I DON'T know
By Mona Lease

Hi, all!! I went to a funeral in November...another one in December. And yesterday - as I pen this - I attended a Memorial Service for a really good friend of mine ..of some 23 years.

I left the service and went to Goodwill in Greenville. I listened as a woman told the lady running the cash register how hard it had been on her when she buried her young son...who had lost his battle with cancer...same as my girlfriend did.

It is plastered all over the Media, Facebook, etc  about President Trump, the "Russia Investigation" regarding Russia's meddling in the US Presidential Election that gave us President Trump.

I thought maybe my mind had taken a wrong turn with all of this...that maybe answers could or would be the same for all of this. Why? and How?...are the questions surrounding the deaths of which I just wrote. And these are the same questions surrounding the Presidential Election's results.

How can this happen in our lifetime of such headline-making strides for health...voting...security, etc??? And...I don't know how or why.

I don't have the heart or energy to try to figure this out right now. Consider the following. We'll start anew next week.

The reason life works at all is because not everyone in your tribe is nuts on the same day. - Anne Lamott -

Everyone comes into your life for a reason, some for good or bad. They may break us, shape us. But in the end, they make us who we are. - Psychotic's Post -

Sometimes we are just the collateral damage in someone else's war against themselves. - Lauren Eden -

In your lifetime, you will find and meet one person who will love you more than anybody you have ever known and will know. They love you with every bit of energy and soul. They will sacrifice, surrender, and give so much that it scares you. Someday you'll know who that is. Sometimes people realize who it was. - Halos and Horns Fun Page -

It's not necessary to react to everything you notice. - Peace, Love, and Everything Else -

Sometimes the worst place you can be is in your own mind. - Psychotic's Post -

Life tip: When nothing goes right...go to sleep. - Untraveled Journey -

Sometimes in life you just need a hug. No words, no advice, just a hug to make you feel better. - Peace, Love, and Everything Else -

Don't wait until it's too late to tell someone how much you love them, how much you care. Because when they're gone, no matter how loud you shout and cry, they won't hear you anymore. - Jacque Nixon Fetters -

If you don't like me, someone else will. If you're not missing me, someone else is. If you don't love me, someone else does. - Keep The Plug In the Jug -

If she only wants you, don't worry about who wants her. - Untraveled Journey -

Money is numbers and numbers never end. If it takes money to be happy, your search for happiness will never end. - Untraveled Journey -

Learn to wait. There's a time for everything. - Untraveled Journey -

I'm not impressed by your looks, money, social status, or job title. I'm impressed by the way you treat other human beings. - Keep The Plug In The Jug -

Sometimes you fall before you fly. In my case, I had to stumble through the darkness, fall on my face and get up again....only to walk into the wall. - Put The Dope Down -

I got family that treat me like an enemy...friends that treat me like family. And enemies that act like friends. - Psychotic's Post -

To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist...that is all. - Oscar Wilde -

There comes a time when you have to stop crossing oceans for people who wouldn't jump a puddle for you. - Just For Jokes -

Note to self: Stop trying so hard for people who don't care. - Untraveled Journey -

Remember the kiddies and our service people. Take good care of the furry and feathered ones out there. Be safe and healthy. See ya next time. Ever Toodles!! MONA
