Mostly Pictures

 I haven't been the best at keeping up my blog, but I post when I remember.

My birthday is coming up next month.  I began giving family gifts on my birthday a few years ago....well maybe 8 or more.  It makes me smile to say it's my birthday, GIFTS FOR EVERYONE.  I got some goodies this year and I can't wait.  I got myself this awesome keyboard that looks and feels like a traditional typwriter.  I LOVE LOVE LOVE it.  Happy birthday to me early LOL.  Well, this was a shorty because I have a ton and a half of pictures to share.

More later, and hope everyone enjoys!!!

Pictures and updates

 This past year was so rough.

We had to stay inside and away from everyone. People were terrified of a "pandemic" of Corona virus, instead of what they should be terrified of.  What they should be terrified of is the forced changes to "history", "historical events", everything that's been deemed as racist, and much more ignorance, that I can't even do anything but shake my head at.

We lost my bf's uncle this past year.  He had contracted corona, but I honestly think what killed him was the ignorance of it all.  He was confronted with people in odd looking gear, he wasn't in his right mind so naturally he fought them, and had to be put in a medical coma to make sure that would stop, but because they put him in a position where he had no chance to move around and avoid such things as fluid in lungs, pneumonia etc, his lungs degraded to the point that revival was no longer an option.  He had just turned 60 that summer, and by winter, he was gone.

My father had several consecutive strokes, was much older, he would have been 84 this February, but he didn't make it.  The cause.....not his strokes, not corona, which the "recovery" staff gave him during his lengthy stay.  No, what killed my father I believe was loneliness and heartbreak from the inability to even hold his wife's hand, to have any loved ones visit, and to sit alone in a room that only the staff, that infected him, could come and go in.  He got over the so called dangerous pandemic, what he didn't get over was the lunacy that forced medical care to take a very downward and uncaring turn.  In short, I blame the government, forced sanctions, and WHO for at least the 2 deaths I had to personally deal with.  I'm certain they were responsible for mass murders world wide.

That carried into this year, he died in the beginning of January.  Since then my sister has had to put two of her beloved fur babies to sleep.  I can only imagine what a mess she was since I know I cried over them both myself.

I can honestly say, I'm lucky for all the people that didn't die in this past year.  It was a mess, and still is. Murders are on the rise, people are just plain awful.  I will say that I think I am forming a closer relationship with my stepmother through it all, so that's one positive thing that's come from all of this.  At any rate, I had some coloring books I'd wanted to give to my dad to help him with his finer motor skills when he got to that part of his recovery.  One of them was a book with some of the psalms in it along wih some pretty pictures.  I dedicated that book to him, and will share some of the pictures I've done in there with everyone.  I think I may mail them to this or that person too, just to share something I think my dad would have loved.

Anyway, please enjoy, I included the title page along with the pictures.  It's a lovely book, and one worth the purchase if you get the chance.

I also got to share seeing the north star with my family, including my stepmother.  I hope dad got to see it somehow before he died, I think he would have loved that.

Hopefully you enjoy them as much as I've been loving making something for my dad.

Fakebook/Twatter AKA Hitler/Lenin/Stalin

 Anyone that knows me, knows I only speak truth.

It has been hurting my heart to see people allowing the freedoms of some be quashed, while doing nothing to stop it.  I served my country, not just for my freedoms, but yours, and all who came before and will come after.  If I see someone doing wrong to another, I don't just walk away, I act, I say something etc.  That is who I am, and I'm sure my family would tell you, I've nearly gotten us all killed by marching up to this or that person and doing just that very thing.

My mother told me over and over during my lifetime that I couldn't save the world.  She's right, I can't.  But what I can do is to tell the truth of what I see.  I sit back and I watch, I walk with my eyes open and my ears able to hear, ready to act or react in a crisis.  I actually function with a far more clear head, and much better in a crisis or under stress.  I've intervened in people committing abuses to others in public, racists choosing to check bags of one "race" while passing me through.  I stop and tell them, this is not right, you WILL check my bags and receipts if you are checking ppl.  There is a big difference between doing the right thing or letting it go.  Even calling about something may mean that it's too late, when what was called for was action, saying something or standing up for what is right.

The difference I see recently between me and a LOT of people, is that I stand up for not just my rights, but the rights of EVERY person within my hearing, reach, speech etc.  I don't sit idly by and wait for someone else to handing something.  If something is wrong, I address it.  I have always and will always take the side of right vs wrong.  I have had friends of every walk of life.  I have had people be openly racist to me, and I approached those times with understanding.  You don't have to be violent to make a difference, all you have to do is see a need and step in to fill it.

I am not perfect, I am not infallible and I like everyone else, make mistakes.  I'm not saying I never have or never will, I'm sure being an imperfect person, I will continue to make mistakes in my life.  When I make them, I try to learn from them, I try to grow, so I can be a better person, with a broader understanding of life and the world around me, and all the people in it.  To be perfectly honest, I don't think of people as my black friend, my Chinese friend, my gay friend etc.  They are JUST my friends.  I don't think of Americans with labels either.  Do I acknowledge that someone's ancestry, history, traditions etc may be different from mine?  Of course, but I like learning about other cultures and traditions.  I always thought it would be freaking awesome to be Jewish, because think of the history there.  The very beginning of tracking time, events etc, came from them.  They have so many rich traditions that are so meaningful, and while they could explain them to me, I don't know that I could fully appreciate them as it's not my tradition.  I love to learn the meaningfulness of such deep family traditions and ties.

The difference between me and many I see today is, I refuse to bury my head in the sand and pretend that what I see happening isn't.  I see people's thoughts, ideas, sharing of news etc being banned on Twatter, Fakebook, etc.  I can't sit by and say nothing, even when I don't agree with their point of view.  It is not freedom for some because they share a point of view, it is freedom for all.  Those of you who have seen this happening and say nothing for your fellow man....to you, I say shame.  You are the enablers of the brownshirts, the encouragement of a new Nazi/communist regime.  You seem to be fine with some people losing their freedom of voice because it's not you......guess what, Hitler Germany turned a blind eye too, and every one found out that one may have their freedoms today, but tomorrow, they are gone.  I say to anyone who is not a normal, run of the mill person.....meaning, you have some difference about you that others can target....you will be next, and then the next group and so on.

I won't sit by and allow others to think that silencing some is ok, while others have the freedom to express their angst, anguish, frustration, joy, news, sorrow etc and etc and etc.  Anyone who is of ANY faith group should recall, Hitler didn't JUST incarcerate Jews.  He incarcerated any and all who didn't fit his fucked up ideal.  Gays, clergy who's opinion differed, you name it, that bastard put them all away to silence them.  Anyone who is gay, or jewish, or black or chinese, or whatever label you choose should be wary, you might be the next to be told your freedom of speech, religion or whatever else doesn't matter.

I implore you to recall history.  The way that Hitler's Germany began, by silencing some, then internment, mass murder etc.  It all began with silencing one, then a group, than another.  This is fascism in action.  Communism, and socialism is no different.  They want to regulate everything anyone thinks, speaks, believes etc.  I see this clearly NOW, at THIS moment in time.  I hear politicians, and have heard them for this past year and beyond passing hate speech, labels etc to others while practicing this hate openly.  What do you think they are saying when they say punish people with conservative values, let's put them in reeducation camps, let's silence them so that our voice is the only voice, even when it's not a voice of reason.  They are saying they value the same ideals that Hitler valued, they want only those in agreement with them to have a voice.  They want to punish, jail, kill etc, those who don't want government in every facet of their lives.  This is what conservatism is, wanting to live life and be allowed choices of how to live it, rather than being told how by a governing faction.

I have seen and heard all of this with my own eyes and ears, not taken out of context by a biased media, and only listening to part of a story.  I listen to the WHOLE story, and make my decision.  I have heard people calling for their "soldiers" to punish those who's values and morals are faith based.  I have seen people marching, murdering and destroying unchecked.  I have witnessed peaceful protests being undermined by those with an immoral agenda, with violence.

You may believe me, you may not, but I have been here with my eyes open.  If you are determined to be stubborn and blind, I can't make you move to action or see.  All I can do is my duty, to bring it to your attention.  What you do with it from there is up to you.  I have a great deal of love and respect for my friends from all walks of life, and this is why when I see a wrong, I strive to correct it.  I can't make others do the same.  I can't make people think in a broader sense, I can't make people see the greater benefit for all when they are determined to be selfish and out for themselves, or a small group.  I can tell what I see, I can give you the truth as I see it happening all around me.  I others choose blindness, or complacency because their self interests aren't being harmed, I can't help with that.  All I can do is say, today one group is being marginalized and tomorrow it will be another, are you sure that it's not you and your group?

Be that as it may, this entry is the truth as I see it, I will not be silent and watch Fakebook and Twatter violate the rights of others, and be content that my rights are not being violated.  I will no longer be on any media platform that encourages divisiveness and hate.  If you need to reach me, you may email me at zeffyra@hotmail, or zeffyra69@gmail..... I will be on parlor, spreely, and any other social media who encourages the freedoms of ALL and you may also find me there.

I hope that by the time your eyes are opened, it's not too late and you find your freedoms gone too.

Sharing a few pics, I've been reading too, so might be a bit before there are more.

Theft of Freedom of Speech

Watching Americasvoice.news, I keep seeing story after story about the fraud in this year's Presidential election.

I can't understand how anyone, Democrat OR Republican would want to be the ostritch and bury their heads in the sand about this issue.  We have been censored on Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, and many others. People sharing valid views or news stories have been banned from social media sites, because the sites don't want people to see these stories.  EVERYONE should be worried for their freedoms, because if allowed to steal the voice of some now, means they will steal the voice of all later.

Personally, I believe there should be class action law suits on the social media sites who's practice it is to ban or delete posts that fall under our constitutional rights to speak our minds, or share current news.  I also believe there should be class action law suits vs each and every so called media station who practices bias editorials rather than news.  They are robbing us of valuable information, editorials are not news, they are opinion.  I do not want to be dictated as to what I should think, and no one out there should be satisfied with the constant brain washing of yourselves or your children.  I believe we should have class action law suits on terrorist factions such as BLM, and Antifa, who have openly taken part in riots, destruction, mayhem and murder, as well as criminal lawsuits of the same.

These factions scream racism, while spreading hate and division between races.  This is the perpetrator of reinstilling racism back into society, and is an absolutely abhorrent practice.  They call for the defunding of police, while murder has risen 90% because of police suppression.  Don't let these allegations blind you, think critically.  The self same people have called on the police to enforce, MANDATES (which are suggestions, not law) about masks, or gatherings.  What police are coming to your aid when you call?  I can't blame them for not wanting to go, people are demonizing people who have taken and oath to protect and serve the public and enforce the law of the land.  They aren't rich, they aren't the highest paid people on the planet, and yet, they put their lives on the line for me and for you every day they put on their uniforms.  As far as I'm concerned, they are grossly underpaid for that kind of potential cost to themselves and their spouses, and children.

These factions would have you believe that Republican stance means facism......let's define facism:  a political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition.  Wikipedia would have you believe that this is a far right sentiment, and depending on the political compass in other nations, this could be true, HOWEVER, that would only stand IF the far right in any particular nation, was, by comparison, the far left in America.  Let me reiterate, I classify myself in some ways as far right, in come ways and medium, and I also have some political views that tend to the left.

I will explain.  The far right typically holds to less government being more, and more power to the people.  I don't want laws to govern every aspect of my existence, and people that do.......well, let's just say they haven't thought critically about what that would mean or look like. Midline is where most of the typical stances on law, or morality stand.  My views that would look more to the left are those including certain aspects of abortion law, and those concerning LGBTQ community.  The difference here is that, I don't believe we should inundate society to a bunch of new laws, creating justice for some, and supression for the majority.  I do however, believe that people should be trusted to have a moral compass, and all have rights under the constitution.  I tend to think that questions of morality are more of a personal thing than a government one, and should be treated as such.  IE: should I get an abortion......and critically thinking this through by what your family and morality has taught you.  If you are using abortion as a means of birth control, you are simply not behaving in a highly moral lifestyle, and yes, I think that is wrong.  If an abortion is indicated due to health limitations etc, I have to stand on the ground that letting the government have control over such situations is wrong.  So, though it initially SEEMS to be a more left approach, the fact I would put the decision into people's hands brings it back to the right.  I believe that LGBTQ people have the same inalienable rights to freedom as anyone else, the same for any race.  The constitution stands clear to me on these things, and I don't believe that dictating laws on "recognizing" LGBTQ issues is truly a necessary thing.  They are already recognized in the constitution.  Everything else seems to be more of a morality/religious conundrum, and I don't think people's consciences should be forced to one side or another.

Now let's explore the meaning of facism, it is suppression at it's core.  Suppression of speech, political, moral, and religious freedom, as well as others.  It is the removal of freedom due to government being placed into every aspect of life.  Total government control, police state etc.  Now let's explore what those screaming facsism, or racism are doing.  They are calling for division/recognition of black people.  They are not calling for recognition of any other race, and the very NAME of the organization in itself should be an affront to EVERYONE of EVERY race and religion.  I will address that issue in a bit, for now I want to stick with the issue of facism. BLM, and Antifa, specifically, as well as some FAR LEFT nutjobs smoking way too much crack, would have you believe that defunding the police would be a good idea.  When there are not police, who is it then, in crisis would step up to the plate and "protect" us all from injustice and broken laws.  This, again, is where facism rears it's ugly head once again.  Absent of local police and authority to protect us from lawbreakers, the National/Federal Government would be called upon to step in to protect the people.  Thus the far left would have another piece of the puzzle to take complete control of every American citizen, and further us towards complete facism or socialism....neither of which is a good idea for ANYONE!

Facism also touches on the issue of race.....exactly what do you think it means when a faction names itself Black Lives Matter.  It means they are holding that race above all others, calling attention to it, dividing it from the rest of the society in which it belongs.  This is, in fact racism.  This is facism.  We can also determine that the nationalism named in the definition is not the same thing as being patriotic or proud of your country.  Rather, nationalistic views/states would be totalitarian states in which NATION is more important than people.  This has never been said by ANY republican EVER.  However it is screamed by Antifa and far left "Democrats" which is really, at this point more of a cult if you ask me.  People saying they will riot if others dont vote the way their socialistic organization wants them to, thus giving full power and authority to those that they want in power.......ppl, wake up please and look at what is being done to our country.

We are systematically losing our freedoms, and we are being spoonfed diarrhea telling us that it is for our own good.  We are allowing some jackasses on "social media" to quell our voices and freedoms, stealing our basic rights from us.  Exactly what do you think comes next.

Congratulations to the blind for allowing themselves to be brainwashed into loving Trump when he was on NBC stating you're fired.  Being trolled into putting importance into "reality" tv shows such as The Apprentice. Being told love him for his candor, and abruptly brutal honesty.  I never watched reality TV, but I remember the commercials before I deleted TV, sensationalizing, see who gets fired this week.  Congratulations to all of you with such a short memory, that you loved Trump when told to bye the very same people who are now convincing you to hate him, and have been for the past 4 years, for the VERY SAME qualities he has shown as President.  What a good bunch of people you have been to fall for the idiocy that the far left would have you fall for, being brainwashed into believing that they give half a shit about you.

As for me and mine, we will continue to fight for freedom, and I will honor my military vow to protect America from ALL enemies foreign and domestic.
