Three Score and Ten the Introduction, Well here we go, After 50 years I am going to take another attempt at writing. The first time was the Palmer writers correspondence school in 1969. The writing will be not a book that will be written with the idea of being published, But will be a writing of thoughts unencumbered by possible publishing and monetary gain. This writing will be a hybrid of Journal and Reminisce. It is important to me that the writings are my true thoughts at the time, not influenced by any factor. The writing will try to explain how a 70 year old white, male USA citizen now relates to today's world. Is every oldest generation lost in their own world, that they aged into? What do I see, and feel as I age farther. I know I am not normal as in what this world today would consider normal. But I hope I am in the ball park writing the thoughts of a 70 year old. I hope for you to learn to know who I am, As I search for Who I am at 70+ This work will carry on until I am no longer able to think or write. This will be done on a nearly daily writing interwoven with a life's reminiscing. This writing has been in the planning for 10 plus years. and I have now made it to this starting point. This writing is dedicated to My Wife The Kitten, My family, My grand children, Lukas, Levi, Luis, Lydia and Sonora Pearl. I thank you God that you have allowed me to have your Three Score and Ten Time. |
I did not write last evening as I had planned to do. I got real tired and did not have the ambition to write. But my sleep was not good the Little Dog kept hogging the bed. He does not sleep with us every night, but it was colder last night. It is a treat for little Dog. At any rate I did not sleep well. I was thinking about what I wanted to write on this blog. I feel I am being very shallow in my writing, Just under the surface of my existence. I am writing the easy to write things, my daily behaviors. What I want to write is what is deep in my thinking, My Soul and my Spirit. But that is difficult for me as I am a very private person and guard my independence greatly. My philosophies of life are not main stream. I am a Traditionalist Conservative with some libertarianism, The Independent part of me. You can Advise me, Give suggestions, Educate, But I will not follow because you said too. I will give good thought and make the decisions for me and follow what I think is correct. I will not try to make decisions for you either. When I started this Blog It was with the understanding I would not make it a Political Cultural Rant. And I will not, Except to say, In todays world everything is political. For me not being political on this site takes away much to write about. The next Philosophy is religion, It is and is not a Philosophy. But it is a very Private thing for me. I have my thoughts that have been thought out over a life time. They are not widely held ideas on our existence and or lack of existence, Nor the existence to come. I am a serious Spiritualist Christian. But I do not wish to push my Ideas onto others, As I may be wrong and everyone needs to find there own way. What I will say is that there is more to this world then physical humans can ever know or understand. But TRUE Knowledge STARTS with a belief in the Trinity of God. You will be able to pick out bits and pieces of Religion and Political philosophy as I write. I will not be always able to help myself. So that leaves the Weather, Prompts and my Daily details to write about. I hope I do not bore you. I will throw a Zinger in the writing every now and then. Dec 2. Today is National Fritters Day! Speaking of Fritters, I frittered the evening away instead of writing Last night. On a more serious Fritter, The wife made Zucchini Fritters last summer, about four times. They were good but you can get to much Fritter. I do not want to fritter this morning away so I better get writing. |
