Don @ The Family Farm - Merkly - Chesterville, Ontario Dec 25 2011




Just minutes later, I was rushed to a Hospital, in an Ambulance.
It was an acid-reflux problem and not a heart attack.
I now "believe" in self healing.

Family Photo New Years Day Circa 1975

Everyday I collect ideas that interest me; for my many moods and other reasons.  Then on unexpected days I put a few toghter and a new story appears with this "different-context" that draws in other good minds. Everything grows organically.
 


August 11, 2013.
It has been so many years since I studied this picture of them.
How many years - 38 years!
I had to call them to attention, for a few moments to get them to look at me and the Camera.
Look at each Face, and think of the Stories they might reveal. Who are the Angels and who let some Sin in?

I miss every one of them, even though they did harm to me on Xmas Eve of 2008, which continues to this day.

I was no longer present to take pictures on New Year's Day of 2009. [Sorrow remains]
Were my lessons for my children, like be kind and aware of everyone and hurt no one, too structured?
My only strict command, was "stop" the hurt you are  doing to yourself and others. A Police Officer may have to stop you.
I will help you get justice, if possible.  I promise you.
I trusted Denise, my Sweetheart, and wife and Mother completely. You can see how all the family children adored her. A deeply repressed injury [Hidden] jumped up and out one day, and ambushed me and attacked with enough to rage kill me. I was lucky to have escaped, with Grace of God!

My Pilgrimage to TED Conversations - Week Two

June 13, 2019 - Week Two
Please read the following first:
http://innjustice.blogspot.ca/2013/06/my-pilgrimage-to-ted-conversations.html

Since leaving Ted Conversations, having been kicked out of the Church by some of its members, I have received the following news.
Remember, I am a Christian and a defender of our Faith, as a former Military Officer.

Just two days ago I was appointed Chaplain of my Masonic Lodge in Ontario.

1)  From a Ted Member, Juliette   June 13, 2019
"Less than 5 minutes ago: I am deeply troubled by not being able to locate a TED member who had a long history of contributions. Before deciding to write, I allowed my anger, my bitterness, my grief, my frustration to simmer away and subside...and then I made up my mind that I was going to make a different world and we can do that together.

We have come together here from every corner of the globe to create a community. None of us are perfect. Our mutual interest is connections and exchanges that inspire our positive growth.

I believe that our common purpose is to not only step forward with openness and walk towards mutual understanding but to set the stage and the tone for an inclusive collaboration on progress for those who walk these paths after us. This may be the only way for most of us to be the change we wish to see in this world.

If our intention were to fight to the elimination of those who come to our community from different life experiences, belief systems, and perceptions than our own, then we are not only wasting the opportunity that our host has graciously provided, but we are also working against everything that it stands for.

I especially admire your unselfish regard for and devotion to the welfare of others and know that you too are unsettled by the disconnection of that membership. Whenever another person is cut off from community resources because of our action, we have harmed the whole. That calls for righting our wrong. To err is human and it is in making good on our mistakes that we remain true to our self.

The solution is to negate karma to zero, Allen Savory can not bring back 40,000 elephants, so he devoted his life to restoring world's barren lands, I was angry with my self for being a silent bystander to this conversation. Now I am choosing not to be like those in Peter Singer’s video, so I am writing to right my own wrong, you can find Don, and restore his membership status. Please do."


2)  From a Ted Member,  Allan   4 days ago: 
"Jimmy, are we done with all this Don bashing now?
I haven’t seen the comments from him because they've been deleted
-
but really, were his comments so bad as to warrant such a savaging from you? How do you know how he's feeling right now after that?
I don’t share his faith either, but he is flesh and blood like me. He has feelings like me. He therefore has my respect
- faith or no faith."

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Conversation is a form of interactive, spontaneous communication between two or more people who are following rules of etiquette. It is polite give and take of subjects thought of by people talking with each other for company.

Conversations are interactive because contributions to a conversation are response reactions to what has previously been said.

Conversations are spontaneous because a conversation proceeds, to some extent, and in some way, unpredictably. However, the scope of that spontaneity may legitimately be somewhat pre-limited for the purpose of expediency, e.g. a talk show or a debate.

Conversations follow rules of etiquette because conversations are social interactions, and therefore depend on social convention. Failure to adhere to these rules devolves, and eventually dissolves the conversation.

Conversations are sometimes the ideal form of communication, depending on the participants' intended ends. Conversations may be ideal when, for example, each party desires a relatively equal exchange of information, or when one party desires to question the other. On the other hand, if permanency or the ability to review such information is important, written communication may be ideal. Or if time-efficiency is most important, a speech may be preferable.
