Just a dad trying to keep his sanity in this modern world.

Dweller along the south shore of Lake Erie, I'm a thinker, a philosopher, a LGBTQ ally (gay son and brother so homophobia is a deal breaker) and oh yeah a finance guy! Love is the ultimate super power! #cle #history #politics #spiritualism #love #genx #goldendad #bourbon #clevelandsports #baseball #football #basketball #hockey #trackdad #bibliophile #introvert

Transition times of year bring me a sense of wonder. Even on a sunny, warm day such as this, the moment the sun hastens into the west, a taste of the frigid days to come can be tasted on the wind.

Nature, in its own stately way, eases into its season of demise. Soon it will go to sleep, only to awaken at the gentle touch of spring. It is in these days that I can slow down, be present, and remember who I am. I'll try to hold onto this feeling until the holiday season whisks me away. 🍁🍂🌰

It's funny to me when politicians complain that we have "too much democracy" and that too many young people showed up to vote.

Rick Santorum Gets Weird With ‘Very Sexy’ Take On Why Republicans Keep Losing - NewsBreak

The far-right pundit comes out against “pure democracy” after another bad night for the GOP.

Poets and writers have for generations written of seeking the wisdom and knowledge of the stars. This wisdom and knowledge is ancient and deep but it is most often of things past and ideas primal. Under the light and warmth of the sun, under blue skies and gentle breezes I instead seek the wisdom and knowledge of the waters. I listen to what the babbling brook and the meandering creek tell me. They collect all the wisdom and knowledge of the lands as they flow and speak of things living and now.
Common human decency, yes?
Spot on analysis, from a local news guy/comedian, regarding the loss by Ohio Issue 1. If passed it would have required a 60% super majority to pass a citizen sponsored constitutional amendment. It lost about 57% no and 43% yes. One person one vote!

It occurs to me that as we live our lives, the time in the moment passes at a stately pace. However, when we replay our life in our minds, it flies by. I wish I had gained wisdom younger, so I would have savored each now lost moment. I would be the great boulder in the middle of the swift stream, standing still within the swift current of time.
@DoomsdaysCW sort of like applying pressure to a wound. Remove the pressure and you increase the bleeding.
@europlus will do!
