Looking For Treasure

When I was young I was a treasure hunter. I would look for treasure, inside the pages of books. I would scan the pages for nuggets, jewels and pearls. Weightless treasure, treasure no one could take away. If I found a nugget, that made my day. On those days, I knew I was growing.

Some books were like treasure chests, there was gold on every page. Those were the best books in the world. Other times I would need to turn many pages and scan many chapters, to find something that was lasting.

Ideas that can withstand the test of time, ideas that are sustainable. Those are the nuggets. Ideas that would apply to any people at any time. When I found an idea that was lasting, I was in heaven. An lasting idea is like a torch of light that will burn forever and illuminate generations.

I grew up absorbing knowledge from my extended family, grandparents, parents, uncles, aunts, friends. So I knew that every person has something of value to offer, every last one.

I realized that if I can read books written by my elders I could learn from their life experience, and prepare myself. I could gain a life’s experience without having to endure it or use up any of my time. It was crazy, I could learn from someone that’s long passed. It was an awesome discovery.

Every person has flaws. When you read a book, take the good and throw away the bad. Its just like eating a juicy apple that has a bad spot, you eat around it and throw away the rest.

In my teens, I discovered Khalil Gibran, a fountain of wealth. I read many books by different people and each one brought more light to my world. I knew then, that I owed it to myself to search more, everywhere. And I keep looking for treasure.

“Football” is not a sport, it’s violence.

Football is not a sport, it’s violence.

In true sports, if someone hits you, it’s either a foul, a penalty, an ejection, or all of them combined.

In a true sport, if someone hits you in the head, that aggressor could get banned for life. In a true sport, violence is not allowed or tolerated.

I challenge the NFL to make their players wear “smart helmets” that can measure impact and tell us exactly what is going on. We can show the details on the big screen live as the players get hit, that way everyone can see, the real score.

The 30 Percent

Sep 14, 2015

When I put all the numbers together, of all the polls I have seen over the last decade on subjects across the board, I notice that 30 percent of Americans, have one thing in common, they are scared.

And their fear makes them be mean to others.

The Right To Choose Is Like The Right To Bear Arms

The right to choose is like the right to bear arms. These rights are about individual freedom. They help people manage their survival. These rights don’t make the individual a killer, so lets not pretend that they do.

The right to choose has nothing to do with killing a baby in the same way that the right to bear arms does not mean that you want to kill a man. If someone said you could not have a gun because one day you will kill someone, that would be a false argument? It’s just as dishonest, to use abortions, as a pretext to take away a woman’s right to decide what to do with her own body during a pregnancy. The right to choose is a most sacred right and belongs solely to the pregnant woman. It is outside of our jurisdiction.

Injecting “ABORTION” into the debate is dishonest and is an invasion of a woman’s natural rights. It is worst than trespassing. It is an offensive, gross act.

The right to choose rightly affords the woman the the freedom to decide the outcome of her pregnancy. What she chooses to do, is between her and her maker.
