Last in line, First in line

It was in kindergarten I learned about standing in line. As a kid in school we stood in line to go to lunch, to go to recess, and at the end of the day to get on the bus. For any kid that age the most important place in line was the first place in line. Every one wanted to be first in line and would fight for it.
Even when you got to be first in line you really weren't first the person that was first was always the teacher. So right there at the front of the line you have a obstructed view and being 3 foot nothing that obstructions was the teachers butt.
So I figured the best place in line was at the end of the line. You didn't have to fight for it because know one wanted it. You had a better view of what was ahead of you, no one behind you pushing you or stepping on the back of your heel. You are able to make your own pace life was great at the back of the line. Than the next thing you know every one wanted to be at the back of the line.

I learned it is not where you are in line that is important it is when you understand your place in line is important to you.     

Drive In Movies

In Davenport Iowa where I grew up there was a drive in move called the Oasis Drive-in. I remember going there only once as a kid I think we saw Disney's "The Apple Dumpling Gang". But as a teen I remember sneaking out of the house night and sneaking into the drive-in there was there was a few ways in with out paying one was to hid in the back of a car. Or sneak from the back of one of the near by hotels one way was more obvious than the other. But mine was near a creek bead where slip under the fence and right there was a open space where I sat next to a speaker. I fondly remember seeing Friday The 13th, Footloose, Caddyshack, 48 Hours.

Religion

There is some thing you have to understand about religion. Religion was invention of man to control man and to exclude man at the same time. Those who are proclaimed as the founder of some of the main religions today where just guys trying to make a better life for them selves and to try to find a true connection with GOD.
It was the followers of these spiritual men who took literal every thing they said and used it for their own ambitions. Instead letting it into their soul and find their own connection to GOD. But they would rather force what they believe on every one and make you feel guilty for not feeling the same they force gilt and judge you for it. Witch they have no right to do because they too are flawed.

This is not to put down any one who fallows any religious faith, I have the deepest respect for those who have respect who walk their own path.

This is my view and if any one comes to you preaching my opinions and saying that God one day took me up never to be seen again. It is not true what might be true is that I am shriveled old man sitting in corner waiting for his chocolate pudding in a nursing home. I could also be on some ones mantel in a urn or I could be the dust in the wind.

So just live your life.
                      Be good.
                               Be positive.

And love your self so others can love you.
          

Food Stamps

There was a time I think it might have been during high school. We where on food stamps, and it was not like it is today on the card they give you. It came in a pack printed like money but only on one side. Then it was called the new money. 

What I remember about food stamps is when I was trapped across town at the mall I could get back home with one food stamp. 

You go to the store buy 25 cent pack of gum and the change left over got you him on the bus.

Those where humbling times it is to bad kids today can't experience what those us experance do in the 80's. 

Meditation Museum

It was summer of 2009 I had just started working for a video production company that makes video profiles of business. It was in Silver Spring, Maryland after a month of working on two restraints to sign them.
After my meeting I walk down the street looking for another business to sign up I saw the Meditation Museum. Thought to my self let me try this place it is different than a restraint.   

I walked in and felt something just run down my back. I walked up the stairs the first person I meet was sister Geta. I told her what I was doing she then took me into sister Jenna. I gave my pitch for this video program and thirty minutes later she signed up and she said she had event that weekend to video. After our talk she said if I stick around she would help me with my confidence. So I've been there ever since. The experience of being where I am at in my spiritual gave me a new outlook on life and a better understand of unconditional love.

Reces Pennut Butter Cups

For the past few years it is part of my routine to stop at the convent store and get Reese's Peanut Butter Cups four pack and a Dr. Pepper. Some times I would mix it up getting a Coke.
There are times when the store does not have the four pack so I would get the two pack. I don't like the two pack they taste different I don't know why.
Is it a different batches or recipe it just taste different to me.   

Ethiopian Women

The one thing that interesting to me the most in life is diversity how any people form different walks of life different cultures can come together and work together. The best example of this is the Macy's in Tyson Corner, Virginia during the holiday season.
I worked there stocking the floor and every night unloading the trucks. There where guys from almost every culture in the work at the loading dock. When a group of guys get together the one thing they talk about is women. So the discussion what country had the most beautiful women.

Every one had pointe out different types of women European, Asian, African, South Pacific and it went on every one making a point of why these different women where the most beautiful. Every time some one brings up a nationality of women and makes their point every one would agree.

There was one tall Ethiopian guy came out of the back of the truck and he argued the point the Ethiopian women where the most beautiful, but even when we agreed with his he continued to argue that they were the most beautiful over all. He just would not shut up about it.

So I told him your right Ethiopian women are the most beautiful, but the men are the ugliest in the world.
