From the Force Ghost of Obi Wan

The truth. It is clear to me that everyone seems to have an opinion about the truth.

In this polarized world, is it even possible to know the truth, the real truth? I was recently inspired by something said by the Force Ghost of Obi Wan Kenobi in the movie Return of the Jedi. I had to rewind the movie to hear Obi Wan say, "Many of the truths we cling to depend greatly on our own point of view". So wise, right? This sure seemed true for today. Perhaps the Jedi Master is speaking to our current events, but I have a New Hope for events in the days to come.

Ground Control to Major Tom

Five years ago, David Bowie died. His birthday only two days before.

Interested in exploring space as a work of art? You can count on David Bowie for that.

His electric music makes you feel excited and strange. In fact, sometimes other worldly. But, it is his storytelling of Major Tom traveling to space that made me a forever fan. Space Oddity remains one of my favorite songs ever (since age three). I think astronaut Chris Hadfield would agree as he performed Space Oddity on the International Space Station. If you are a fan like me and wanting more, HBO is showing David Bowie: The Last Five Years, a documentary of the last five years of David Bowie's life.

Peace Out 2020!

Good bye to the roller coaster.

Everyone likes a roller coaster, right? Well, not so fast. Many people do not like roller coasters or even if they do they prefer to watch versus ride. That's just like this year with COVID-19, politics and my remote learning. I think some people prefer to watch the rise and the fall versus living it. So with that, I say a big "Peace Out" to 2020. See you all in the New Year!
