HONORING PUERTO RICO

PERSONAL PHOTOGRAPH MADE WITH ‘LIVE COLLAGE’

“That looks like a Puerto Rican statue of liberty on steroids.”

(a friend told me)

Some of you may know, others not.

I am a fan of tattoos, having a few of them myself.

I’m also Puerto Rican, born and raised, living in the mainland.

Since September 20, 2017, when Hurricane María battered and almost flattened my country, my personal feelings have come to the surface.

My heart and soul ache for Puerto Rico.

It’s been a week today since I visited my tattoo artist for add ons, updates, coloring and completion.

Colors, shading, The ‘cemí’, the hibiscus flowers, the ‘Taíno coquí’ and the ‘Taíno sun‘ were completed.

The process is almost totally done.

Only minor details for the last sitting.

My tattoo artist, Barefoot Stacy, is amazing!

Here it is!

This is a proud Boricua woman, holding her head up high, ready to hold her stand and give the good fight.

This happens in Puerto Rico every minute of every day.

The fortitude of the Puerto Rican woman has been tested during the trying times since Hurricane María battered the Island on September 20, 2018, a bit beyond six months ago today.

I wanted to share another ‘almost complete’ result with you today.

More will follow as it’s totally done.

Visit HAWAI’I …. “🇺🇸 Honest Government Advertisement … This is for Real 🇺🇸 …. “!

AMERICA’S LEAST KNOWN MILITARY OCCUPATION

I’ve been re-discovering the history of my country, Puerto Rico. As I’m going through that process, I’ve thought about other countries which could have experienced similar events as a result of the endless desire of the United States to be a global empire.

My gut was correct!

One of the countries whose history I want to review and research is Hawaii. I found this interesting video that explains concisely some of the information that I’ve been searching for.

Always remember, there’s truth in yest!

I worked on the Puerto Rico video; here’s the Hawaii one mentioned by the creators.

My heart bleeds for these countries!

~Visit Hawai’i – Honest Government Ad~

Aloha!

I had the magical opportunity to visit Hawai’i at the start of the month and talk with local and native Hawaiians.

They all said the biggest problem they face is the fact that so few people are aware of the history of ongoing US military occupation.

So on my return to Australia, I decided to make a video about it.

AMERICA’S FAVORITE TERRITORY

… OR RATHER COLONY!

This is my country, as many of you well know.

This is the place where I was born and raised.

It’s no secret that Puerto Rico has been going through quite the rough patch since the American invasion in 1898.

However, fast-forward to the present and catch a glimpse of the Island’s current reality.

Always remember, there’s truth in yest!

I will soon be working on the Hawaii video which the creators mentioned in their article.

My heart bleeds for my country!

~Hola amigos, here is our latest Honest Government Ad~

After the Visit Hawai’ i video, SO many Boricuas asked us to make one about the current situation in Puerto Rico; I’ve never received so many requests for a video – so we just had to do it!

I was fortunate to be able to chat and consult with a dozen of them over the past month, men and women of various ages … and whilst they had different views on statehood vs independence, they all agreed on one thing:

that Puerto Rico is a US colony.

That’s why I decided to focus on this (rather than weigh in on the subject of political status, which is for Boricuas to decide).

I hope you enjoy it.

I spent way too long creating this image for the Visit Puerto Rico/Honest Government Advert I’m currently making.

May as well make a post out of it.

Sidenote: Learning about Puerto Rico’s situation has been farking infuriating

Happy 420 …. “Celebrate Sky High …. Weed Day …. all together now …. “!!

Posted on April 20, 2017 by Dr. Rex

~~April 20, 2017~~

WEED DAY

The term ‘420’ began its sub-rosa linguistic career in 1971 as a bit of slang casually used by a group of high school kids (known as “Waldos”) at San Rafael High School in California.

The term ‘420’ (always pronounced “four-twenty,” never “four hundred and twenty”) came to be an accepted part of the argot within that group of about a dozen pot smokers, beginning as a reminder of the time they planned to meet to light up, 4:20 p.m.

Flags Up, everyone

YOU CAN FIND IT ANYWHERE

Displaying the ‘Mono-Estrellada‘, red, white and blue amidst a field of sunflowers.

Two of my favorites:

my country’s flag and these awesome flowers.

Because Puerto Ricans are everywhere!

Puerto Rico’s flag is alive within the minds, hearts and souls or every Puerto Rican.

You can bet on that!

THE VOICES IN MY HEAD

The voices
The voices in my head
Try to change me
Some tears were shed
But they were too blind to see

What I was doing
I was plotting
Of ways for them to stop
My head was ready to pop

We ALL are ONE!!

I'm originally from Puerto Rico. I was born in Santurce and raised in Rio Piedras. I currently live in Florida - since 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 28yrs. 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. 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!!!
