I was wondering if I was now old enough to be myself...Me, I, Moi...

You know?

When you're at work, you put on your professional face and adapt your actions to the organization for which you work...

When you're with your family, you stay away from topics that may be contrary to beliefs, politics, or choices that are routinely made by your family...

Actually, what I've found since I've retired is that I have more time to read, to be fairly up to date on what's happening in the world...

And I've found I've formed some strong feelings about some things, and have chosen to ignore MUCH that has concerned me in the past.

Actually, the main reason I've created this new blog is that I need it as an extension of my present blog. There are some books I read that need to be discussed rather than reviewed... I want to say my personal opinions and share them... I'll also want to review some books from which excerpts may be "mature in content..." And that requires that the blog be properly identified.

So, who knows what you might see if you choose to follow this blog...which will be more sporadic, but may even be more interesting and controversial???!!!

My title is very specific...This blog will contain my personal opinion as opposed to being objective as a professional... Oh, yes, I'll be professional in content...but I will be sharing more content on things I've come to feel strongly about...like human trafficking, violence, the status of women...to name a few...

Let's watch to see what will come up to chat about...

I'm fairly decent at arguing, at least in writing, when I have gotten past my emotional reactions...LOL

But most of all, this will be very informal...

So do BYOCup of whatever... I'll send you a cookie via email...

Advocate Joan Price Provides Senior Erotica...

c. 1800-1803 (Photo credit: Wikipedia ) "You are so beautiful! Your hair is shining. You have a beautiful figure! You feel so good in my arms! I missed you so much! I love you to no end! Let's make love right now!" "Just like a typical guy years younger, Max is always ready to go before I am. "I am so horny," he whispers hoarsely into my ear. I smile, enjoying his eagerness... "I want to kiss you all over," he mumbles into my neck as his hands begin to roam... "There's something I want to do, and I hope you will allow me." he begins, rather formally... "I want to kiss you all over and lick your vagina!" "I gasp, feigning shock. "I'll let you as long as you do it as long and as thoroughly as you did last week." "We did it last week?" ~~~ Ageless Erotica Edited by Joan Price I met Joan on line a number of years ago when she was writing a book. Finding her name in my files, I we...

The Harbinger - Continued Reading... Have you become Interested?

Nuriel Kaplan has convinced the individual to whom he is pitching his book... and she is willing to listen... “All right, Nouriel. Tell me about your mystery.” “It’s not my mystery. It’s much bigger than me. You have no idea how big, or what it involves.”  “And what does it involve?” “Everything. It involves everything, and it explains everything…everything that’s happened, that’s happening, and everything that’s going to happen.”  “What do you mean?”  “Behind September 11…” “How could an ancient mystery possibly have anything to do with September 11?”  “An ancient mystery behind everything from 9/11 to the economy…to the housing boom…to the war in Iraq…to the collapse of Wall Street. Everything in precise detail.” And it’s not only a mystery, it’s a message, an alarm.” “An alarm?” she asked. “An alarm of what?”  “Of warning.” “To whom?”  “America.” “Why?” “When you hear it,” he said, “you’ll understand why.”  ~~~ OK, how good are ...

Emotionally Damaged: Living With Job Burnout - The Beginning - Open Memoir

...a lazy afternoon and my Sunday night shows, especially Madam Secretary have been replaced by ballgames! A shame! I knew something was wrong... It was Saturday and I was home alone... Mom had died and there was nobody to see me cry.... It had been going on for some time. I knew I needed somebody to talk to. I called Nancy, friend and our choir director, who also worked wher e I worked and I thought she could better understand what I needed to say...But she didn't answer... I called my Pastor. He and his wife came, it seemed quickly, and as soon as they came toward me, I cried, "Pray for Me..." I didn't hear any of their words, though. It seemed like one part of my mind was watching...watching the scene of my crying while the Pastor prayed. At the end of the prayer, they started to talk to each other, saying things like, she certainly needs help... For me, I couldn't seem to think coherently to form sentences. I felt like I was in a daze. Then I heard my ...
