Just say what you mean

This is a situation that I have been dealing with this month.  I do not understand why people just don't
SAY WHAT THEY MEAN. Why play games? I posted this on my face book page to ask anyone to answer the question for me if they felt inclined to do so.

FEAR was the word that came back over and over.

FALSE EVIDENCE APPEARING REAL

It just is so uncalled for playing games with people. WHY?
I have always been intrigued by the human mind, and why people do what they do.  I am still trying to figure it out.

I have struggled my whole life with the issue of having expectations......I know that if one has no expectations one cannot be disappointed. This is a theme that has recurred throughout my whole life.
My mother would always say " Actions speak louder than words"  Which is the TRUTH.

Still naively I listen to what people say and am constantly disappointed and hurt.  One of these days I will get it. I HOPE.

Wishing everyone HONEST Relationships in their lives.

JUST SAY WHAT YOU MEAN. COMMUNICATE.

PEACE

Reflections of 9/11 A dark day in American History.



Ten year Anniversary of 9/11.
 An attack on America and the World. It is hard to believe that ten years have gone by.  I sat here in my home Sunday September 11, 2011 and watched all of the coverage. I sat and listened to every single name being read. I figured that is the least I could do to show my respect. I sat and cried for 5 hours.

It seems like the events of 9/11 just happened when you see the images and the amount of pain that people are still in.  Seeing all of the images and hearing the stories so painful. Nearly 3000 lives lost in a senseless act of violence. It is still hard to wrap my mind around that the World Trade Center is no longer a symbol of strength and freedom standing tall in the NYC skyline.
Ground Zero is the final resting place for so many lives lost. Nearly 1000 families still have no closure seeing their loved ones remains have never been recovered. Death toll rising everyday as we are ten years into fighting a war in retaliation for the events or 9/11.  We are losing young innocent children everyday in foreign lands.  Also the number of first responders that have fallen ill and died. So tragic.

Watching the ceremony as sad as it was. The Memorial is a sign of HOPE.
They have planted the Survivor Tree which survived the attack as well as a storm last year. Seeing life return to the area is a beautiful testament to the strength of human beings and especially New Yorkers.

God Bless America.

Ask yourselves how you can make someones day better.  Help those in need. It is our responsibility.

PEACE PEACE PEACE PEACE
