What do you want to be free of in your life?

"Life without liberty is like a body without a spirit." - Kahlil Gibran

"Everything that is really great and inspiring is created by the individual who can labor in freedom"- Albert Einstein

“There are people who put their dreams in a little box and say, "Yes, I've got dreams, of course I've got dreams." Then they put the box away and bring it out once in awhile to look in it, and yep, they're still there.” - Erma Bombeck


Here's to fighting for freedoms, liberties and the pursuit of happiness in your own life.

Oh to be young. . .

. . . and have so many possibilites to be whatever you wish. 

We all still have these possibilities, but we often forget.

I'm going to hell

but I am a little annoyed by all the Michael Jackson coverage.

I used to be a big fan, and I do feel badly that he died alone, broke and under a lot of allegations.

BUT, I am annoyed by what the media focuses on, the over analyzing and the 24 hour news cycle that chews people up, spits them out and then feeds that spit to us over and over. 

I am troubled that our culture only starts to focus on being good to each other when there is a tragedy or appreciates others after they die.

I feel badly for Farrah Faucett, Ed McMahon and other people who have lost loved ones and whose stories and grief were swept under the carpet or deemed less important, and most importantly I am bothered by the stories we ignore.

I know I'm not my normal witty charming self today,  but . . . I'm just sayin'

Ya Lublu tibia

My friend finally brought me the Russian Rosetta Stone.  Can't wait to find 5 minutes to open it and see how much I can butcher the language.

Oh. boy, I am starting to have flashbacks of our trip to Russia. . .my brain turned to mush not hearing anything I understood for 10 days.

 

This was a photo I took on the trip- whether it's title is
"JET LAG"

or

"SLOWLY GOING INSANE"

is up to the beholder.
