Not everybody has gotten to go to jail or prison. But, current statistics tell me that one in four people have, and this is what I'm thinking about that.
It doesn't take a rocket scientist to see that the great American landscape is in the midst of sweeping change and we are more reliant on our families now than we have been in a very long time.
I realize that an end to war is about as inconceivable as us ending our reliance on oil. But, for just a minute - walk with me here.
We all have fathers. Some rock harder than others. Then it's tomorrow.
We have now been actively engaged in a war that has (what I consider to be) questionable motivations, at best, for the better part of my children's lives. I have never stopped being opposed to it, but I had never gotten as close to understanding the price we are paying for it until just the other day.
This is not your father's Internet where you can just stash photos and make posts with some semblance of anonymity. That anonymity was just an illusion anyways. No more tears over the lack of perceived privacy. It's time to take proactive measures to make sure that who you are online is who you want to be, or better yet: Who you really are. Personal Branding is not just for writers and artists anymore.
I am a Breeder. I have children. It is, essentially, Mother's Day. The history of Mother's Day pre-dates our country and some of our oldest conventions. Everybody had a mother at one time, Happy Mother's Day!
Today is the day Pete Seeger turns 91 years old. I think of him often, even when it's not his birthday, because he is one of the most high-impact humans I've ever gotten to spend an afternoon with. I know he is not my grandpa but it sure feels like he's my grandpa. The time I spent with him put a permanent whammy on the way I saw things and made me appreciate the impact that one little person can have on another. He personified what I imagine to be a life spent with no regrets and solid persistence.
