If you’re only interested in a single point of “reality” then you’re not interested in the truth.  Instead, you’re interested in shaping your world around your particular view.    FACTS ARE NOT PARTISAN.    No Republican facts.    No Democratic facts.    There are Republican and Democratic viewpoints and propaganda.    As far as facts go, there are only THE facts…Full Stop…End of Story!   Fox News, MSNBC, CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, NEW YORK TIMES, WASHINGTON POST, etc… all give us facts (some more than others) but it’s up to us to be open to finding them when they’re presented and separating them from the non-facts. The hardest part is accepting them. Facts don’t care if you like them or not. They are what they are. You can hype and pretend all you want on propaganda and it still won’t make them the facts.  No matter how loud you shout propaganda or if you say it over and over and over and over and over again, THAT STILL NEVER MAKES SOME,THING THAT IS NOT A FACT, A FACT!!!   Hate and love often blind us to the facts. Again, the facts don’t care. They are what they are.    The bottom line is that our lives are built on facts. We might prop ourselves up with our wishes, hopes and lies but they won’t last. What they will do is to provide false hope, hurt yourself and others and deflect you from the real direction you need to be traveling.    Alternative Facts do not exist in the the hearts of true, just, loving and wise men and women.    FACTS MATTER   FACTS ARE THE TRUTH   FACTS ARE WHAT THEY ARE, FACTS   FACTS ARE WHAT REALITY IS BUILT ON   FACTS   MATTER   Peace Gregg  

  Each day wake up and smile.   Each day find a favorite activity, person, etc…   Each day remember that favorite or yours at the end of your day.   Each day smile about it as you begin your rest into tomorrow.   Each day wake with a smile.   …     Peace Gregg

I want to leave you here with three thoughts of mine to consider.     On windy nights, have you ever just listened to the wind? Leaves rustle, wind chimes sing, trees moan as the wind moves through them. And, wise people…listen ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Raindrops must have an amazing journey as they fall to earth, knowing what life giving properties they are bringing ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ If you walk somewhere, & you don’t see something that fills you with wonder, then you need to walk again. You’ve missed something ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~   So what does this have to do with your life, my life or life in general? Well how about if you think of it this way… Thought 1 tells us that listening is one of life’s most important gifts we’re given. Thought 2 suggests that whenever we go  and wherever we go, bring gifts either spoken or unspoken, seen or unseen with us for those we encounter in life. Thought 3? Even during those times when we don’t see anything positive around us, know that it is there, regardless. If we don’t see the wonder around us, go back. We owe it to ourselves, our loved ones and life itself. Peace Gregg
