Bio
I am a person who really likes to read and write and to share what I learned with all my education. My page will mainly be book reviews and critiques of old and new books that I have read and will read. There will also be other bits, too.

Death?
We know what wearing one these information tags mean or do we? One who wears it is no longer present on this plane as we know. Have they walked through the veil or whatever one may call as one is received in death? Or have they climbed the stairway up or did they go down? There at the end of our days will be either a glorious reward or an eternal punishment. Death should not be feared for He is with us in all ways, so this little tag of identity will in a way make sure we go right.

I had a Dream....
I had a dream, and in this dream, I was much older. Me and a few friends were sitting around sharing our various memories of the past and comparing it with present of our older selves. We realized how things really did stay the same from how one dressed to the vocabulary that one spoke. We gathered at various venues along with others to share current events and even to answer questions for the younger generations. I guess in the future I will be a teacher of sorts. We realized that we as elders were still of some value too.

Fried Green Tomatoes
Green, tender, fresh Fried and delicious Fried Green Tomatoes! (I know the image doesn't match the poem, but I think this one is close for it's one of preserves and the one not on a shelf looks like tomato preserves. One of my most favorite meals although delicious but fattening for they are fried.)

The Black Cat
Walking down the street one night I came across a black cat crossing the street. You know that old saying about black cats 'don't let them cross your path' or something like that, so I tried to walk faster so that wouldn't happen, but to no avail that cat would not seem to let me get ahead of him or her on this midnight walk. What could this 'cat' want or need from me? I wondered about this and thought maybe this cat just wants the company and then all of the sudden in a flash it ran at me.

It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown
It's that time again for one of my favorite Halloween specials "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown". The one where the gang goes out trick-or-treating in their Halloween costumes from witches to ghosts and comparing what each of them got. I always felt sorry for Charlie get rocks every year. How did the 'adults' know which one was Charlie. Linus and Sally are in the pumpkin patch waiting for this entity and for what. The gang minus Linus and Sally head to an old house for a party and Snoopy after a trek across years shows up ready to party.
