Freeing oneself From Religious Captivity !

Image
                                                                       I was born , free from religion , free from any racial hatred or bias that we all know of too well . I was also born in Dublin , Ireland , a staunch catholic country , known for its spreading of the faith throughout the world . I was born with the innocence and purity of every baby born to every mother that ever conceived . Just like you all I was christened ,and if you were born into a catholic family like I was you will understand the traditions and the religious expectations of being catholic . As you got a little older you were confirmed in another very religious ceremony . These are the trappings of growing up as a young catholic child in Ireland .                                                                       All of the feast days are celebrated in the schools , and you learn what special rules you have to abide by pretty quickly . Good Friday pubs are closed , and you must abstain from any form of me

Celebrating Easter with Bolshevik's !

Just Thought it was a Nice Pic !                                                                      Here we are , and its Saturday evening , the night before Easter Sunday . And I haven't got a thing done . I haven't had my hair clipped , I haven't had my monthly manicure and pedicure , and I feel lost . Lost in the sense that these things will have to stop being so important in my life . Its doing my wife's head in . Especially the fact that I have more manicures/pedicures than she has . This form of self gratification is going to have to stop . Its costing me a small fortune . And I wouldn't mind so much , but a good friend of mine has her own exclusive salon called Enhance Beauty Clinic in Ballyfermot . Its a bit far away for me to frequent , but she is the best in the business . This is for you Sandra .                                                                     Any way having gotten that outa my system , I need to knuckle down and take a little

Palestine . Such an Easy Task For Me !

                                                                     Earlier on today I had a conversation with a certain Mr. J Berkowitz on facebook . The conversation was basically about someone else's feelings of despair because of the situation in the world with regard to the lack of understanding , the lack of love , and how every opinion with regard to the same was hate filled especially with people's attitudes toward Israel  . And this left the lady who was so full of despair , unhappy and she asked why this sort of thing was even happening in the first place . I would describe her feelings as being maybe a little naive , but I understood her concern .                                                                    I explained , in my opinion that the reason for such hate was simply down to brain washing , and lack of consideration for others , I also explained in my opinion , that it is understandable to be upset with what is going on . At this point this a certain

Doing The Body Jerk !

                                                                      Today I have just found out what has failed me miserably in understanding what it was that was happening to my body just before I fell off to sleep at night . I don't know if you have had similar experiences , but just before I would fall off to sleep my body would jump and jerk in the bed for some unknown reason . And today I was reliably informed what was actually happening to me .                                                                      Seemingly , just as you are about to drop off your mind is of the understanding that your body is ready to move over in to sleep mode . But , as is the case on occasions with me , because you are so tired your mind doesn't get the opportunity to consult with your body , it being so tired and all , and decides that you are in fact in the process of dying . At this point your mind goes in to survival mode and jerks you out of what it believes is your very last m

You Really do Sicken Me !

Its all you're both deserving of . The Simpsons !                                                                         Last night I took a rest from my usual blogging responsibilities , but found myself so disappointed that I kinda felt a little guilty today . Don't get me wrong , but talking to others about this and that does wonders for my conversational skills . Before starting this journey , I wouldn't give you the time of day . Not because I was rude or anything , it was simply because those conversational skills hadn't been used loosely in a very long time . Now I am feeling guilty over not using them , you really can't win can you ? Anyway ....................................                                                                       I am kinda angry today . I am in a not so pleasant mood today due to me feeling a lot of hatred ................no I take that back , let me say a very strong dislike for certain people in the Irish Community

I Really Don't Like You !

                                                                             Normally I don't have the time to do this . But today surprisingly , I had the time to just sit with myself and have a pretty varied discussion about me and my pretty little idiosyncrasies . As I said I don't usually set aside time for self exploration , but today , yes today was a little different . It was different in so many ways , that to explain it could never give you a feeling of understanding . I was like Alice sliding down that hole , and emerging in a place so surreal , so short of anything that looked or felt recognizable or comfortable even . I could have been on another planet for all I knew . This self examination was definitely getting to me .                                                                             I asked myself , " Are you happy and comfortable in this place " ? My reaction was swift and smooth ," No I find this place both threatening and very very

And They Don't Like It !

                               When it comes to saying something about any given subject or topic , you tend to know who and who will not be interested in a particular point you decide to open up about . You know for example that you have a certain readership who like and tend to go for the silly little anecdotes that fill my blogs at times . You also know from a personal angle , who will be interested in stories of human kindness and I suppose simply how the other half lives . But you also find out pretty soon , that blogging in a certain direction like the poster says , real shit , whether it will be read or just plain ignored .                             Since starting to do this pastime of mine , and I have mentioned it before , I have found not surprisingly , that The United States readership like to get involved in anything political I may put up here .                                                                As I said unsurprisingly they have this appetite for change
