WHY I BLOG … SPREADING KNOWLEDGE

I haven’t done this for a while.

I would like to re-introduce myself to anyone out there who stops by and takes a look at what I post, be it a reblog or a regular post.

This statement can be found in the side bar of the original

It Is What It Is

home page.

“Dr. Rex”

I’m originally from Puerto Rico.

I was born in Santurce and raised in Rio Piedras.

I currently live in Florida.

I moved from the Island in 1999.

I have a doctorate degree in Medicine; completed in 1976. My Internal Medicine specialty was completed in 1979. Worked for Puerto Rico’s health system until 1985.

At this time, I’m happily retired after working for the federal government for almost 28 years.

I also worked for the government of Puerto Rico from 1979 through 1985 …. for a total of almost 40 years as a physician.

I want to offer any knowledge that I have to anyone “out there” who is interested.

My views are liberal in almost every sense.

My knowledge is “eclectic” – a bit of everything.

Music and reading are my passion.

Blogging has also become a very interesting endeavor. Metaphysical topics attract me.

I’m interested in news – reporting human issues like injustice, discrimination and abuse – the “wrongly” affected.

I want to be a voice for the voiceless.

 My intention is to bring this knowledge to an understandable level and to help anyone in need.

I’m open to questions and will answer them to the best of my ability.

Currently working on an enterprise whose main mission will be to bring peoples of all walks of life together.

To be one …. since we ALL are ONE!!

The future looks bright and promising!!!

Writing Process Blog Tour …. On the “road” again!!


~~June 30, 2014~~ 

Thank you very much for inviting me to this great blog tour Patty!

The questions are:

What are you currently working on? 

Unlike some of my fellow bloggers who are published authors, I select the topics that I post about in a very informal way. I look at the news, remember special holidays, keep track of celebrities – death anniversaries, birthdays – celebrate important days in history, review topics related to animals, music – remembering old hits and posting about new artists and their new songs, consider causes like autism, Earth day, Oceans Day. The environment is a very important subject for me as well as medical issues: medical conditions and adverse effects to the human body due to GMOs, ChemTrails, etc.

Spiritual topics attract me. I try to post inspirational and motivational posts to uplift the human spirit.

From my blog’s “ABOUT”:

“My views are liberal in almost every sense. My knowledge is “eclectic” – a bit of everything. Music and reading are my passion. Blogging has also become a very interesting endeavor.

I also write from personal experience. I write about my family and my friends’ families. I have written about two good friends who have lost dear ones. People’s stories inspire me. The important topics for them inspire me also. 

An idea may come to me through a conversation.

How does your work differ from others of its genre?

This is a bit difficult to answer because I don’t consider I have a “genre”. I think that what I do in the blogosphere is unique only in the aspect that it’s written by one individual. There are so many excellent bloggers out there. I see their work everyday. All of them are unique.

I have learned many things from those I follow and read. The topics are as varied as there are bloggers. The same goes for the style and looks of each blog.

Maybe I can say that my work differs from others because of the passion I put into it. However, I feel the passion that other bloggers/writers have.

Why do you write what you do?

I retired from a full time job after almost 40 years working as a physician. During those many years, I educated patients about their conditions and how to manage them. I supervised interns and residents, worked with nurses, offered informal lectures …. always with the intent to “educate”.

My intention has always been to share what I know and what I learn about. I post to educate in any way possible. My desire is to bring this knowledge to an understandable level and to help anyone in need.

I write about vacation time, fun time and serious time.

Power of Words

How does your writing process work?

I think that my writing process is very disorganized. LOL … many times I sit in front of the computer wondering what to write about. The google doodles inspire me. Sometimes, postings on Facebook direct me to a topic. New videos on YouTube also lead me down the path to a post. I like to post about the movies that I see and include the “trailer” to motivate the reader.

Bloggers who I read and follow are an inspiration. 

Like I’ve said … a bit of everything. Nothing is planned.

~~On The Road Again~~

~Willie Nelson~

~Published on Dec 5, 2012~

“Goin’ places that I’ve never been.
Seein’ things that I may never see again

And I can’t wait to get on the road again.
On the road again –
Like a band of gypsies we go down the highway
We’re the best of friends.
Insisting that the world keep turning our way”

“Community Heart Award” …. for bloggers who care!!


ComHeart

~~June 30, 2014~~ 

Kev at http://kevs-domain.net/ created a brand new award:

The Community Heart Award!

community is a social unit of any size that shares common values. Although embodied or face-to-face communities are usually small, larger or more extended communities such as a national community, international community and virtual community are also studied.

In human communities, intentbeliefresourcespreferencesneedsrisks, and a number of other conditions may be present and common, affecting the identity of the participants and their degree of cohesiveness.

Since the advent of the Internet, the concept of community has less geographical limitation, as people can now gather virtually in an online community and share common interests regardless of physical location. Prior to the internet, virtual communities (like social or academic organizations) were far more limited by the constraints of available communication and transportation technologies.

One broad definition which incorporates all the different forms of community is

a group or network of persons who are connected (objectively) to each other by relatively durable social relations that extend beyond immediate genealogical ties, and who mutually define that relationship (subjectively) as important to their social identity and social practice.

… has been nominated for this incredibly awesome and meaningful award by:

Just Patty from http://petitemagique.wordpress.com

The heart symbol or “heart shape” (♥) is an ideograph used to express the idea of the “heart” in its metaphorical or symbolic sense as the center of emotion, including affection and love, especially (but not exclusively) romantic love.

This award has an important meaning to us at “It Is What It Is“. It embodies the soul of our mission and purpose. There’s a definite sense of community and a complete commitment to caring.

~~MISSION~

“I want to offer any knowledge that I have to anyone “out there” who is interested. My views are liberal in almost every sense. My knowledge is “eclectic” – a bit of everything. Music and reading are my passion. Blogging has also become a very interesting endeavor. Metaphysical topics attract me.

My intention is to bring this knowledge to an understandable level and to help anyone in need.”

As noted above, the internet has broken barriers and has made our huge world so much smaller and accessible.

We connect and we make long lasting bonds even though we are physically far apart. 

ThankY
