I’m a writer, storyteller, and the kind of person who makes words do cartwheels for a living. When I’m not crafting brilliant prose, I’m probably staring at a blank page, convincing it to be interesting. Follow for wit, wisdom, and occasional punctuation debates!
We love to blame the rich for our societal woes. But we’re the ones that made them rich by buying their shit. Er. I mean stuff.
Stop the materialism mindset and be content.
There will always be rich and poor. Always.

We have more information about the affects of bullying than ever in history. We teach them to every age group. But we have more bullying than ever.
I think that is a sad commentary on the human psyche.

People are stupid. They think they can see the difference between the truth and a lie, but that is seldom the case. And it makes them easier to fool. -wizards first rule, Terry Goodkind. (Paraphrased)

People are so angry. Life is way too short to invest so much of your time and energy on arguing with people you disagree with.

Social media and people’s opinions are the root issue with anxiety in our world.

My issue is with the word distributed. That suggests someone decides what happens with other people’s wealth. And no matter where you fall politically, with great power comes even greater corruption.
Equitable distribution of power, money & labor among the people seems bizarre to the right wing.
Person on disability be kept alive at a high standard of living is bizarre to the right wing.
A woman being paid equal to a man is weird to them much less wealth being distributed equally for all.

Too much political shit. Show me pictures of a cute animal. I don’t care if they’re cats, dogs, or whatever. There’s just way too much angst in the world.

The only thing missing in our world is nothing. We’re so entitled we think everyone should be as ignorant as us.

Of course, I stop and look at disgusting and gross things too. Just to feel the repulsion rise up in my chest, and so I can share the story.

You might say that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. But frankly, there is a justifiable standard. If it does make you stop and look, it’s probably not beautiful.

There will be wars and rumors of wars. And the end is yet to come.
Let’s all just relax for a moment and tell the government to do the same.
