Gulf of Margaritaville

The photo above made me smile.

There’s currently (early 2025) media buzz about changing the Gulf of Mexico’s name.

Coincidently, while cleansing my Facebook account, i stumbled on this old FaceBook post i did years ago. Can’t recall what inspired it:

What if David & Goliath formed a partnership?

Impossible?

Changing what we see changes what we see.

What spiritual pain

Not the photo i wanted to use but it will do for now. Sparing you the story.

What spiritual pain do you want in your life?

i’ll gladly take the pain of having a heart that never rests from continuously thinking about better ways to serve where i can and when i can. Church is every step. Nothing fancy. Simply good and decent energy all day, every day.

What pain do you want to avoid?

i want to avoid the pain that stems from a lack of: gratitude, surrender, patience, and forgiveness. The pain from emptiness and lack of vibrant purpose.

Opposites, spirit

When someone feels driven to serve at the highest level, unasked and unusual questions are the reward.

i don’t have the answers, i have the feeling.

Right like you mean it

Garmin GPS webpage
Satellite tracking device for Glacier. Upgraded to the newer model last year. While it’s similar to a compass, it most closely mirrors the Mobile phone. You can communicate where wifi and cell signal doesn’t exist. You’d be completely disconnected without this device. On a rare occasion, this could be disasterous.

Right like you mean it.

This is intentionally different (and similar) to today’s first post, “Write like you mean it“.

People want to be right.

People don’t necessarily want others to be wrong.

People simply do not want to be “the people who are wrong”.

Life, the Universe, ideas, and literally everything has a ying and yang. An opposite.

They say opposites attract.

Opposites divide too.

Last night at a political rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, former President Donald Trump was apparently shot in a likely assignation attempt.

Right and wrong is a simple example of opposites.

Perhaps ‘right like you mean it’ conveys a belief that has no opposite.

Killing another person seems irrefutably wrong.

Self-defense is a different story.

A political rally…could the gunman have held the belief that he was acting in self defense?

This is one way life gets complicated.

i’m not smart enough to know a definitive answer in either direction.
