On the Eve of the New Week: Personal Thoughts (Updated)

Our team released a Notation earlier tonight on the changing Iran.    It prompted me to remember another milestone as I remembered the Green Movement and looked up this beautiful clip as Mir Hossein Mousavi launched his campaign: 

As I write this, he is still under house arrest along with his wife.      The other leading internal opposition leader, Mehdi Karoubi, continues to be under house arrest as well.   I welcomed President Rouhani's warning against the media--even though what I view as dead-enders in Iran seem to have the upper hand as reported so eloquently by the New York Times' Thomas Edbrink earlier.      This was picked up by Jeb Bush on Twitter as an example of why the "Mullahs" cannot be trusted--even though he did not seem to reaize the realities on the ground.   

Our team also released a Notation on India and the aftermath of the elections--it is one of the on-going projects we'll be working on in the aftermath of the elections.    Part of the explanation has to do with the so-called commuanlization of the country that the BJP had which led one of my favorite actors, Shahrkoh Khan, to speak out on it:

Interesting times as a new week is before us.....

Working Away with thoughts on #attitude and #humanity

This week has been a bit of a reflective throughout #Outsiders as the team has shared thoughts and ideas and settled on the artist of the week featuring Nina Simone.   But, the work of the outsiders is never ending as epitomized by a number of updates the team released throughot the properties.  I was surprised by the rejection of the KeystoneXL pipeline now --but not shocked by it since the economic viability was suspect. 

The team was gracious enough to allow me to reflect upon this as we see off another week by featuring this +Jonathan Huie released last night.    This from Victor Frankl goes to heart of what life is about despite all the injustice and inhumanity we're subjected to in our World today:


As I was finishing this off, the Guardian of London reported on the brothers charged with hate crimeis and how they say they were inspired by Donald Trump.    This is as Trump and Carson have just been approved for Secret Service Protection.  What I found so hopeful was seeing humanity in action yet again at St. Timothy's Parish this morning on one of my Community Outreach commitments to see the wonderful souls joined to get the Pantry prepared to serve.   

The beauty and majesty of life....May we be ever so blessed.

I wish all a fabulous Week-End.

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."
