I am opening this blog again. I will attempt to do this daily. I write in a journal daily but I would like our son or our grandkids to be able to read my musings. Yesterday was the US Election. Like my wife always says, “we get the government we deserve”
The US and maybe the world has always had a boogeyman or boogeymen. This year in no rank order:
- Immigrants - This country was built by immigrants. There was a time that the Irish and Italian immigrants were the boogeymen. Today it’s brown people from Central America. Watch the economy tumble when we deport the immigrants.
- LGBTQ - We have come so far in accepting this community. We have friends in this community. The fear mongering will only drive the young community back into hiding. What a loss to our culture if this happens.
- Women and their rights - I am standing here knowing I am the man I am because of the women in my life. There are too many to list and too many to thank right here. At the top of the list though is my wife. She is an inspiration to an entire flock of people. If you listed all the things Jesus would do, you could use Mary Jewell in place of Jesus and the list would match. When we accept the women can lead, and women can govern we’ll become a stronger country. That stars with all the young men out there right now. Give up your ego and treat women with respect and reverence. You will become a better man for it.
Yesterday after a crazy weekend of work in NYC. I ran 6 miles in 57 minutes. I started off feeling great but then lost energy midway through. I pushed on and kept to my program. To adde mileage I’m doing it organically. Finish a run x.5 miles or less I stop. If I finish a run x.51 or more I keep running until I hit the next mile. Yesterday day my run ended at 5.54. I added on to make it an even 6.
Later in the day I did 15 minutes of Yoga.
It’s a good life…..
