I just Read on Drudge Report that the UN will not be able to feed the world with their current supplies...

I personally do not mind helping others...

I can even overcome the sin of pride when it comes to helping others that could help themselves but for various reasons will not...

What I can and will not abide is giving to people that will use my generosity to neglect improving their lives just for the chance of destroying my life, using the very generosity I gave to them.

Don't let my size
fool you
Kitten just means
young
Cat

Just as the cute cub
becomes one of the big guys
So will I get big
at least I hope I will

For now
Let me dream
Stretch and contort
Cat yoga
prelude to Cat Kung Fu
As I practice my intense
stare
Brandish my little razors
and prepare to defend this...

Um
Washing machine?

Hey!
Somebody told me this was a fortress!
~sigh~
um, nevermind
Could you pick me up now?
It's kind of high up here

Good morning everyone.

Not exactly the cat bird seat,
nor an ivory tower,
a hole in one on an old fence post
most unusually done!

I think many of us feel the same. Some have never heard "one does not bite that hand that feeds it."

Life
by Ronald Reagan


I wonder what it's all about,
and why We suffer so,
when little things go wrong?
We make our life a struggle,
When life should be a song.

Our troubles break and drench us.
Like spray on the cleaving prow
Of some trim
Gloucester schooner.
As it dips in a graceful bow...

But why does sorrow drench us
When our fellow passes on?
He's just exchanged life's dreary dirge
For an eternal life of song...

Millions have gone before us,
And millions will come behind,
So why do we curse and fight
At a fate both wise and kind?

We hang onto a jaded life
A life full of sorrow and pain.
A life that warps and breaks us,
And we try to run through it again.



President Ronald Wilson Reagan, 1911-2004
