Always been a SmartGeek, but now it's official: I've started studying chess (again)! I've been wanting to play chess for years, but had no one brainiac enough to do it with me, or interested in playing... well, with chess.com, I can play a computer at multiple levels or live games with peeps across the world. I love a game that requires pensive strategy! Did you know that studies show that people that play chess and other strategic mind games are much less apt to develop dementia or Alzheimers? Now you do... so who wants to play!??!! Today I learned castling and En Passant! Wheeeee!

I came across some pictures of He-Who-Cannot-Be-Named and I on my old phone; thought I had deleted them all. And I instantly thought, "How unattractive he is, how could I have ever dated so far below my level?"! Of course, I had chosen to focus on his heart and mind, not his looks, but all of who he is turned out to be unattractive. In fact, unremarkable face, terrible body, and very, very ugly heart. After deleting the photos, I saw a pic of Roy Orbison, and thought, oh my god, T--- is like an uglier version of him! (No insult to Roy or his music). It still blows my mind that I was so taken in by his lies and embellishments, tried to look beyond his obvious physical lacks, and see into his heart, but that turned out to be black and there was nothing to see anyway. When I think of him, I feel disgust, still, so many months later! Yuk! The memories of being physical with him turn my stomach. He's the first person I ever had to close my eyes and fake it with. No wonder I am avoiding getting involved with anyone even now! I will never lower my standards again!
I still pause, recall, and ponder on this day every year. My hope is that all races, creeds, cultures, countries, sexes, and religions will one day realize our sameness-rather than seeing only differences- and unite in love and compassion. It's starts with you (and me) at home. On this day, I honor all countries and peoples of our Earth -across all times- who have lost lives due to wars and other insanity. Sept 11 is a day to think on how we can promote peace and stop killing each other. I send EVERY person and living being on OUR EARTH love, and vibrations of an abundance of all good things... We all deserve love. Peace, brothers and sisters, Peace! |
