I sat there drinking the latte and chowing down on the bran muffin. I looked at my watch and saw that it was 10:05, so hurried up and made it over there & got my ink and then some paper, and then walked home.

I plan to write more things in this blog then the mundane. Life is complex and I'm a complex person. I'm a thinker, a meditator and a contimplator. But I will let things flow in a natural way. I'm not going to force write. When I write it will be from the heart. It will be something I really have to say. One of these days I will erupt and I'll puke it, spew it, and cough it up some way or another. I've always been interested in writing. I think I wrote my first poem when I was around 9 years old. I have always been interested in the English language. and I think English was one of my favorite subjects in school, although I may not have gotten good grades in it some years. I always got something out of the class. Words have always been interesting to me.

I was thinking about this lately. Van Gogh wandered around Holland and France painting and expressing himself in art. But back in the 1800's he had to buy all the equipment; the brushes, paint, canvas etc just to express what he saw. Today we have cameras and computers. As we wander around in our lives we can instantly snap a picture of something that interests us, and almost instantly put it up for the world to see, like on a blog. I can't imagine what it will be like a hundred years from now. I think it's amazing how things have advanced just since the time I was born. A little over a hundred years ago people were using horses to get around in carriages and buggys etc: Believe it or not a large percentage of the world is still using animals as their main way of transportation. The United States is the most advanced country in this world at this present time. I think it will always be that way. This country is not perfect in any way shape or form. There are many things that are wrong in this country. I believe we are on the threshold of being tested as a nation like we have never been tested before. We've got all these immigrant pouring into this country illegally. We've got radical Islamic nations wanting to destroy our country. These are interesting times and I'm glad I'm alive to witness it. I have so much to say, but I can only let it out little by little. This is all for now. Until next time....chow
