​Good Sunday Morning,

As with all, other good things, vacations do come to an end, and it is simply time to go back to work. I am not independently wealthy, so I do not see where I have a choice in the matter, but it is still good, because God is still in control. 

Even with that in mind, there are still times when I do wonder about that, but in the end, what else is there but to trust and obey. It is still good.

Praying that you have a blessed week. So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

​Good Morning Everyone,

You wait what seems like forever for one lousy vacation week to get here, and then what it does finally get here, it is over before it gets started, and then you are in a position where you find yourself counting the weeks till your next vacation, before this one is even finished. I think that it would be safe to say that I am not looking forward to going back to work.

It’s all good. So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

​Hello all you caffeine junkies,

Some of the best evenings that I have ever had, were spent over a pot of coffee, a pack of cigarettes and great conversation.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Yours In The Spirit Of The Bean,

Lee 

Good Morning Everyone,

There are times when I find myself doing all of the things that I need to be going as far as my writing is concerned, that I can get so caught up in it all, that I lose all sense of time, and the next thing that I know is that three or four hours have gone by, and that it is just that when you are enjoying what it is that you are doing, the rest of it really doesn’t matter.

As for the rest of my life, well the only thing that I wish that would happen would be that the rest of my life went as easily as the past few hours have been going. Of course I don’t think that it really works that way, but what else can I say except that it is what it is and nothing more.

I pray that all of you are well and that things are going just about as well as if you had planned it.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

​It’s Just A Thought.

It’s just a thought, but there are times when the days seem to go by much to quickly, and that we need for it all to slow down just a little bit, that is when it seems to start running even faster. I wonder why that is? Well it is just a thought. So it goes. Press on regardless.

​What else is there left to say?

What else is there left to say
when we have come to the conclusion
that there is nothing else left to say
yet I have never known it to fail
that when there is nothing left to say
there is always someone who has to have the last word

​Tuesday April 10 2018

there have been times
and there will be times,
when I have gotten so caught up in what it was that I was doing
at the moment
that I have lost all track of all of the other things that I needed to be doing
which may not be a bad thing
but it may not always be practical

Good Morning Everyone,

Well maybe it is me, but the only thing that I can say right now is that after fifteen years of working for the same company, I found out today, that they want proof that it is legal for me to work in the United States. So now I have to try and track down my passport, which, which the company that I am working for should already have a copy of in my personal file, so I do not know what the problem is, other then for the fact that I was the one who drew the short straw.

So you would think that all of that stuff would be in my file, but the only thing that I can do right now is to just wait and hope that I can find it before it becomes an issue. Something like this would only happen to me.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

Good Morning Everyone,

Right now I am looking forward to little more then just more work out in the real world, meaning, that it does not look like I am not going to have another day off until the start of my vacation week, which will not be until the week ending April 14. Though the money will be good at the end of all of it, getting from here to there will be a bit of a challenge to say the least, and is something that I am not looking forward to at all so the only thing that I am going to be able to do right now is simply swallow hard, and just get the whole thing done, whether I like it or not.

Of course this is not going to be giving me a whole lot of time to write, so it is simply going to be hit or miss as far as how much I am going to be able to get done, which may not be a whole lot, not that I have been writing all that much over the past couple of weeks, but at least it is all better then nothing.

In the meantime, I pray that all of you are doing well and that I will be hearing from you soon

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

​it’s just a thought

it’s just a thought, but there are times when the only thing that I can do is to just keep on doing all of the things that I need to be doing, and all of the things that I am being given, whether I like it or not, because there are times when it just seems that the only thing that I am feeling is that there are some things in my life that are out of my control, given the circumstances that I find myself living under, and I cannot afford to change the circumstances that I find myself in.

So the only thing that I am going to be able to do is to just keep up with the rest of my life as best as I can and not try and let the whole thing get to me, but when you are living though it all, it is hard to stay focused on what is really important.

What I need to be doing to keep body and soul together, and want to be doing to keep body and soul together are two different things. And the more that I live this way, the more that I find myself getting frustrated with the whole thing.

So unless you totally isolate yourself, there is always going to be a certain amount of drama, no matter how you are looking at it all. All that I want is to keep it to a minimum. Well it is just a thought. So it goes. Press on regardless.

Friday March 31, 2018 Good Friday

on this good Friday
I find myself stuck between two positions
one being what I need to be doing to support myself
and what I need to be doing in pursuit of my dreams
to be the person that people think that I should be
whoever that is
and the person that I need to be
to have the courage to be the person that very few people will 
ever fully understand or want to get to know
simply to live a quiet life
up to this point in my life
I have had more drama then I really care to remember
or to convey to you
knowing that some day soon
it will all come true
and I will have some measure of happiness
or at least contentment
until that time
I have to deal with certain things that are not entirely within my 
control

​It never seems to get any better

it never gets any better
when I am thinking that it seems to be getting better
there always seems to be something that is conspiring against me
not that I am feeling paranoid
because there are always things that are out of our control
but there are times when I just feel that I am just getting a little bit ahead
it seems that I am getting that much behind
and it is just nothing that I am going to be able to do about it all
and the world will keep on turning
no matter what it is that I am going through
and the nothing that I know
the better that I thought that it would be
just to many words
and there are times when it seems that my words are simply getting in the way

 

​What I am loving to hate.

What I am loving to hate
this whole thing with technology
we are getting to the point where we have come so dependent 
upon what we have created,
that we have become its slave
not know what we are going to be able to do without it
when the whole thing goes wrong
it seems to be the end of the world
and the only thing that I know is
how is the whole thing going to get fixed.

Good Morning Everyone,

There are times that even with the best laid plans, there is still something that can go wrong, and it often does. So the best thing to do now is to learn from the experience.  Learn from them and  hope that one of these days I will finally be able to learn form them all. In the end, it is just what it is.

So where do I go from here? I guess that I will worry about that tomorrow.  

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

​It’s Just a Thought.

It’s just another thought, but the only thing left to say right now is that when I finally figure out all of the things that I want to be doing with my life, and all of the things that I want to say about the things that I have learned in my life, I pray that I will not be so old as to be unable to do anything about it. It’s just a thought. So it goes. Press on regardless.

​What should I say?

What should I say?
when the only thing that I need to say
Is that there is nothing left to say?
but in saying
that there is nothing left to say
there is something left to say
Which is nothing?
but how can you say something
in reference to nothing
when anything doesn’t exist
so if nothing exists
How can you talk about it?
and if you are talking about it
then it must exist
because how can you talk about something that doesn’t exist
because if there is nothing
then you would be able to talk about it
because nothing is nothing
and nothing ever changes that
so what are we talking about it
I think that we are talking about nothing

but how can we be talking about nothing
when nothing doesn’t exist
and around
and around
and around it goes

​Friday, March 23, 2018

sometimes I find myself 
knowing what it is that I want to say
but not having a clue as to how to say it
maybe I will do better with the next one

Good Morning Everyone,

I hope that all of you are doing well and that there are not to many hangover from drinking to much green beer, corned beef and cabbage and green bagels. Either way, it is all good and is getting better all of the time. 

All that I can hope for right now is that there will be nothing but good things for all of us, but I do not see that happening any time soon, at least not in this life.

It’s all good. I hope to be hearing from all of you soon.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

Sunday Morning Greetings,

I pray that you all passed a blessed week. This week was filled with a lot of work issues that I am not really thrilled with, but the only thing that I can do, and that I ask you to do as well, is to pray about it, and that I will finally be able to get to the point in my life where I will be able to leave that part of my life behind me, and that I will simply be able to lead a quiet life. 

I pray that you have a blessed Lord’s Day, and that the week ahead will be filled with blessings. It’s all good.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

​It’s Just A Thought.

It’s just a thought, but there are times when I feel that there are those who claim inclusiveness, there are those who are feeling as if they are being left out. What else to do, except to just keep on living my own life, in the hope that it will end up being what it was that I had hoped that it would be. It’s all good. So it goes. Press on regardless. 

​in the end

in the end
does it really matter what it is that we take with us
as if we were able to take anything with us at all
but it is what we are able to leave behind
that can make all of the difference

​Saturday March 17 2018

so this is saint Patrick’s day
just the thought of drinking green beer
makes me want to give up drinking altogether

​Sometimes.

Sometimes
just being remembered
is enough

Sunday Morning Greetings,

Blessing for a wonderful Lord’s Day! I pray that you all passed an excellent week and that you will have a great week ahead. I ask that you keep me in your prayers this week, because of some work related issues. A whole lot of nonsense as far as I am concerned, but it is something that I need to be dealing with whether I like it or not. It’s all good. Thanks be to God!

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee

Good Morning Everyone,

The one thing that I know that one of these days I will have Sunday back as my day of rest and of worship, but at the moment, it doesn’t seem that it is going to be working out that way any time soon, and the only thing that I know is that when that does happen, I will be one of the happiest guys on the planet. In the meantime, the only thing that I can do is just keep on doing all of the things that I am doing just to make the rest of it tolerable.

I pray that all of you are doing well and that I will be hearing form all of you soon.

So it goes. Press on regardless.

Faithfully Yours,

Lee
