It is a little bit boring lately so I have to indulge in my favorite passtime. Reading and learning about how to make our world a better place.
As we are agonizing with global terrorism, I figured maybe it is time for us to look at the possibility of being run and led by a force with strength and finesse. With firm yet gentle hand. With sharp and bright mind but also equipped with compassion and maternal instinct.
In short a norturing ability to see growth and progress that sustains our ever volatile and ever changing world. A woman.
Correct me if I am wrong but is there a better option at the moment than to consider a female leader to steer our country to greatness?
Today we are both attacked from local and global agression of which mostly is based on religious dominance. We see the negative impact of our previous policies due to lack of transparency from our leaders. We seem to be swimming in the oblivion of ignorance. Worse our CONSTITUTION is run over and violated by current administration specially in the laws of immigration. But it seems there is nothing we can do. Or is there?
Would all this be solved if we had a woman president? Perhaps not, but the truth of the matter is that we do have many women from all points of the earth, from all points of time who has earned more glory than those of their male counterparts on their time.
I will enclose all of them for your perusal but just google WOMEN RULERS OF ALL TIME and you will be exposed to so many great women leaders that has proven their strength and resilience, character and integrity, power and force to glory.
Want to challenge me? Go ahead be my guest.
Thank you all for your contributions, oppositions, and or opinions.
It's amazing that the highest number of homeless people isn't in the first world but the third world, besides South America and Africa as the worst, India, Pakistan, Philippines and Indonesia has the highest numbers.
What surprises me is the fact that the richest country, like Switzerland has a considerable amount of homeless people.
Check the record posted and it's mind boggling.
We can donate, 41 billion to Ukraine with no contingencies and we can't get this problem eliminated.
But one of the major cause of this situation is because of the mental facilities that were shut down during the Reagan administration.
Note: If you criticize or expose the problems of any country you MUST check your own first otherwise you're being hypocritical.
(I think it's fake news but, I will double check).
Willy blogged about his arrest which was a legitimate case of drunk driving.
Now the court DROPPED the charges because the footage is missing?
What the hell, this is absurd. For years and years we never needed a camera footage to make charges legitimate.
HE WAS DRUNK. MF.
What a corrupt system we have.
I'm so mad.

Seafood is my favorite. I've eaten in one of the best Seafood restaurants in the Caribbean, Mediterranean, Opera at the Hotel Intercontinental in Sydney, Award winning eat all you can Lobsters and crabs at Rios in Vegas, but nothing beats this sumptuous delicacy in the Captain's Crab in the Midwest. And with $120 dollars per head in some places, this is one of the least priced but most delicious I've been into. Combined crab legs, Prawns, Mussels, Clams and Crowdads.
Yummy.
This was last Sunday.
For me a big yes. As a believer may I greet everyone a very Merry Christmas and peace to all as well.
What a fitting time to celebrate the birth of our Lord Jesus, who's teachings are all about being good.
I do know that Atheism (disbelief or lack of belief on the existence of God) and Agnosticism (the existence of God is unknown or unknowable) are also part of humanity. I am not here to disrespect the belief or non thereof of everyone but to share mine and why I do.
I do wish that we can all share our opinions on this topic in a civil and mature way. I am lucky I live in a country that protects this right, the right to believe or not believe. In your country, do you have a choice?
Thank you all for reading and or sharing your opinions if you do.
If you have doubts, please read the two books written by1. Dr. Brian Weiss, Many Lives Many Masters; and Dr. Eben Alexander, Proof of heaven. That's if you are in search for knowledge and have an open mind..
NOTE: FOR THOSE WHO BELIEVE. EXPLANATION ISN'T NEEDED AND THOSE WHO DON'T BELIEVE, EXPLANATION IS IMPOSSIBLE.
So I learned just now about this movie. Of certain characters called ABC. What a misunderstanding you're about to see. A love affair involving these three. They are all from different lands. With cultural and religious difference.
C, the male protagonist is from England, B, is of course a beautiful Indian while C, hmmmn an American. Now so the story begins to unfold. A relationship that was foretold. C and A were friends and nothing more, to think of anything else is terrible.
Why? Here is the plot I can be sure of that. A never seeks for anything like love. She's so happy and contented in life and wish nothing to ever change that. She seeks knowledge that's for sure. UFO, the Universe and so much more. Love? That's preposterous, she's not looking and that's absolute.
So this movie is a joke, with all the misleading messages and plots.
But for me I know how it ends, B and C as lovers again. They deserve each other till the very end.
Live happily ever after. And A, too is full of joy forever.
Note: For real, I am never jealous nor seeking any love. I never will. I'm happy as I am. Single and independent.
It will take years before appeal is decided upon and her chances of having the verdict overturned isn't good.
"Anyone appealing has an uphill battle,” says Rebekah Sullivan, a Washington, D.C., attorney who focuses on family law. Most likely, the lawyers who spoke to TIME said, Heard’s team will argue some legal error was made during trial and will try to overturn the verdict on the basis that the jury was influenced by things they saw and heard outside tge courtroom."
From the latest news.What Legal Experts Think of Amber Heard's Chances on Appeal

The decision was for Johnny against lying Heard.
Justice is done. 15 million for Johnny, 10 for compensation and 5 for punitive damages.
Now I am not sure what impact this case does to both of them but I have a feeling Johnny is in good shape.
She was found to have done a malicious act by lying about her defamation report as published by the Washington Post.
This drama which has become one of the most watched show on television is going to affect how this relationship squabbles will be handled. I'm sure to play and claim as a victim will be thoroughly investigated and questioned if only to punish the aggressor.
The global meltdown of 2007 to 2011 (Part 4, my saga as a cancer survivor)
Just when you think you're on top of the world, you're life comes crushing down with so high a voltage you'd feel better off without surviving it.
That's exactly how I felt when right about 2007, January to be exact, we were trying to sell the house that we bought two years before and couldn't fetch a single offer considering how it's located in one of the best area in Sonoma County. Located on a street that's not busy and with a view of the city, it was a very surprising discovery. Unlike in 2005 when we sold our house that I had it built to my specs including the quality of the carpet and my walked in closet, people were actually waiting on the lawn to make a bid just to be the next owner. Surprisingly, we sold it way more than what we expected. Even though it's location is of prime value, very near St. Eugene's where we belong amongst other 6,000 parishioners and where my son attends, we had to sell it because we needed a bigger house for my growing lovely children. Time changed and the economic downturn of the US was deeply felt especially by me when we couldn't get any offer on this house in 2007.
To get the story short, my husband and I felt the first wave of this global downturn right off the bat. It didn't feel too grievous and we thought it'd be temporary. Our family situation was changed dramatically the year before as my husband and I decided that one of us must stop working in order to continue and maintain our children's much needed guidance. We both agreed that I'd be full time since I was making a bit more than him and my job didn't require us to relocate to the West Coast where he was working as an engineer at the well known and historical Granite Rock in Aromas.
For lack of hindsight, we never foresee that the world was in the brink of another economic fall out akin to that of 1939.
Compounded by my relentless desire to provide my children a very ideal school and growing environment, I failed to see that our family that was solid rock both professionally and economically will soon to collapse. It did. Although we lost almost 60 grand, we were able to sell it and moved on. It caused a lot of dent on my 401k but survived.
Through the invitation of my niece we moved to Bakersfield. We could buy a house in a gated community twice the size of that from the North Bay and half the mortgage. We were happy . Sold BMWs while my husband worked again and was offered a better position and quite paid better than his last job. Lo and behold, we'll soon find out our situation got worse because the house we just bought of 300 hundred grand became half of the value by 2009. Devastated and angry. Bitterly regretful and helpless, we got divorced. A most painful experience. The acceptance of what to be salvaged is far worse than to end it all. At least that's how I felt but it didn't dwell on me that long. I found inspiration on the fact that my children are so grown up and my only son seems out of the danger of being hauled into the road of drugs and other dangerous vices. I found solace in being single and committed to make my life better in spite of the adversaries the whole world was experiencing. I resorted into writing poems about my life from when I was young to the present. The internet played a great role on this new venture. I joined in the web and found solace on writing all my frustrations, disappointments and failures. I was beginning to see how my life was profoundly changing and I needed to be stronger than I ever was. Especially now that my cancer came back. That was in October of 2010.
To be continued. Thanks all for reading.
Note: my personal blog
This is not a fear mongering post.
I'm only concerned about the possibility.
Question: are we in the verge of a global war?
I hope not, but witnessing what's happening between Russia and Ukraine, it's a possibility.
If Russia is left alone to do what it wants, what stops China from pursuing the same goal in Taiwan?
Will the super powers just watch it happen?
Anyone?
You've got to be so freaking out of your mind to write such a lie.
Then again as far as I'm concerned you're brainless.
Then you follow it up with a claim saying " you're playing with the big boys and fail completely."
My gosh what? How ignorant can you be?
Then you post a video of Trump and that China man, and that's your basis on claiming, Trump tried to be a dictator and failed?
You've earned the crown of the worst liar there ever is. And pathetic as you will always be. Mao look alike.
Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder so it's said and chemistry is important when you meet.
But exactly what qualities are you looking for in your search for the one?
I first heard this line from the late Elizabeth Taylor and when I heard her reasons, didn't make any sense to me at all.
I must have been 33 years old and I felt at that time that my life truly began way before that. From her perspectives it didn't hit on me then what she truly meant until 20 years ago.
I was born from a very poor family which made me look at things very differently from others. I worked hard, didn't follow cultural values of getting married to someone chosen by my parents and elders who grew up with arranged marriages. Complete with selection from suitors who is subject to scrutiny as far as providing a good life for me. No romance, no love to consider. I figured if I would go to school and get me a good job, I'd be more than capable to do that myself without being a dependent on anyone. My father and mother agreed. With their support and scholarship I was able to graduate with honors from elementary, high school, college and masters' degree.
To cut the story short, I succeeded in materializing my dreams. Achieved my goals and at 24, my life truly started as I planned. Traveled the world and very happy and felt very blessed. My children were born and had so much fun. I felt blessed and thought life was complete.
When I heard this saying, for the first time, I didn't understand at all.
Fast forward and after so many ups and downs, losing houses and investments, getting divorce and overcome not one but two cancers, it finally makes sense to me.
Life truly begins at 50, or at least for me even 60.
