I love 10 cents specifically from 1968. I will keep any 10 cents though and thanks in advance.

The man who has his millions will want everything he can lay his hands on and then raise his voice against the poor devil who wants ten cents more a day. ~Samuel Gompus.

[to a crying entrepreneur] "Money and tears don't mix. Get over it. Life's hard, money doesn't care. Your tears don't add any value."
Yeah, money don't care.  What do these coins have to say for themselves at 49 years old?  I know I have a lot to say at this age, and sometimes I tear up.  Until I see a ten cent, then I smile.  Was it on my couch the whole time or did somebody leave it there for me?  Either way, worth a teardrop.

How about the shilling?

Nelson Mandela Former President of South Africa. July 18, 1918 - December 5, 2013. Happy Nelson Mandela International Day Everybody!

Today is this paragon's birthday.  How does one wish a departed soul a Happy Birthday?

Just like this I guess:

Love, from the whole world.
You had/have such an impact on my life Tata Madiba explaining why four months after your demise,  I had Hindu tonsure done.  It was April 5, 2014, Sir.

I will never forget you. 
Since you left the world, the world has never been the same.  You must have heard all about it, the United States of America and such.  We miss you.

Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here


You popularized Our Greatest Fear by Marianne Williamson.  I know it by heart because of you.  It helps me get by and I share it any chance I get.  I always mention you.




Happy birthday Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela.
Ndiyabulela.
Enkosi.
Rest In Peace.

Remember the grandmother Angie Thorne, consoling her grand daughter, Nevaeh Porter,as they ran from a destructive wildfire?


Here she is holding strong as she can.  I don't regret making a second donation to #Canadian Red Cross.  Financial aid is what is being required at the moment instead of material goods.  Thank you.

May #God have mercy, mercy, mercy.

Cash donations for those affected by wildfires in British Columbia recommended verses donating material goods which have potential of going into waste. Thank you Global News and CBC Radio 1. HARAMBEE! Hii!


Coat of arms of Kenya - Wikipedia

Harambee is a Kenyan tradition of community self-help events, e.g. fundraising or development activities. Harambee literally means "all pull together" in Swahili, and is also the official motto of Kenya and appears on its coat of arms.

"When man finally learns to control the elements... When the winds will be quiet and the earth cannot be torn apart...When there will be no loneliness... no destitution... no war... When the last hungry man, woman or child is fed... Only then will there be no need for the Red Cross."

Headlines say: 'They were not prepared': B.C. fire evacuees frustrated with officials, Red Cross -Josh Dehaas, CTVNews.ca Writer

Bob Marley - Everything's Gonna Be Alright

It is easier said than done, Bob!

Evacuees from the BC Wildfires 2017, please bear with the websites that are down.  Knowing #Canada, I am certain someone is working hard to fix the problem.  We were all caught unawares by the fast moving fires.  There are certain matters that one can never be fully prepared for, and this is one of them.  Please do not give up.

I am sorry about the poor communication reported between government officials and the #Canadian Red Cross.  My recommendation is we strive for better communication networking abilities, among all government agencies and organizations in #Canada as we move forward.  It is 2017 after all.

Thinking of you, evacuees and the people set out to help the situation.  News first heard on CBC Radio.  Thank you.

Thank you CTV News.  (Link)

A TearDrop. Tears are made out of a single teardrop. Precious. Tears are healing. cleansers!

My photo
Tears at birth, at death. Born. With a beautiful flower. A flower to be respected, loved and cared for. Not to be damaged. A flower to be let to unfold in its own good time. A flower to be kissed by the right person, at the right time. Not to be mangled. Not to be dismantled at a young age. A flower to be preserved until the time is right. A flower to be benefited from with permission and gentleness. Let us begin a new age where men and women pay attention to the fact that between the groin are valuables we carry with us. They are, foreskin, penis, testicles, vulva, hymen, vagina. These valuables are for pleasure, procreation, peeing, periods - and I forgot the anus which has many functions, including keeping us flushed out and healthy. As we teach head, shoulder, knees and toes, a brilliant idea would be to teach about flowers and butterflies while we are at it. 1 Thessalonians 4:3 "For this is the will of God, your sanctification: that you abstain from sexual immorality;" "We all dream dreams of unity, of purity; we all dream that there's an authoritative voice out there that will explain things, including ourselves."
