Do You Really Know?

 Chances are if I don't know you, you don't know me.

You may know what you have heard about me, just as I know what I may have heard about you. I'm not one to claim to know 'about' someone, just because I've 'heard' something about them. I'd rather meet them for myself.

 My dad used to say, believe nothing of what you hear and only half of what you see....

  We judge people, we accept the headlines and we believe so easily, when it's something negative about someone or something that's happening. The 'truth' doesn't seem to matter.

 For the last couple years the news has proven itself to be a leader in falsifying facts. People have been advising others to 'dig deeper' and 'get to the real story'. Don't believe what you see, don't believe what you hear...

 How often do you choose to not get to know someone, just because of something you've heard about them. Do you consider your source? Ever try to find out the 'other side of the story'?

 We treat people just like we treat information. Too many folks are too easy to believe the 'headlines' without reading the 'story' to get the full 'picture'.. Follow the moment without knowing where it's going...

 Question is ~ Do you really know the truth?

Enough of the Cold

 It's January ~

I got caught hanging out with my girl this week. It was such a nice day, It almost felt like spring! I managed to get the mudd brushed off of her, and rake up a portion of her small field. Trying to get the poop out of the way so more grass can grow.

We've had a couple days of snow, we've had the wind storm, we even had an ice storm. Each did a fair amount of damage around the neighborhoods. Now we have the normal rain, and temp's are coming up a bit. 

I personally have had enough of the cold and what claims to be 'winter weather'. I'm ready for the spring to spring!

I can tolerate the hot days much better than I can the cold ones! How about you? I also do better with the longer days when we have more light. This dark in the morning and dark by afternoon is really gloomy and hard to get through day after day. That's why you got to take advantage of them bright days when the sun is shining and spend it with your horse!

The holidays are over and most folks have packed up the decorations. We still have a few neighbors holding out with the lights outside. Most of the stores have moved onto Valentines day decorations and chocolates. Probably last years stock they need to move out because this years is coming in .

There is just no break in between holidays anymore. 

I wish it was a bit more like the 'good ole days'. The half price sales didn't used to start until the day after the holiday. And the demos and putting up displays were only ever about a month before a holiday. Now they just pile them up one on top of the other and there is nothing 'special' about any of them anymore. 

So you might as well do something for yourself !
