Casualty of Love

Casualty of Love

Taking a risk in love is inconceivable after 30. Or is it? I have discovered that in any relationship reciprocation is no guarantee. I can be expendable at any moment and after any amount of time. Do we all have different definitions of love and searching for the few whose definition of love mirrors ours? I am most interested in the opposite sex, but this applies in all relationships. I understand that we depend on the degree of honesty of someone outside of ourselves and within ourselves. We must first learn to be honest with self before we can truly be honest with others. It could all be so simple but it seems when it appears to be right, he has to make it hard. Dating today (it may have been like this yesterday too, but I am just now getting into this thing) seems like a battle of the sexes. The only battle I want to take part in with you is one that we are on the same side and the challenges of life is the only enemy we have to conquer each year and forever. I do not want to fight, battle or be at war with you. I love so hard that I get high from it. It makes the fall hard to bear and recover from. I am truly a casualty of love and that is some TOUGH TITTY!

Come on Congress, Politicians!!!!!!!

Come on Congress, Politicians!!!!!!!

Are they not in office to represent their constituents that voted for them and therefore empowering them to hold the offices to which they occupy? I am confused because at the moment our representatives in Congress are fighting for the gain of their political parties and not the best interest of their constituents. I welcome differences in thought but with the common agenda of doing what is best for the greater good our Country. It is unacceptable to be willing to let the Country go the Hell in the name of progressing the agenda of a party. Maybe, I should not blame Congress? WE THE PEOPLE (VOTERS) OF THE UNITED STATES must not allow our action to stop with a vote but to hold our Representatives and Senators accountable to us by writing letters, attending meetings when they are home and showing-up in their offices. It is clear to them that we hold the fate of the political careers in our hands. Let’s become proactive and show that we know and understand it, too. The alternative is to suck-it-up and sit back while the rug is pulled from beneath each of us. After all, the blood is on our hands … It can or cannot be some TOUGH TITTY!!!!
