My Life Flashed Before My Eyes…

This post is about the old saying that when you think you are facing imminent death, your life flashes before your eyes! I don’t know if that is true or not, but I would kinda like a longer review of my life than that. That is what this post is all about.

I’m going to let you in on a little secret that we nerds learned but often forget. That secret is “Don’t let your cookies get too stale”. That is what this post is about, but it is not what you think it is.

Favorites Sunday – Looking Back Five Years.

I am refining my Favorites Sunday selection a little here. I have decided that I will go back 5 years to the week to see what I was talking about and if anything has changed. Update It was a tough road, but I think I am finally beginning to keep my life challenging, at least with respect to my current conditions. I have discovered that life can really be joyful regardless of what surrounds you if you work hard enough at it. Five years ago I would never have thought that the tone of the country would have turned so … Continue reading Favorites Sunday – Looking Back Five Years.

Where Everybody Knows Your Name

As usual for this time of year, I have been in a self-reflective mode here on RJsCorner. It seems that the primary focus this year is my Aspie traits. Why I think that is the case is the topic of this post.

Imagining The Next Decade

Thanks to Frank Diana over at Reimagining The Future I am putting on my dreamer’s hat for this post. I really think, or at least pray, that once that despicable person leaves the Oval Office, we will go on to make our future bright indeed. That is what this post is all about.

“Favorites” Sunday

For the next few Sundays I am going to be looking back at the 10+ years of RJsCorner to resurrect some of my favorite posts from the past. I mean those posts where I swell up when I read them again. The first of those favorites is what this post is all about.

Sex and the Church

I don’t know why I have been thinking about this lately. Maybe it is something to do with having recently read a Sojourners magazine. But I think I have figured out the mentality behind the church’s position on sexuality. That is what this post is all about.

Having My Doubts, Figuratively & Literally

It seems that Joe Biden is the “fall-back” guy for those who want to take baby steps in recovering from the previous three years. I have serious doubts figuratively and literally on that approach. That is what this post is all about.

Stepping Out Of The World That Surrounds Us.

The Shunning… And Other New Years Resolutions

For the most part I greatly admire the Amish tradition, that is except for their practice of shunning. But, in their mind it is necessary to keep the faith pure. For me, I need to keep my sanity in the coming year and I think a shunning will help me do that. That is what this post is all about.

I Need A Break!

I’m taking some time off here at RJsCorner to decompress from this somewhat repulsive year of politics and to get ready for an even uglier one coming up. I need time to finalize my plans for vastly limiting my exposure to the fourth year of idiocy inside the beltway. I think I have a path forward with my blogging but need to put some finishing touches on it. Come back on the last day of this year to see some resolutions I have made for the coming new decade.
