Soul searching and health challenges

In case anyone hasn't noticed, I have a bit more time on my hands lately. I'm burning up vacation time dealing with a serious medical condition that doesn't seem to be getting any better. I refuse to believe that it's chronic. I'm just waiting for and juggling the specialist's specialist to figure out proper treatment. 

Not to go TMI but I just wanted to pause and talk about soul searching as we reflect upon the solemnities of eternity. I love looking at the night sky in rural areas away from the city lights. It's breathtaking but it's also humbling. It's hard not to feel insignificant when you gaze at the universe's vast expanse. 

Worlds without number. Kind of makes ya feel like a grain of sand on an ocean beach. Yet there's always a yearning for something higher. As soon as this health challenge hit we've been experiencing a prolonged New York Minute of nonstop crazy news. They say anything can happen in a New York minute. Back in the /80's that was sure true. 

We'd be multitasking numerous violent situations all around us all at once. Likewise this current prolonged New York minute of crazy news has been a constant bombardment of insanity. Thus my post referring to this as the Alice in Wonderland era.  

Locally we have the Bill Majcher case where the intelligence community has bent over backwards to set up, defame and destroy a true patriot. Just like Cameron Ortis. 

There's been more unclassified documents connecting the CIA to drug trafficking. Once again we see, no lie can live forever. You can fool some of the people some of the time but you can't fool all of the people all of the time. Iran contra never stopped.

The Iran war, the Lebanon invasion, the defiant atrocities and the defiant deceptions. Charlie Kirk was not shot with a 30-06. Kash Patel is a complete clown. So is Donald Trump 2.0.

Neo Cons are not conservatives. You can't unite the right because some on the far right aren't worth saving. Conservatives can't unite with the far right without abandoning their core principles. You're better off uniting with people on the left who aren't so extreme. Recently I had a very interesting religious conversation with a Muslim. 

I'll make a separate post about it but it helped me clearly define what I personally do and don't believe. We all need a mission statement. Stephen Covey once said "A personal mission statement becomes the DNA for every other decision we make."

For me, my Finian's Inferno website brought together some of my heartfelt concerns about the suffering I've seen in my travels. Although I get just as frustrated with trolls and what Martin Luther King referred to as the children of darkness, I do care about my community, my country and the planet. 

I mentioned that old domain tribunal decision I had going against Telus. That was separate from the giant censorship court case I had with them in San Francisco. I do see it as water under the bridge. We all make choices and we all live with the choices we've made. I have no regrets with regards to those choices. Just like the fight I had with Canada Post. 

"In this great future you can't forget you past so dry your tears I say. No woman, no cry. Everything's gonna be all right."
