Things To Be Thankful For…

RJ Walters

First, Happy Thanksgiving to all of you. My wife and I are, as usual lately, spending Thanksgiving alone but I know many of you are heading out to a large family dinner. I hope you get through it without any every dividing political discussions. 😏 Even though we don’t officially celebrate this holiday doesn’t mean that I am not thankful for what the Lord has given me. Here is my list. I am thankful for my wife of almost 34 years. She has supported me in ways I couldn’t have imagined. I am thankful that I am in good health, … Continue reading Things To Be Thankful For…

Aspies & Empathy

RJ Walters

It’s time that I put out another post about Asperger’s Syndrome and why I say I have Aspie traits. It is often said that Aspies don’t have empathy. With this post, I want to try to convince you that is not true using some things I have learned and with some personal examples. That is what this post is about.

Saving The World Is Hard – Global Warming

RJ Walters

In the coming years global warming will eventually be the number one issue for all of us (except maybe for the MAGA/Evangelical folks). I just hope that it rises to that status before it is too late to really do anything about it. We didn’t get into this mess because of one particular thing, and we won’t get out of it with just one thing. This post is about some things each of us can do to make sure global warming is addressed before it is too late.

Looking For Your Soul Mate

RJ Walters

This post is about the journey of finding that person who makes you feel whole. The person who you want to spend your life with. What I say just might surprise you, especially coming from a seventy-three-year-old.

When Fear Is Your Religion

RJ Walters

This post is based on 14 fears that dominate many in the MAGA version of the GOP. These fears were mostly gathered from a post by John Pavlovitz over at StuffThatNeedsToBeSaid. It is about how fear can totally paralyze a person’s worldview. There are many reasons to be fearful in this world today and these folks seem determined to find all of them even if they are myth. That is what this post is about.

A Hidden Gem…

RJ Walters

I was pleasantly surprised to come across a hidden gem during one of my uRV trips this summer. I have been through Dayton Ohio several times before but never really looked for a place to visit besides the Dayton Air Museum. What I found was the Dayton Aviation Heritage National Historic Site.

It’s All About Challenges…

RJ Walters

As far as I am concerned, having a satisfying life is all about challenges. When I no longer have anything that tests or stretches me I am the most prone to periods of depression. That is what this post is all about.

The Good Old Days — Revisited

RJ Walters

One of my regular viewers pointed out this post at RJsCorner from 2012. In some ways 8 years later is not as different as I thought it was. Looking back I even provide insight to myself. :)

Here is the post revisited. I would love to hear any comments you might have.

Eminently Close To The Breaking Point!

RJ Walters

It’s as if I had looked at the sun for too long. I simply can’t gather the words to put out an intelligent post of the main topic of the day. This guy has destroyed my peace in some of the last years of my life! With that in mind I am for at least the next few weeks going to be celebrating those who can say in a picture what would take me a 1,000 words to describe. I simply can’t imagine the filth that will be spewing out of the Oval Office in the coming days. Too many … Continue reading Eminently Close To The Breaking Point!

Saving The World Is Hard… Part 1

RJ Walters

How about that for a title, I’ll bet I got your attention. :) There are so many people in the world today that seem to think that every problem we have has a silver bullet solution. That means that there is one thing that we can do that will fix everything. But, some of us know better, don’t we? This is the first of a multi-part series about that topic.

President Warren As A Second Term President?

RJ Walters

It might seem strange that I want Elizabeth Warren to be a one-term President as stated in a recent post here at RJsCorner. The reasons behind that statement are what this post is all about.
