I LOVE MEL GIBSON

 


Sadly, we have become a nation of SAMENESS.
We live in a time of Homogenized TV and
Political Correctness -it makes me wanna SCREAM!

It's like High School all over again - you remember
High School and its Social Structure; where only a
select few are chosen to represent
"THE NORM" and everyone that falls short
of the standard are labeled "NOT GOOD ENOUGH",
"FREAK" etc.

Those were fun days weren't they?????

How have we become a Nation where it appears
EVERYONE is buying their cloths at "The Gap"
The Individual is not celebrated anymore...
I sadly wasn't old enough to be raised
during the PUNK era - but man are we
in serious need of that fad coming back...
Sorry to ramble...I will get on with it...

This morning I watched the interview Mel Gibson gave
and I JUST LOVED IT... When I watched it I gotta say
it was better than drinking my ritualistic morning cup
of coffee.

Mel has always been and still is not afraid to speak
"his own truth" and I commend, applaud AND
SALUTE him for it.

(BTW - I agree with Mel - the reporter was being
an A-hole)

Yah, know... I just had a thought... do you know who Mel
reminds me of? He's like that CRAZY family member
every family has - you know the family member that
was apparently born without the "EDIT" button - or
is so old the button doesn't work anymore...

OKAY, OKAY...
I have to admit that when one is on the receiving
end it's not so good BUT as an
on looker its PRICELESS and REFRESHING.

AGAIN, thanks Mel Gibson for your honesty!!!!!

Peaks and Valleys

Image
You've all heard the old adage, "Life is about Peaks and Valleys." Its origin is unclear but we've all heard it. It's an emotional pick me up. A motivator to keep going. I know I’ve said some derivation of it to a friend when they've needed comfort AND admittedly at times the person I’m telling it to is myself. There are different variations like: “Life ebbs and flows” “What goes up must come down” "Highs and lows"  "To and fro" "Good and bad times"  Because I'm a visual person I like the image that is created with “Peaks” and “Valleys” P eAKS are by definition the highest point. I like thinking of the summit of a mountain. Its symbolic of the times when I'm feeling positive and on top of the world. When everything I do is working. These are the "wins" in our liv es, the "high" times BUT we can not surviv e at this altitude for v ery long because a...

Gunshots and Confusion. What could have happened but didn't.

Have you ever imagined what you would do if you came face to face with a gunman? Well, I have and the scenario in my mind usually ended with me ducking for cover. The real-life version however was completely different. What should have been an uneventful stroll down the street turned into a chaotic, sad, and yet life affirming event. Last Friday was to be the beginning of a celebration-filled weekend for me and I couldn't wait to get the party started. Friday night was going to be a fun, small, surprise party that I had arranged for my sister-friend and Saturday my husband and I were going to celebrate our wedding anniversary.  The clock on my dashboard read 3:05, I wasn't finished shopping for these two very special people and at this moment time was not on my side. INTUITION. THANK GOD I LISTENED. I live in Studio City and absolutely love shopping at the stores in my neighborhood but not the traffic. I have a tried and true way of navigating around it, by parking...

Forgiveness

Image
Some of you may not know this but my father was murdered, he was killed when I was still a child. I think this is one of the reasons why I find myself drawn to real life CSI shows on TV and most news stories involving homicide and our legal system. Recently, I came across one story that is a truly inspiring example of forgiveness. The story revovles around the Whitaker family. The family consists of parents Patricia and Kent and their two son's, Kevin and Thomas. In Sugarville, Texas on December 10, 2003 the family was celebrating Thomas' college graduation from Sam Houston State University. Kent and Patricia had given their son a Rolex as a graduation present and the whole family went out to dinner. After dinner the family came home and upon entering the home they were each shot by a gunman who had been laying in wait for the family. Kevin Whitaker was pronounced dead at the scene, and Patricia and Kent were airlifted to a nearby hospital. Patricia subsequently died ...
