Oh This World

Social Media exposes all of us to EVERYTHING that is going on in this world.  I don't know whether this is a good thing.  It is too much.  So much of it = we can do nothing about.  Helpless and guilt is what I feel.  Out of control.  People living their lives in a haze with very uncertain futures. 

In my own little bubble of life:  Things are changing.  In the midst of such horror in this world I have a good life.  How is that possible?  I guess I am a survivor.  I guess I am strong.  I feel lost with the world the way it is.  But......I feel happy every single day.  I problem solve every single day.  I try to help others almost every single day.  I hope that I am a good listener.  I find that I have to keep my mouth shut about many things these days.  I seem to be listening to my sixth sense.  I have been making the right decisions lately as well. 

This is simple and trivial.  One of those right decisions was = something told me to go to the Goodwill.  There I found a very heavy, large desk for $9.99 and a entertainment center for .99.  That is right.  .99CENTS.  Unbelievable.  I had a great deal of trouble getting them to my house.  It was a challenge but with that challenge came the generosity of friends.  In those hours I realized there is such hope in life.  Kindness, selflessness and love.  HOPE.  It turned out to be a great day.  Sore muscles but then again = so what.  I gave my treasured furniture that I have had for over 22 years to these wonderful people.  John and Tiffany.  Helped them move too. 

Here are some proud pictures of my new furniture.  My house looks so much better because of these new pieces.  What a discovery.  It makes me feel safe and sound in my little bubble of life. 

And there are two shots of my little monster  Billie Jean.  She is now 2 years old with a huge personality.
