I imagined as a child, this would be my path. Of course I always thought I wanted to be married and have six little boys—what a concept, I think now. I did marry, had two boys and a girl, perfect! I thought I had what I wanted, the perfect life, a good family, a nice home, and a husband who was the love of my life—I was nineteen. And it was for a while. Now as I look back through illness and loss and life as it inevitably happens to all of us, to me or around me; I still maintain I am a very privileged person.

A sideways hollow in the heavy stone cracks open only once a year. The power is seen lit from the inside when the spirits decide it should be observed. The event starts in early morning and by the time the feast is done, an ache of wanton anticipation covers the crowd. The opening begins when the sacred owl appears.

loneliness not seen
my ideal of heavenly

From IAVA:
“Since 41 Senators turned their backs on our community last week and voted against the Honoring Our PACT Act, veterans have been keeping vigil, 24/7, on the Capitol steps to show support for the bill and we are committed to staying until it passes.We’ve been here through rain and heat, and now we’ve been told that we can’t sit down…veterans who have been exposed to the worst toxic fumes imaginable, some of whom are now disabled, many with back and breathing issues, are standing and keeping the watch until the PACT Act passes.”
What? Can sit down? Where are the freedoms they have fought for? Write your “representatives”!

“This is my comfort zone”, the Seal thought as he greedily slipped the trace of wintergreen chaw between his lip and gum. Before an op he always smiled, remembering his pledge, starting with the words: “I voluntarily accept the inherent hazards of my profession, placing the welfare and security of others before my own…”
As they crouched down to survey the forest ahead, his own body started to relax, no longer the initial high of the hunt, but a longer lasting determination to find the disturbed men responsible for the chaos.

The PACT Act – Promise to Address Comprehensive Toxics Act of 2021
The bill — like many issues related to veterans’ health — had amassed deep bipartisan support, and easily passed the Senate by an 84-14 vote in June. But a technical error required another vote, and this time, more than two dozen Republicans switched sides. The final tally was 55-42 (with three senators abstaining), falling short of the 60 votes needed to overcome a filibuster.
Republicans 1–Veterans 0😡


“Who am I to argue”, I said with my enraptured smile,
Knowing well she would not bore with her look of guile
Of course, there’d be no fun if she just said “I agree”
But then I’d miss adventures of what I was to see
Her ability to amuse and pique my curiosity
Is the best thing I love about her—the constant mystery .
