Except for my middle years which were in joyful marriage bliss (well sometimes 🥴) I have been alone in life. I just didn’t seem to understand how not to be alone. To me, being alone was far better than the … Continue reading When You Don’t Know How To Be Alone… The Art Of Aloneness
One of the reasons almost all my posts here at RJsCorner are “500 words or less”, is because of the title above. There is just so much available to read every day, and certainly not enough time to read it … Continue reading People Don’t Read Online… They Scan
I’m no different from anyone else in the world in regard to making my version of God. The last time I looked, there were about 40,000 different versions of the Christian church in existence in the world. Some say that … Continue reading My Version Of God
Thank you, Micheal, for the Progressive Christianity post above. For some reason, I have never put those two things in a “vs” position. I know that after my serious 4 years study of the Bible years ago, I always had … Continue reading Biblical vs Christlike
That’s why they call it the “Present”. This moment that you are presently living is the most precious one of your life. The past is the past, you can’t do anything about that. The future is just dreams until they … Continue reading Today Is A Gift…
Things ain’t what they used to be, and never were Will Rogers My last remaining grandparent died when I was about 12 years old, but I still remember the vacation days when we visited him on his pig farm. He … Continue reading Things Ain’t What They Used To Be.
I am moving along quite well with my Artsy project and its Mosaic wall. With this post I give you “Piano Flowers“. I guess I have to explain the title a little. 🙃 Here in my RetCom (retirement community) they … Continue reading Artsy Mosaic #4 – Piano Flowers
I thought I would simplify today, and give you a few pics of my stroll around my RetCom home. Even though it is getting more strenuous now, it’s always a pleasure to take that 0.67 mile trek. Especially on these … Continue reading Just A Stroll
Before I explain the title of this post, I must fill you in with a story (of course I do). I struggled most of my early to mid-adult life trying to figure out how to fit in, especially when it … Continue reading Peace At Last…
There have been many times that I have felt I was locked out of life. I just didn’t fit into the world around me. I was convinced that my handicaps just locked the door I wanted to go through. I’m … Continue reading Locked Out Of Life…
(click on the picture to see a larger view) Just a short Saturday post to tell you that in the coming months, I am planning on my artsy project to become a substantial part of RJsCorner. I am finally becoming … Continue reading In Commemoration Of My Artsy Projects…
I am always on the search of different ways to explain things. I don’t know why, but the title words above suddenly popped off the top of my mind. I made a brief visit to my RetCom’s social hour a … Continue reading A Waddling Gait…
Capitalism is a strange beast, well, at least the U.S. version. If you serve your market too well, the regulators will destroy your company. That seems to be the case with what is going on with Amazon lately. As yet, … Continue reading Be Good, But Not Too Good…
I have read several books about Albert Einstein. He was such an interesting character. It seemed that much of my early life was similar to his. I know he had problems with his primary education. He simply got bored with … Continue reading Surviving Formal Education
One thing about living in a RetCom (retirement community) is that you know all the “old people” celebration days. A week or so ago, it was “Centenarians Day”. Six people in my RetCom are celebrating being over 100 years of … Continue reading God, Please Don’t Make Me Live To Be 100!
I don’t know why the words in the title above suddenly popped into my conscience, but I love it when that happens. It challenges me to think about a subject that I would not have otherwise. I see domain invasion … Continue reading Domain Invasion…
One of the first “big boy” books I read at the age of 12 was a biography of Albert Einstein. That book has lived with me ever since. In my focus on Autism and Asperger’s, I have seen it frequently … Continue reading Be Focused & Persistent
I don’t know if I am going to skid sideways totally worn out into my death, but I do have several body parts that will arrive in that condition. I have tortured my knees since an early age, so they … Continue reading What A Ride!!
When I came across these two words in an article I was reading, the poet in me knew I had to write a post about them. The article was from one of my favorite Medium authors by the name of … Continue reading Autistic Statistics…
It’s been a while since I put out a quote from one of my main heroes in life. Will Rogers speaks to me like no other person. He died almost a dozen years before I was born, but he left … Continue reading Tired Of Doing Nothing…
Life is made up of transitions that all of us who are fortunate enough will go through. I won’t go over all of them here, as that would take too much time. The one this post is about is the second to last one, which is old age. Continue reading Embracing The Transition Into Old Age
