"NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN"

Last night I went to a move theatre for the first time in 4 months. I expected it to be decent. I believe it deserves to win Best Movie of the Year. I must reach far back to remember anything remotely as real as this one. I felt myself operating in two worlds throughout the movie. The visible presence of Chigurh moving around as an effective and twisted predator (almost a hint of evil-incarnate)wasn't as gripping as the unseen forces recognized by some.

I hope you will take the time to read the newspaper article that alerts us to something worthy of our attention. Warriors are bound to protect ALL innocent and vulnerable people.

I need to work on lightness and fun. In my defense, I do have a sense of humor though it tends to be dark, dry, biting, and few people realize I'm joking.

WHAT'S IT GOING TO TAKE TO TAKE BACK OUR LIVES ?

There seems to be lots of misinformation, confusion, fear, humiliation, shame, and the rest re the fact warriors experience increased levels of 'wear and tear syndromes' as compared to the general population--common enough in this group. I come across far too many people living with unnecessary suffering. The signs are posted all over cyberspace, stamped on the foreheads of people with whom I cross paths in daily life,... Read More
