This Afternoon
One of the blogs I found recently is titled "Peace And Love". Upon reading it I had cause to stop and think. Thoughts of war generally flit through my mind. I don't stop and think about it. It's hard to believe in this day and age there are wars going on. How barbaric. The States, claiming to be a civilized society, involved in war? What is civilized about war? Hell, even Canada is in it. Why are governments not able to sit down and come to agreement? I mean it's just crazy, when you think about it.
Then it occurred to me, it's like extreme bullying. The government sponsors all sorts of anti-bullying sessions and literature in our schools, and yet engages in war? Slightly hypocritical, don't you think?
Simplistic thinking, I know, but that's the kind of gal I am, simple.
So I just try to not think about it, otherwise, it may drive me crazy. I don't like the way the world is going. It does bother me, so, I just try not to think about it.
Unless an odd headline jumps out at me, I don't read much news. I don't want to know. I'm such a fence-sitter. I used to become outraged. I used to be opinionated. It never got me anywhere, but, upset. So, now, I just don't think about it. There's nothing I can do about it, no way I can stop it. I've become apathetic.
There are many political blogs out there. I find them to be most boring. I'd much rather read about someone's gardens and pets. The daily lives of other people, fascinating. Personal journal type blogs are my favourite kind.
As I sit here grudgingly anticipating the coming snow, I thought a cozy fire was in order. It is just what I needed. All my boys are napping nearby, allowing me to browse blogs at my leisure and in peace.
Who needs unwelcome thoughts of war and barbarity?
I bought some new bulbs the other day. Asian Lilies and Tigridia. I've never heard of Tigridia before, but the picture on the box looks interesting, very colourful. The lilies are a bright red colour. They were a good price, though I don't remember which store I got them at. I can't wait to plant them. Even more so I can't wait to see them bloom.
Peace.
