I'm here to help us all.
I'm unlimiting myself so I may help unlimit you.
I expect nothing in return.
Like the sun gives light to the moon not expecting the moon to owe it one -Linkin Park (where i heard that first)
I intend to be a part of the solution, not a part of the problem.
If we all give more, we all get more to give more again.
It's in the "want to" we discover the "how toβ
If it is meant to be, it is up to me
NEWS AND.... THE REST OF THE STORY
Linked stories are for your consideration - I never endorse anyone's opinion but my own. All my writings are well researched; particularly stories pertaining to the environment, renewable energy, military science and bicycling.
Note: As a former American soldier, I don't take sides in international conflicts and try to be objective.
βOf all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baronβs cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. They may be more likely to go to Heaven yet at the same time likelier to make a Hell of earth. This very kindness stings with intolerable insult. To be βcuredβ against oneβs will and cured of states which we may not regard as disease is to be put on a level of those who have not yet reached the age of reason or those who never will; to be classed with infants, imbeciles, and domestic animals.β

I'm tired of all the nonsense in the world today. Minds is a step in the right direction. I like gardening, cooking, photography and freedom. Hoping all that visit enjoy my random posts on things that interest me.
