Watched all three "Hangover" films back to back this past week.

I always thought they'd be brain rot.

I was wrong.

If #AlbertCamus were alive today he'd own all three films.

I don't need stained glass in a church. Nature provides. 🌛🍁🌜

invisible sun,
It gives its heat to everyone,
There has to be an invisible sun,
That gives us hope when the whole day's done."

If #UEFA is as corrupt as corrupt can be, but my team has a #ChampionsLeague game today, is it immoral or unethical for me to watch the game?

Arrived just in time for the cold weather.

And still unbeaten in all matches this season!

Mia San Mia! 🤘😎🤘

Taught me son at an early age to remember to always look up.

Now he sends photos like this.

I am a fortunate father.

I love this time of year. The Veil feels thinner. (I mean, if you believe in that sort of thing.😱)

Here's a pic of part of my meditation space. Sharing a little light.

Anyone focusing on #Samhain or #folkmagic instead of regular #Halloween? Curious to see others' approach.

Haven't been able to get out for birding as of late, so here's another pic from the days when I had canines as clients. (And for the record? I think #poodles may be smarter than most humans. 😊)

I like the remake of #StephenKings #It. Yet, even though the first was made for TV, and occasionally has some horrific acting, it's still my favorite. Why? Tim Curry's performance is genius, and most importantly, the characters really make one care for them. Worth a watch this #Halloween season.

Before the #fibromyalgia kicked in, was studying to train #dogs. One of the best jobs I've ever had. Why? Dogs are honest. I admire that.

This client's name was Ralphie. He OWNED the street wherever he roamed.

Figured this image would bring a smile to anyone's face. 😊

Want nighttime (or nap time) bliss? Yes, there's heating pads and electric blankets. But I've experienced the wonders of a good, old fashioned, hot water bottle for the past 48 hours, and must say:

My love, where have you been all my life!?!

Does #Tarot have magical properties that predict the future?

Doubtful.

Does it contain archetypal imagery that might unlock new doors in one's subconscious?

I would state, "Yes."

If you would like a reading, just say the word. 🌛😎🌜

"You're just a sinner, I am told,
Be your fire when you're cold,
Make you happy when you're sad,
Make you good when you are bad,
I'm not a human, I am a dove,
I'm your conscience, I am love..." - Prince
