People see what makes sense to them, reality notwithstanding. A perfect example of this is art by Guido Daniele you can see here:

I am a widow since 2013 and live by myself in a small apartment. I use a wheelchair to get around, but I wouldn't consider myself disabled. I'm 11 years away from having bladder cancer resulting in a urostomy and I'm doing well. This cancer was a result of having radiation in 1995 because of uterine cancer. So have faith in yourself, a cancer diagnosis is not a death sentence. My first try at blogging was an attempt to help other people with my condition. I am a mother of three married children, and a grandmother to eight gorgeous kids, featuring them often here, and a great grandmother to two as of today, 6/7/25! I enjoy exploring my feelings and like to try the challenges. I like humor, music, movies, games, and some sports. I absolutely appreciate your reading and commenting on my blog. I am happy to read all of your blogs and learn more about you. Please comment however you like, ask whatever, and I'll answer honestly. Thanks for reading! Cheryl
SoCS – 3-27-21 – Run
Run(ning) used to be what we called taking kids to school, going on errands to pay bills, fill the the car with gas, grocery shop or pick up other kids in a carpool, or volunteering at school, and more. I never minded doing any of that running around. I loved driving and it was part of my “job” as a young mother.
“Stay at home mothers” is a misnomer and I still resent it whenever any mom is asked “do you work?” as if when you do not have a monetary paying job you are a lesser person. I did run an exercise class at the school gym for other stay at home moms like me where they could bring their children. I had an exercise routine of walking, and swimming but running? No.

Fandango’s Friday Flashback
SUNDAY PHOTO FICTION – 3-26-2017
I’ve come to the end, just like my search for happiness. I’ve been down this path so many times, and I’m tired of walking it over and over again. I must be crazy. I must set myself up to fail. I certainly haven’t been able to succeed at this, this life of love and happiness I keep hearing about. Hearing, reading, watching in movies and television shows. I don’t think it’s possible. Those movies on the Hallmark Channel . . .girl meets boy, they’re attracted, fall in love, then a conflict arises, they part, but get together again in the last five minutes. The plot is predictable, silly really. Life isn’t like that. Oh and don’t forget the couple is always good looking, one of them has a good job, or money, but somehow their life isn’t complete until they meet “the one”. You know what? I’m sick of looking for the one. Maybe there isn’t a “one” for everyone. Maybe some people are just meant to be alone, and have to make the best of what they have instead of always trying to find someone else to make them complete. This road has ended and so has my search. Time to regroup.

3TC – 3-26-21
A certain misconception has caused a plethora of thelemite actions. It has caused ignorant groups to send their congressional representatives to Washington’s hallowed halls where they act out an area of hatred, lies and endless speechifying, which makes me want to snooze instead of listening to these sorry elected officials.

My granddaughter now first chair in band had her first solo this week!
Tuesday Writing Prompt
Lately sad feelings follow me around like a small pet, nudging my ankles, demanding attention. I think I am strong, ignore it. I’ve been down in these wintery doldrums before and it never ended up doing me any good–all those tears shed over what happened, might happen, fears unfounded, or realized. . .I guess it all comes down to fear in the end. These raindrops of my heart need to be gone, dried in the sun of a new day, and enjoy the new season of spring.

Cyranny’s 1MinFiction 3-24-21
“Keep moving, nothing to see here, riot’s over. Keep walking. . .”
Two chairs turned over in protest, not much of a riot, but someone decided to call 911. It figures nowadays, people panicking over nothing, calling in ridiculous thoughts about what others are doing. There was no noise, no violence, only a small two person demonstration against climate change.

Just plain tired of the pandemic, news, guns, conspiracies, weather disasters, etc etc etc–just tired of the emotional gambit–like I’m “Inside Out”.
