Potpourri Vol. 1

by Archie

Rated: 13+ · Book · Opinion · #758164

This is a catch all area for thoughts and things.

This is merely a collection of my thoughts on various topics, as I think of them, or find them in my other writings. All are original, and I state freely that they are generally highly opinionated.

In response to "Where Have All the Ethics Gone?"

Fast forward two months ... has anything changed?

He's getting everything he wants. Closed borders, packed courts, a crisis that blinds everyone to how he is grabbing power.

I still don't get the feeling that he cares about Americans ... in the sense of seeing them as people rather than pawns.

Maybe you should write another blog?

In response to "Virginia is for Lovers?"

It was important to: 1. impose a puritanical Christian view on everybody. 2. to prevent any relationship that was frowned upon like inter-racial and same sex relationships. 3. tradition... even long after it no longer serves a purpose. 4. control... to be able to criminalize normal behaviour.

In response to "A Magical Time in Politics"

Involvement is great but exhausting. I don't have the energy these days other than to share my views and experience and call-out meanness and lies.

For years I was involved in my community in non-partisan ways. No longer. Kicks in the shins and few pats on the back will do that. Would I do it again? You betcha! But I don't have the energy any longer.

In response to "Muses"

Thanks, ZD!

I got to thinking that people are much the same in this way. If we are happy and satisfied with the status quo, we don't go out to look for new and better things for ourselves. It is when we are unhappy or dissatisfied that we go out in search of "greener grass."

Why not the same for Muses who provide us with creativity?

In response to "Muses"

Hey ARchie- This is really insightful. I don't recall ever hearing the muse described this way before. The idea that it has to be unhappy, or unfullfilled to be active is new to me, but I like it! Makes a lot of sense.

In response to "What If?"

The road map is well-hidden within each of us. To my knowledge, no one has found it!

Thanks for the comment.

In response to "What If?"

Hhhhmmmm....sounds like paradise to me. Got a good road map? The only map I have is on a tombstone in a graveyard with my name on it. Lemme know.
