These Protests Don’t Make A Lot of Sense For Me
Not the cause by the methods by which they are doing them. I’ve been keeping up with the protests for the BLM (and others such as Belarus) and keep thinking that the protestors’ methodology are completely wrong.

Harvey Weinstein/Hollywood Thoughts
The hot topic in Hollywood is the aftermath of Harvey Weinstein getting removed from his own company as a result of sexual harassment charges covering over a decade (maybe even more). From this incident, much more of Hollywood’s dirty laundry has slowly been uncovered where other stars, directors, producers, etc. connected with Weinstein are either…

Health: Little By Little
Since starting on my smoothie journey, I have to admit to becoming 100% addicted to it. Right now, I need to have a smoothie every day. I try to make one in the morning or at least after lunch. That provides a fair amount of energy and I can drink it throughout the day. Usually,…

Or is it a reflection upon how…

Marriage and Why I Haven’t Gone Through It
I’m going to turn 38 this coming week and yet I have no one special in my life as a partner. Some people will tell me that I need to find someone soon or that I face the consequence of being single the rest of my life. Others have told me that when I’m ready,…

I have a huge problem though with conspiracy theories when it comes to facts and what the authors of many documentaries want on their agenda. Today, I wanted to share my thoughts on that aspect as it relates to…
