June 27th. Your Self-Fulfilling Prophesy
The BET Awards honoring achievements of Black Artists in Music, TV & Movies is tonight June 28th on the BET Network https://www.bet.com/shows/bet-awards.html Normally, I would take the day off & not post anything on the 28th of any month, but this falls under the category "If you See Something, Say Something." In the National Conversation respecting Race Relations it is necessary for each & every person to do their part. Yesterday just before I logged out & turned off my comp

Happy Juneteenth. Rest in Peace Mary Boer <3
Juneteenth is the annual Celebration of word reaching Galveston, Texas that two years earlier President Abraham Lincoln had signed the Emancipation Proclamation & all slaves were now free. This Juneteenth, I won't be online very much. I will be joining the celebration of the life of my Mother-In-Law, Mary Boer, the artist who painted this painting. Mary died on June 12 after a lengthy stay in Hospice Care with Alzheimer's Disease. Mary Boer was a prolific painter. All of us

ETHICS
UPDATE. It's gonna be a bit quiet around here for a while as I'm currently in my Life & Health Insurance Re-Certification period for 2021. Every two years, Insurance Agents must do Continuing Education & Re-Certification to keep current on changing Legislation that affects Insurance Policies. While it is highly unlikely that I will ever choose to sell Insurance Policies due to my long-standing belief that Insurance Companies are Pure Evil, & being a big proponent of Socializ

Bush 41 Points of Light & the Clinton Foundation. Happy Birthday George H.W. Bush
Repost. Honesty, Integrity and ETHICS used to mean something in American Politics. Yesterday on June 12, 2019, on what would have been Bush 41's 95th Birthday, the Bush 41 Presidential Library threw him a Birthday Party fit for a much loved & RESPECTED Leader. The 2016 Presidential Elections were such a stunning disgrace, with BULLYING front & center on the National Stage, I was inspired to do something about it.

HollyWeird & the Inexplicable Rise of Donald Trump
UPDATE. Great Leaders are unifying, not divisive. Even when philosophical differences exist, Politics should not be so divisive that it pits people against each other. Our country is the UNITED States, not the Divided States of America, yet the divisions caused by the #ApprenticePresident could not be more obvious. This begs the Question "Is it time to Elect our 1st Female President?" While 2020 did have an impressive Roster of extremely-well-qualified Female Presidential

Emotional Intelligence Equals Equality
Racism. Sexism. Antisemitism. Islamophobia. Xenophobia. Homophobia. Transphobia. Misogyny. All are forms of PREJUDICE. Prejudice is the Phenomenon & Discrimination is the Manifestation of Prejudice. Emotional Intelligence is the Solution. It is virtually IMPOSSIBLE to BULLY others when you live your life with Emotional Intelligence. Emotional Intelligence is not about walking around sobbing & crying - although I haven't been able to stop crying since the biggest BULLY on the

Slander of a Female Police Woman on Channel 13
Libel Law is a requirement for a Degree in Journalism. While I am not an Attorney, I do have a degree in Journalism & have studied LIBEL LAW. Channel 13 just had the NERVE to render a Female Police Officer who was involved in a Local Police Brutality Case several years ago UNEMPLOYABLE on the very day that George Floyd is being laid to rest here. Excessive Force, Abuse of Power & Police Brutality are the topic of discussion & ABC's Local Channel 13 had to dig deep to dredge

Caring at Time of Death. Rest in Peace George Floyd
UPDATE. George Floyd will be laid to rest beside his Mother at Houston Memorial Gardens today. His death will not be in vain, but will bring about much needed change here in Houston, across the Country & in the World. Everyone is so hopeful that this will bring about long-over due change. Yesterday our Republican Governor did what a decent Leader of any Party does at a time like this. He came to Houston to meet with the Family of George Floyd. Below are some thoughts I had

Equality Equals Peaceful Coexistence. Rest In Peace George Floyd
UPDATE. As Houston prepares to pay our finals respects to George Floyd & our hurting Nation tries to heal, everyone should strive for Peaceful Co-Existence. The individual Officers who murdered George Floyd acted as "Judge, Jury & Executioner" in effect handing out the Death Penalty over a $20 dollar bill. To say that not all of the Protests have been Peaceful is the understatement of the year. Would you be surprised to learn that this is the exact same thing Women had to fa

This is What It Sounds Like When Doves Cry. Happy Birthday Prince
3:45 Central Standard Time. It's still Raining Purple as the marches for Black Lives Matter in the murder of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor & others continue in Minneapolis, Hometown of Prince, & in Cities across the Country. In the National Conversation on healing Race Relations, Prince led the way through his artistry: bridging both the Gender & Racial Divide. In honor of Prince for his Birthday, I thought I would re-visit Purple Rain - which happens to be in my "Facebook Mem
