“We must learn that truth may be expressed in a thousand ways, each one yet be true.” Swami Vivekananda
“When you die you go alone, and the only light to accompany you derives from the spiritual practice or positive acts you have done.” Dalai Lama
Will the clown who put 15 days with 100 hours each into this week please leave. What a rotten week at work. I really need to find another job. I am so sick of the pettiness at that place.
One of my pet peeves is hatred and people who incite others to act in hateful manners. There has been a lot of attention paid recently to the McCain/Palin attempts to incite their followers by making hate comments about Barak Obama palling around with terrorists. I mean the nerve of the guy for being 8 years old when Ayers was a Weatherman and the kid probably wanted to go out and play rather then trying to stop him. Eight year olds are so irresponsible aren’t they? Obama served on a school board with Ayers. He put the welfare of children first. He didn’t pick the board he was a member of and the chance to do something to help underprivileged children was more important then making a grandstand gesture. Obama has denounced the violence and terrorism that Ayers espoused in those days. He has denounced the racism and hate mongering of his former pastor Jeremiah Wright. Palin said that Obama didn’t walk out of the sermons. The fact that he wasn’t there when those sermons were made does make it a little difficult to walkout on them.
What are McCain and Palin afraid of? Maybe the fact that Clinton left office with a surplus and us not engaged in wars and Bush has destroyed that surplus, gotten us involved in wars that can not be won, and the economy is tanking big time. They can’t defend the Republican record so they are resorting to hate mongering because they have no plan to help us at all. Health care crisis? Their solution is to tax our health insurance and give the money to the insurance companies. When you have no plan and can’t defend eight years of ruining our economy and jeopardizing our safety and the world’s opinion of us then I guess hate mongering is all you have left. Truly pathetic.
I’ve fiddled a bit with the layout of this blog and will probably do more later. Now I’m going to grab some supper and settle down with those knitting needles and watch Stargate Atlantis. Nothing like science fiction to get my sense of balance back and destress from a stressful week.
The Dalai Lama is recovering from surgery and I will definitely be keeping that good man in my prayers.

Never fear, your younger brothers will always act in your best interests while singing your praises and never ever insulting you.
Is this like my birthday when you guys were nice to me until 8 o'clock and I was really beginning to think that I was experiencing the "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" pod replicates of my brothers?
