing how betrayal is deeply felt. Sonali mentioned this about not being told about her uncle's death for years. Lies => feeling of betrayal. " re "Invalid Entry

Cappucine: "Ouch. I wonder what moments from a childhood I can't remember molded me. There were many I'm sure but I tried for years to erase the pain. Looking back, it took years for me to realize I wasn't liked... and more years to understand that I was unlikeable. " re "ya cat died

?QP: "It's amazing what we refuse to discuss as a culture (sex is a major American taboo) and then expect young and old (dying is another taboo) to cope on their own (because individuality is glorified). *Care* I remember reacting to being called 'sir'. I wasn't ready to be old. Now it's nice to be 'seen'." re "My Changed Views

Sonali: "I remember having nightmares about dying in an auto accident... until I had one. Very bad, woke up in the hospital, friends told me I wasn't myself for months. But after... no more nightmares." re"Angiography - #30DBC

Jenn: "The problem with schooling, homeschooling, unschooling, is that the child will only learn what they are exposed to and taught. / Most folks/parents/schools focus on math, language, culture (history, social studies, geography) and maybe science (what isn't contrary to their world view). But what bothers me is the lack of experience with people who don't look and think like them and then continuing to live in this bubble until they look for a job expecting to apply their language, their culture, their religion on others. I'm tired of hearing "I respect you" in a superior tone of dismissal which translates as "I have no need to consider you". Understanding people/animals/trees is a skill that can be neglected to the detriment of society in general. / How many children/youth are forced to deal with anything outside of their comfort zone when parents/family/teachers/leaders are skeptical or literally frightened? " re "Invalid Entry

LeJenD: "Quite a bit of pain involved at various stages of life. And the healing process continues. *HeartO*" re "Life Epiphany - 30DBC 11/19

Marvilla: "New habits, better habits and light to guide your way." re "The Great Epiphany

Mike: "Wonderful, wasn't it. *HeartO* Unfortunately, in my opinion, there are still people who think that only the mother can/should bond with a child. Parental leave for fathers is slowly catching on in Europe, at least in Sweden (since 1974). You'd have been one of the latte daddies proudly pushing Christa in her pram. *Smile* In some parts of the world, child-raising has always been a family and village affair. Even some cultures in the US may have been... but got away from that. There's hope for future fathers though." re "Rock-a-My Baby [30 DBC entry]

Sox: "Yeah... and then you're tall enough to do the dishes and... that's all she wrote. *Smile*" re "November 19, 2021
