"Live Your Truth Openly"
G. Cammermeyer
It Will Set You Free
Living your truth becomes more challenging when you add openly. Living a hidden life believing no one knows who you are is delusional and tragic. It denies you and others the opportunity to know the real you and share your life. It also undermines any relationship since you don’t trust them enough to share your truth. Is that real friendship?
Colonel Edward Ryan, age 85, died 1 June 2024. In his self-written obit he regrets not having the courage to come out as gay because he was afraid of being ostracized by family friends and co workers. He writes: “I was gay all my life”… had 25 years together with the love of my life…”
Live you truth openly. It will set you free.

Points to Ponder
A Female President:
Kamala Harris will be the next Democratic nominee for President of the United States. She will become the first female President of the United States when we all vote. She has lived our life experiences and understands what it means to be in the minority and without a voice. Not only will she be our collective voice and will guide us on a path toward civility and decency once again. WE CAN MAKE IT HAPPEN WHEN WE VOTE.
Loss of personal autonomy or new control?
Who could have imagined that as women we no longer control our body. Perhaps the best solution is to prohibit intrusion by the sperm. The new birth control: Celibacy.
A Near Miss that wasn’t.
A potential assassin missed his target but killed another in his wake of terror. Indeed it was a lapse in protection by secret service. The question is unanswered. Why is there still no outrage that an AR 15 was in the hands of a civilian? Should a weapon of war not be reserved for those in combat?
