Spot on



So?



Did you get the reaction you were looking for the other day?
I know, a lil over the top but give a fella a break would ya?
Been going on a while now you know?

Any doubts about how much I want you?
Any?
At all?

I'm tired Lucy.
I just want my wife sweetheart.
Tired of waiting.

Rumi



I want that Love that moved the mountains
I want that Love that split the oceans
I want that Love that made the winds tremble
I want that Love that roared like thunder
I want that Love that will raise the dead
I want that Love that lifts us to ecstasy
I want that Love that is the silence
of Eternity.

"You



can't control what people do to you but you can control how you react."

I disagree lol.
Go figure right?

You can control who you choose to be around.
That controls what people are able to do to you.

The beauty you see in me is a reflection of you.

Romans 8:28

I



still give thanks for:

"The roof over my head, the food in my belly, and the clothes on my back, every day, multiple times a day."

Even on my worst of days.
Promise.

Maya Angelou



"I can be changed by what happens to me. 
But I refuse to be reduced by it."

Exactly

She



looks so familiar.
Just can't quite put my finger on it.
Seems like I saw here around lil while a go.
Yeah, pretty sure I did.
Who ever could she be?
I just can't for the life of me figure it out.

Woman?

Please...

Zen master



says to student, "If you move, I'll hit you with a stick."
Zen master also says to student, "If you don't move, I'll hit you with a stick."
Student says, "I see, I must take away the stick."

I'm taking away the stick.
Because it's within my ability to do so.
No more being subjected to this shit.

Promise.

Watch.

"He



who angers you conquers you."

Well you know what?
I'll take a life lived full of passion and intensity about what I hold dear to my heart over some boring ass middle of the road doing what everybody else is doing existence every time.

Every time.
Without a doubt.

If I came back to this world tomorrow and had to start all over?
I'd live with as much passion and intensity as I could.
If I came back a thousand times?
I'd do it all the same way again.

Not everybody wants to be like everybody else.
It's just not in them.

Never has been.
Never will be.

 Best to just accept them as they are instead of trying to pigeonhole them into something you want them to be for your own needs and concerns.

It just doesn't work.
I'm gonna tell ya, it just flat out will not work.

So why even bother to try?

Love you Lucy.
Obviously lol.

You can't stop this now.
To much money to be made, jobs to be created and tax revenue to be had.
I know it's Canada.
But look at the size of the crowd.

Happy Birthday





Always wanted the shirt :-).
But then where are you gonna wear it?
Festivals.
Thats about it.
Not WC Handy in Henderson.
They would kick you out.

Completely Badass



Cincy




Just sayin :-).

Well?



Wisdom

Your answers reveal that wisdom is your most dominant personality trait. You approach situations and challenges with a level head and use logic when making decisions. Your many experiences in life have made you an intelligent and practical individual.

That's twice now.
Stupid FB quizzes.

No.
I can't sleep lol.

John Wesley



“Unless God has raised you up for this very thing, you will be worn out by the opposition of men and devils. 
But if God be for you, who can be against you? 
Are all of them together stronger than God? 
O be not weary of well doing!”

Much like "Born in the USA".
It was, above all else, a protest song.
And he was considered radical.



"In the shadow of the steeple I saw my people, 
By the relief office I seen my people; 
As they stood there hungry, I stood there asking 
Is this land made for you and me?

Nobody living can ever stop me, 
As I go walking that freedom highway; 
Nobody living can ever make me turn back 
This land was made for you and me."


Isaiah 26:3



Isaiah 26:3

"Come on

 

baby, take a seat on my fender 
It's a long night, and tell me, what else were you gonna do?

"Cannabinoids have been found to have antioxidant properties...this new found property makes cannabinoids useful in the treatment of...inflammatory and autoimmune diseases."

"Nonpsychoactive cannabinoids, such as cannabidoil, are particularly advantageous..."

Notice it doesn't say the psychoactive ones don't work.
Just that the nonpsychoactive ones work better.
Have fun and take medicine at the same time?

And



yes, I usually take notes on sermons.
Cause I want to come home and read more.
Especially verses I hadn't heard before or interpretations I wasn't or haven't been familiar with.
It helps keep you going through the week.
At least it does me anyway.

Romans 1:16

Ephesians 4:26

James 1 19:20.

Mark 11 24:25

Matthew 6 14:15

Coming after Saturday?
Some of those about anger really hit me in the gut.
Like I've always said, I knew I was supposed to go to this church.

I can't remember if I shared these or not.
Pretty sure these are from the Sunday before last.

1 Corinthians 13 4:7

Proverbs 16:18
(Sounds familiar for some reason lol)

Exodus 34:29

James 4:6

Deuteronomy 8 17:18

Psalm 147:6

Proverbs 15;33

Love you.

1 Corinthians 13 4-7



1 Corinthians 13 4-7

Brother Joe had a great story Sunday.
It was about his family and his children and how they read the bible every night.
A chapter a day at the end of the night I think he said.
He said all his kids, every last one of them, even the youngest, knew these verses by heart.
It's the last thing they read at night.
On the front of their bibles.

Know what happens in the mornings?
Sure you do lol.
They fight like brothers and sisters.
He said he was like, "But hey you just read this last night, you know the meaning, why are you behaving like this?"
Congregation got a good laugh.
Because were human.
That's why.

His point was (and I think it's a good one), it's one thing to read and to know, it's a completely different matter when it comes to acting on what we know.
I thought it was a great story.

1 Corinthians 13:5



1 Corinthians 13:5

Easily would be the key word lol.

It doesn't say it doesn't get mad.
It says, "it is not easily..."

Now what constitutes "easily" may be open to interpretation I suppose.

And



Matthew 6:16-21

Some



of my favorites.

Matthew 6:1-6

Ephesians 6:10-18

Rumi's



answer to questions asked by a disciple -

What is Poison?
He replied with a beautiful answer - 
Anything which is more than our necessity is Poison. It may be Power, Wealth, Hunger, Ego, Greed, Laziness, Love, Ambition, Hate or anything

What is fear.....?
Non acceptance of uncertainty.
If we accept that uncertainty, it becomes adventure...!

What is envy ?
Non acceptance of good in others
If we accept that good, it becomes inspiration...!

What is Anger?
Non acceptance of things which are beyond our control.
If we accept, it becomes tolerance...!

What is hatred?
Non acceptance of person as he is. 
If we accept person unconditionally, it becomes love...!

Not



giving credence to haters lol.
Get it?
Credence?

Just always loved this version of this song.


Plan



on it.
Just in case people haven't noticed lol.

Got



away from this for a while lil bit ago.

Don't do nothing but drag you down.
Glad to get back to it.
Just don't ever respond.
Let the haters hate.
It's what they do.
Not us.


You



know, one of the things that really gets to me is, you can just tell people think, 
"Well that's just so easy for him."
No.
No it's not.
Not in the least.
In fact it's the opposite.
More than likely the hardest thing I've ever done.
Mostly because of the duration.
No need to expound on that lol.
But you know how what you're doing is the right thing?
Because it will be the hardest thing you've ever done.
Way it works seems like to me.

Love you Virgie.

Rumi



With love you don’t bargain. 
There, the choice is not yours. 
Love is a mirror, it reflects only your essence, if you have the courage to look in its face.

Another line from Bro Joe this AM.

I



told you a long time ago.
I know how you practical joker types are.
Everything's all fun and games as long as the jokes on somebody else.
Soon as someone tells you to stop or they don't appreciate it or they play a joke on you?
Well then everything just gets all sorts of out of wack.
If your gonna give it?
Then you need to be able to take it.
Or at least deal with the ramifications.
When somebody says thats enough, after having put up with things for longer than they wished they had?
Well then thats enough.
It's not their fault for blowing their cool.
Not when they told the other party numerous times to stop.
Don't poke the bear.
And whatever you do?
Don't poke the bear and then get mad at him when he finally comes after you.
Thats a fools folly.

All that being said?



Love you Lucy.

"You



have to pass through the gates of forgiveness first to get to the kingdom of heaven."

Bro Joe stated who said it but I didn't catch it.

Seems like truth to me.
Love you.

Standing up



to you and not being afraid to make you mad is why you love me so much knucklehead.



Duh.

Love you.

You



have to understand.
This was when just covering Hendrix was thought to be Blasphemous.
He was like, "Fuck you, I'll see your Hendrix and raise you a thousand.".

To be honest?
It was better.
People didn't know what to think.

I think it's time for bed lol.
Love you.

Love the belt btw.


Great quotes



from and about SRV.

"Use heavy gauge strings, tune low and play hard and fast."
SRV

"Play it the same way twice? Hell he never played it the same way once."
Jimmy Vaughn.

And probably my all time favorite, when asked what advice he had for aspiring lead guitar players:

"Learn to play rhythm first, not just any rhythm, monster rhythm."

That being said:

Enjoy.



Clean




and sober for the first time in a long time.
Him and his band Double Trouble at their peak.

Being gone less than a year later made it all the more sad.
Powerful, powerful performance.



"...I'm determined to know little girl 
you comin' home?

Come on home baby

Now now listen to me baby 
while I hold your hand
Don't want anything from you 
but be your lovin' man
Now tell me darlin' 
may I have a talk with you
Because the words I have to tell you 
they will linger through the years
I love you honey."

1:33, 1:57 and 2:47 marks.

Silence is an ocean. Speech is a river. When the ocean is searching for you, don't walk into the river.
