On the Prowl w/some brief thoughts.....

The team was gracious enough to issue a series of virtual tokens earlier today to express appreciation for this wonderful journey so far.  It has been quite challenging.    

Before I personally go "dark" for the day, I wanted to release this from one of my favorite Actors, Shahrukh Khan.  He's an icon in India and wanted to feature this with a message that truly resonated:

 

It also reminded me to truly celebrate life--and be grateful for it.  I especially salute him as he responded to the fools in this manner, "..."this is a country where my father fought for freedom and he gave me a piece of it. So I am very proud of it and I am not giving away what my father gave (me) to anyone or leaving any which way. So please shut up."

Working Away With Mid-Week Thoughts.....

It has been quite a week and our team has been hard at work assessing the World.   It was so distressing as our team finalized the Notations On Our World on the Russian Plane that got blown out of the sky and some of the reporting our team was reviewing was disturbing.    It was also quite a day on the political scene in the United States with Kentucky electing a Republican Governor our team continues to assess as part of the on-going assessment of the US Political Scene--including the truly challenging times the Democratic Party is in right now.     

Interesting times we live in as I take comfort in the following thoughts:

It is also the advent of Thanksgiving Month in the United States.  Although I gave the team a reprieve for Halloween, the consesus was to "get back to work" as some curation was done on Twitter and a number of week-end notations was released.    It is about serving in trying to live up to the Biblical admonition that from those who have been given much, much is expected.

As this month of Thanksgiving commences, it is also a day to honor the Veterans of the United States.    I look forward to November 11 to join the celebrations in Laguna Niguel as I hope to be able to get myhands on a "Green Light" to honor the veterans.     I commend Walmart to have been able to spreahead this and was so proud to have added my name to it:


As November has begun, the team was gracious enough to let me borrow this from the archives that +Jonathan Huie & his team comply that is ever so timely to remember all that we're blessed with:
