As I go through life, I wonder if complex situations demonstrating issues in various places are brought to me simply because I have a skill set and / or a divine mission and an ability to put my hands to the keyboard. And I feel a responsibility to other seniors to make them aware. If I enlighten one person and give words to their life, issues, hassles and that helps them, I feel a sense of accomplishment.
I was born with writing talent...didn't learn it in school. My junior high teachers told my parents I had a gift, God bless them. I loved them all so. Now, as I age, I know that God gives us gifts and our gift back to God is to use our gifts in order to serve those whose voices may be silent simply because they can't write, don't know how to blog, have no one to speak for them........
The latest issue is the Home Depot on Long Island. They are advertising ONLINE SPECIALS...don't you believe it. Go to the store and take a look like I did. I found the same prices online and the same prices in the store. Don't let the Home Depot make you crazy with this. I will be reporting this to the Consumer Affairs division of local gov't.
