HARROWING TIMES
~IN SO MANY WAYS~
The norms, the standards, the beliefs, the expectations, the behavior, the basic goodness I grew up with; the values instilled in me by my parents, my teachers, my role models, my guides are being shaken to the core.
I feel the ground shaking under my feet. I’m losing my moorings. I’m questioning what is happening around me.
Evil things are happening and there’s no check on them.
Seems evil is winning a ferocious battle and I was taught that good would always prevail.
Will it?
When I have no words, tears come to my eyes and express that pain.

Shooting Survivors Write and Perform Song
Survivors of the Stoneman Douglas High school shooting perform “Shine,” a song the school’s drama club wrote in the wake of the shooting.
The more I find out about these kids, the more impressed I am.
Multiply that by such a number and imagine how many amazing kids are out there in harm’s way.
Never thought of it this way.
The adults have dropped the ball.
It will be up to their generation to get this done correctly.
My support is with them all the way!

Stoneman Douglas Drama Club performs “Shine” – a song they wrote this week
Tonight’s town hall closed with a moving performance by Stoneman Douglas High School’s Drama Club.
During the performance, the students urged the crowd to reach out to Congress. “Be the voice for those who don’t have one,” a student performer said.
They performed “Shine,” a song they wrote this week to honor their friends following the shooting.

EMMA GONZALEZ
THE VOICES OF THE YOUNG
In the midst of a terrible mass shooting in Parkland, Florida, young voices are loudly raising to decry the lack of action from GOP politicians, including the ‘so-called president’, who are beholden to the NRA in view of the political campaign donations.
They have been bought and paid by the NRA.
This has to change.
It seems the generation coming up will not accept this!

Florida school shooting survivor SLAMS Drumpf and Republicans for doing NOTHING to stop mass shootings
🔥 🔥 🔥 EVERY WORD of this is FIRE 🔥 🔥 🔥
“They say that tougher gun laws do not decrease gun violence. We call BS!
They say a good guy with a gun stops a bad guy with a gun. We call BS!
They say guns are just tools like knives and are as dangerous as cars. We call BS!”
Thanks to Emma González for giving this AMAZING speech.
By MATTHEW DESSEM
February 17, 2018
Emma González, a senior at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School who survived Wednesday’s mass shooting, gave a blistering speech at an anti-gun rally on Saturday about the politicians complicit in the murder of her classmates. It was yet another reminder that the teenagers and children who grew up in the shadow of school shootings (and the 150,000 who survived one) are more practical – and less tolerant of empty rhetoric – than the adults who are supposed to protect them.
González had no use for crocodile tears from Drumpf, who was in Florida on Friday, February 16, to offer his condolences (and, reportedly, to drop by a Studio 54 theme party at Mar-a-Lago):
If the president wants to come up to me and tell me to my face that it was a terrible tragedy, and how it should never have happened, and maintain telling us how nothing is going to be done about it, I’m going to happily ask him how much money
he received from the National Rifle Association.
But hey, you want to know something?
It doesn’t matter, because I already know: $30 million.
To every politician who is taking donations from the NRA, shame on you!
In February of 2017, one year ago, Drumpf repealed an Obama-era regulation that would have made it easier to block the sale of firearms to people with certain mental illnesses.
I don’t need to be a psychologist to know that repealing that regulation was a really dumb idea. Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa was the sole sponsor of this bill to stop the FBI from performing background checks on people adjudicated to be mentally ill, and now he’s stating for the record, “Well, it’s a shame that the FBI isn’t doing background checks on these mentally ill people.” Well, duh: You took that opportunity away last year! The people in government who we voted into power are lying to us. And us kids seem to be the only ones who notice and are prepared to call BS.

“PUDDLES PITY PARTY”
AMERICA’S GOT TALENT
I’ve started watching ‘America’s Got Talent‘.
This is my second season. It’s a refreshing surprise to watch his man, a sad clown with a golden voice perform.
It made my life better then.
I’m looking forward for more performances from him.

PUDDLES PITY PARTY’S GOLDEN VOICE IMPRESSED AMERICA’S GOT TALENT JUDGES
Much to the bemusement of the judges and everybody in the audience, Puddles stepped in front of the mic as he usually does, with his giant suitcase and lantern. When pressed for some background info from the judges, he maintained the silent character he always has, only making a sound when he began his performance of Sia’s “Chandelier”.
Of course, he nailed the performance as he always does, but this TV appearance gave us something we’ve never really seen from Puddles before: genuine emotion. His singing is always poignant, but his character is just that: a character.
He’s a sad clown, but when he heard the enthusiastic applause following his big break, he got actually emotional in a real human way, tears running down his face and everything.

ONE YOUNG WOMAN
I came across the video included below yesterday.
Tears flowed on their own.
In my personal case, I wasn’t really aware about details related to the political status of North Korea. I knew only a bit.
In light of the prominence given to this country by the actions of the ‘so-called president’ as they relate to North Korea, I am paying more attention.
This is a ‘must watch’ video.
Even though the video was posted in 2014, most likely it still applies today.
Yeonmi Park has grown up to be a beautiful, free young woman!
HortyRex©
North Korean woman, Yeonmi Park had a packed audience in tears as she relayed an account of her escape from ‘the darkest place in the world’ at the peace and conflict plenary session. The 21 year old said she was brainwashed by the propaganda of Kim Jong Il and three generations of imprisonment or execution was imposed on anyone that expressed doubt about the regime.
“North Korea is the only country in the world that executes people for making unauthorized international phone calls. North Koreans are being terrorized today,” said Park.
“When I was 9 years old, I saw my friend’s mother publicly executed. Her crime? Watching a Hollywood movie.There’s only one channel on TV. There’s no Internet. We aren’t free to move, sing, read, wear or think what we want,” Park continued. The repressive dictatorship led Park’s older sister to escape and gave Park and her mother no option but to escape themselves in order to find her sister. However as they escaped across the border, Yeonmi, at 13 years old witnessed her mother’s rape.
“I saw my mother raped. The rapist was a Chinese broker. I will never forget his face. The rapist had targeted me. I was only 13 years old,” said an emotional Park.
Park called on chinese One Young World delegates to speak out and petition china to stop repatriation, and called on everyone in attendance to support North Korean refugees that flee the country.
What followed was a standing ovation lasting over three minutes and many delegates leaving the auditorium red-eyed with tears, taking a moment to reflect on the atrocities of North Korea.

What is One Young World?
One Young World was founded in 2009 by David Jones and Kate Robertson. We are a UK-based charity that gathers together the brightest young leaders from around the world, empowering them to make lasting connections to create positive change.
We stage an annual Summit where the most valuable young talent from global and national companies, NGOs, universities and other forward-thinking organisations are joined by world leaders, acting as the One Young World Counselors.
At the Summit, delegates debate, formulate and share innovative solutions for the pressing issues the world faces.
At past Summits delegates were joined by a line-up of Counsellors that included Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu, Sir Bob Geldof, Kofi Annan, Sir Richard Branson, Professor Muhammad Yunus, Jamie Oliver, Jack Dorsey and Arianna Huffington.
After each Summit, the delegates, who are then known as One Young World Ambassadors, work on their own initiatives or lend the power of the One Young World network to those initiatives already in existence. Of those in employment, many return to their companies and set about creating change from within, energizing their corporate environment.

THE ONLY WAY IS FORWARD
Too much work, effort, blood sweat and tears have been invested in LGBTQ equality.
There’s no going back.
This isn’t the time to rest.
The new Republican Administration, lead by Drumpf, is launching an overt attack on the LGBTQ community.
It’s coming!
We won’t go back in the closet!
We are here to stay!

By all measures, 2015 will be remembered as a banner year for LGBT rights in the United States
The Supreme Court gave gays and lesbians the right to wed.
Popular culture and public opinion continued to increasingly accept transgender identities and same-sex relationships. Corporate advocacy beat back state religious-freedom laws that would have provided a defense for discrimination. And there are more than 450 openly gay elected officials currently serving across the country.
But backers don’t expect the good news to continue, at least in the short term.

“I guess it’s going to have to hurt, I guess I’m going to have to cry, and let go of some things I’ve loved to get to the other side
I guess it’s going to break me down, like falling when you try to fly,
Sad but sometimes moving on with the rest of your life starts with goodbye.”~Carrie Underwood~

THE YEAR 2016
During the early months of 2016, the world was shinning.
The promise of progress and positive change was in the air.
I married the love of my life in early January.
There is no doubt in my mind that 2016 has been a difficult year, full of change, challenges, losses, promises, conflicts and uncertainty.
Many loved ones have been lost that we are aware of and plenty must have been lost that we do not know about.
Personally, it’s been difficult for me because I have seen the ‘melting away‘ of institutions that have been very sacred to me.
I do not have today the hope, the joy and the looking forward to the next year (2017) that frequently accompanies this festivity.
I’m very concerned about 2017.
It’s lost the shine and luster that usually comes with new beginnings.
I haven’t been able to shake off a feeling of dread since November 8.
Call me a ‘snowflake‘, call me a ‘sore loser‘, call me a ‘pessimist‘.
Call me all you want; I can take it.
‘Stick and stones may brake my bones but words will never hurt me.”
I know how I feel and I know why.
I’m carefully observant and vigilant now.
I so hope to be proven wrong!
