My Annual Thanksgiving Prayer

At the Blink of an eye, 
Life moves Us from 
Bliss to Sorrow,
Give to Borrow.

Ever-changing,
Delivering us To another Place, 
Another Destination,
From another Space.

Requiring Us
To Reflect;
To Sense what we Haven’t before;
To Absorb what Is around us.

Now, We
See Through Things, 
Around Things,
Inside Things.

Discovering
Our Real Worth,
What we’re made Of,
And What we’ve Become.

All the Pieces are Here, 
Our Family’s Fabric 
Sewn tightly Together, 
Sinewy and Strong.

New and old blended together.
Year in year out, life gets better.

Author Joe Koenig  "Getting the Truth"

Words Matter

Good pronoun analysis greatly assists you in understanding the true message. Pronouns are "you, me, your, I, it," etc. The articles "a," "an," and "the," are pronoun-like and are also extremely important when they take the place of a pronoun. Take the sentence, "I went shopping with my wife," vs. "I went shopping with the wife." Words illuminate hidden agendas and positions.   #Wordsmatter.

Here is a recent article showing those principles. (If I find something similar on the other candidate I'll post that as well).   See Othering

CPA's Like "Getting the Truth"

We the People

Progressive, Conservative,

Republican, Democrat,

Donkey, Elephant,

Idealist, realist?

Violent, acerbic,

Vitriolic, spiteful,

Nasty, mean,

And cruel tones pervade.

Truthful? Factual?

Propaganda?

Our bias and prejudice

Restrict us – blind us?

Do I give or receive?

Enlighten or deceive?

Believe him, or her?

For whom shall I vote?

Am I left or right?

Open or close-minded?

Willing or unable?

Will I vote after all?

Despite all its ugliness,

Pretense, and nonsense

This is our process,

Our genesis.

Our relief, the final curtain

Falls in November.

Bringing disruption and chaos

To a new beginning.

Inevitably, we achieve

Stability thru division,

Strength thru derision.

Finally, in the end,

This is what we sow.

This is what we know.

Bending, blending, coalescing,

We are the USA! USA!! USA!!!
