I see my congressman today. He is a friend. I ask him why he hasn't been on TV (I meant being the voice of ordinary people) He said he was on tv all week but most networks wanted to take about the island. I thought he must have meant Cuba. I looked on line for any video I could find of him. There he is shirtless on a beautiful island for a week as a fantasy get away. He is suppose to be alone on the island. Is he really, we all wonder. THAT is what he has been doing on TV. Talking about himself on this island? I haven't seen him on TV since I only watch the most popular clips from news shows on line. I guess his newclips weren't very popular. Who wants to hear about how he speared that fish, when we have serious issues facing our country. So that is my congressman in action. Weird. Maybe he'll pose in a calender next.....I'm just saying ....it could happen. No. Second thought. He's really not like that. He is a nice humble kind of guy.
Also I see Big bad Sheriff Joe has raided a car wash and arrested illegal immigrants washing cars for a living. Those bad people washing our cars! How dare they! It would be so nice to see Sheriff Joe's posies arresting gangs members or drug pushers. But no, he is always playing it safe. Next week it will be dead beat dads (Dads that aren't paying support to their children) getting arrested. Maybe the dead beat dads can wash cars and give the money to their children for support.
I feel like the world has gone Mad! I'm sure its been on the edge of madness for a while. I'm trying very hard not to read the news....its almost impossible. I love current events. I love politics. But till I'm stronger I must focus on beautiful positive lovely things and people .And those things are not being covered by the news media. That is what I love about Sunday. Going to Church where we can truly be edified of Spiritual things. I now teach the eight year olds. They were fantastic today. I'm having so much fun with them. Today we learned that being in Church on Sunday is time to listen to the speakers. After they listened to my lessons we had pretzels. Then we listened to this song and photos on my laptop.
I hope everyone reading this will watch this. Its so beautiful and so simple. Maybe this will link you to it on Youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5uSGSvKy6Io
I'm still feeling weak. Although I'm looking forward to my new student tomorrow. He is 11 years old. I hope we get along well. I want to help him get caught up with his school work. Its wonderful that J's school is recommending me as a tutor. I am much better prepared then I was several months ago.Much of the school work is online. Its so helpful for my lesson preparation.

Well, you certainly seem to make a living for yourself with tutoring, well done! My advise for everything else: Take the rough with the smooth and beauty will show itself. It can't be good (and people can't be good) all the time, there has to be space for bad and negative things, for us to know when something is beautiful and real. Big hugs K xx
