Boxed In?

Well, I’m resting on the warm stones after having…uh…watered the garden.. Who needs a box anyway? And todayl, mama wants to offer a  very thoughtful and surprising take on what is happening on this crazy planet. A short interview with a very respected historian who is able to see a different view of our world situation from ours. Surprising!

Silence? Not Easy

That was an exhausting speech…. Well, now that the USA has broken relations with its closest allies and friends, stopped funds for education, medical research, science research, women’s rights, children’s vaccines against measles, polio and more, and in too many ways to mention here, set our country back to the middle ages, I will honor Wordless Wednesday with two words only: Stay aware.

A Serious Selfie

Well, I chose this old selfie because it conveys the seriousness with which I am checking out the world from my present vantage point. So much on my/our minds and from my view, the world has received a BIG wake-up call. Take a deep breath and try to have a thoughtful and sane Sunday ....

Outrageous that the president of the United States would be so rude and lie, lie, lie to the most courageous man on tbis earth right now! I don’t care if NO ONE reads this blog every again. I cannot keep silent when MY country is abandoning all its allies, its protection from those wishing to harm it and to work with it against oligarchs and aggression, and I am in total agreement with those who …
