Silence is not always bad!

What can be said? Travel, holidays events, frustration with the failure of the current administration to put God aside and work toward truly humane goals, election lies and exposure of ignorance of our Constitution, job change, self improvement, family and lover all have taken precedence this last year. There have been a lot of things I wanted to discuss, but time to do so and give them the consideration they deserve was just not there. So I opted to be silent on the web. Well, not really. If you hop over to the NAFA Forum (you’ll probably have to join it) you’ll see a lot of my comments. Most of them are silly fun quips between friends and comrades. There have been a few out burst, but not like in previous years.

In any case, I’ve not abandoned this blog . . . yet. I’ve embarked on a self study of critical thinking that fills most of my down time and I have several books piled up to be read. I have to tell you that the effort toward improving my critical thinking skills has been challenging. I’m not a stupid person by any means but I have a lot of egocentric barriers to my thinking that lean towards self-centeredness and interferes with a fair-minded effort. This has been a real kick in the ass. There are tons of these self-centered shards in my thinking and I’m spending a lot of time picking them out of my neuron-pathways.

So bare with me as I prod along this year. Keep checking for my latest perspectives and please, please feel free to jump in and hound my comments with your own take on the subject. Comments are welcomed!!!

Just a Ponder

History is what was and the cause of what is. We can never know what it could have been. I think of this every time I think how different the world would be today if Al Gore had won his own state in his bid for president in 2000.
