I was raised in the Eastern United states and went back - but then came back before September 11th. I enjoy the variety of people as I truly love to write and I know that my last write was perhaps not eye candy. But it was somthing that underneath all that we do and the luxuries that we have - there is a change and denial that is going on right now I think in several areas of United States. I can say that as I never left the US for any reason other that for a situation that happened within my family.
This weekend in Canada it's Victory day. Here is were I ponder on how many do know what that is? We embrace one country whereas I believe in embracing other countries - especially the people. Yet I think we have come such great miles ahead, or was it just something that we thought was - and really it's the same old thing.
Here is where I come in and say it's not where your from - it's where your head and soul are at as do enjoy this from not one vantage but several learn vantages. Yet I am still learning.
Life is about the ability to not judge, but more so in how to gain an understanding and learn from it all. We live on this globe and ever person that is within it has that right of being human. I really don't know any other way to put it.
Not a "know it all", just one that writes as do you.
Peace,
Jack
Hi Jack,good to seeya,hope you are having a good day.It's raining here.Earlier in the wee hours of the morning i was watching Storm Stories and they showed Canada worst of century...the ice storm and the tormado.Dont remember too much after that cause went back to sleep.good post as always.Thanks for sharing,enjoy your evening.
ReplyDeleteI was up and finally the weather here took a turn for the better. This has been up here the worst in history. This time last year you didnt have to figure out what to wear you just knew what the season was.
ReplyDeleteThanks Parrie..and wishing you well there in South Carolina.
Today here in Atlanta,Ga we had a round of stormy weather,the rain has moved on for the time being.Looks like the sun is trying to peep from behind the clouds.Not complaining either way, because both has their way of helping nature.:))
ReplyDeleteI totally agree with you Jack ;-D... "Life is about the ability to not judge, but more so in how to gain an understanding and learn from it all. " .. Have a wonder filled week-end my friend... Namaste' ((((((Hugs))))))!
ReplyDeleteVery much so Peeks.
ReplyDeletePower of thought Jack,I agree.
ReplyDeleteHow do the people of Canada celebrate Victory Day?
ReplyDeleteAnd the same to you Peeks
ReplyDeleteWe all have that given right yes.
ReplyDeleteSusan it's something that goes back with the old traditional ties with the crown and how we celebrate it is with family and with friends. We really are our own country and as time goes on it's a tradition that like many other countries still exists but it's not how it used to be as far as say two generations ago.
ReplyDeleteI think it's just there for people to enjoy the three day weekend now a days...
we all judge others to some extent, it's human nature, the key is be aware when it happens and try to refrain
ReplyDeleteI assume that you're speaking of the victory over the Nazis? In the U.S., some people forget that Russia was an ally.
ReplyDeleteSo true Danette...
ReplyDeleteHi Cal, I think that perhaps a shift of thoughts might be a good thing.
ReplyDeleteHi Jack... I think maybe you have a mispell in your blog.This weekend is Victoria Day weekend not Victory weekend in Canada
ReplyDeleteVictoria Day celebrates Queen Victoria's birthday (May 24th). Canada is still a member of the Commonwealth of Nations, of which the Queen is head.This is the earliest that we've celebrated Victoria Day.
I know it does...I was not prepared to do a write to what Victory Day was about. You have said it so well.
ReplyDelete(( hugs ))....have a great weekend !
ReplyDeleteYou as well....
ReplyDeleteHi Jack, We had Armed Forces Day on Saturday. So little mention in the media to honor our military. I always enjoy what you have to say. Another week is about to begin. Enjoy it. Take care, Sandy
ReplyDeleteThank you Sandy,
ReplyDeleteYes another week and the sun does shine...
