Election meaninglessness

I don’t have cable or watch TV, but here at work, they have one tuned to election coverage nonstop. Every time I happen to overhear some of it, I feel both nauseous and embarrassed. Also, offended, bored, disappointed, annoyed.

A lot of what I feel, I think, has to do with how ultimately meaningless it is.

I am here to help

This  morning, I took time to remember that people everywhere are suffering, including those I encounter everyday in my circle of existence. So, I remembered to act accordingly.

one of the many disturbing and tragic examples of why tossing people in jail is not really solving any problems. The photos for this story are really graphic. Just a heads up.

Bored? Improve yourself

When we get tired of our daily routines or are uninspired by our jobs or other life situations, I think one good piece of advice is to improve ourselves — work on our character, for instance. That’s always a lifelong project for each of us. And it makes the world a better place, too. That includes our own life environments.

I had no idea they even made stuff like this. I’ve been exploring Japanese art, and this would be a cool medium to create drawings.
