Life is what happened to you while your busy making other plans
you don't know what you have till its gone
who said life was fair.
better late than never
what gives you the right
who died and left you boss
when you least expect it expect it
Happiness is what you make of it
Beauty is within
Its not over till the fat lady sings
If I only had a retrospectoscope
If I only had a brain.".
More about James:"I have very strong ethical values and have become dissapointed in the way other professionals in my field as well as Lawyers,Judges,and Veterinarians have managed to make money their top priority.
WHY Because they can.
I am a true Libra. I can not stand to see someone being hurt,bullied, and taken advantage of by someone who should no better.
I follow the motto do unto others as you would have do unto you.
I believe that animals and children are innocent and should always be protected and cared for. The sick and the elderly are our past ,we are the present and our children our immortality and the future.
I take on challenges and never quit. I do what is right and if I don't know what to do I do nothing. In medicine I live by the motto. DO NO HARM.
I do not worship money, and I am no longer financially rich. But I don't loose sleep thinking that I did the wrong thing for money.
I believe that what GOD gave us a piece of heaven, he gave us the cerebral cortex, and the ability to create. Its within all of us. However he also gave us the power to destroy, This is not the way of being godly. Its easier to destroy, its hard to preserve, and its magic to create.
Everyday I try to learn 1 thing.
Everyday I ask god w...Expand for more
hat why when and then say OK I know I m going.
I love to save things, animals,people and even what some people would call junk.
I write music from within and sing from my heart. I do this for me, but i love the attention.
I can do what ever I put my mind too given enough time.
I really believe that in this day and age it is hard to just trust someone that you just met.
I don't! they have to earn trust. Just like respect, you cant demand it you have to earn it. You also have to maintain it.
I still can make 99 percent of the people I meet smile and laugh.
I am hoping to get through this unexpected painful period of my life without changing to much. I am getting a divorce. This is insane way to live and or treat each other after 30 years together. Its irrational and nobody wins. Its another example that you can always find a way to destroy.
I am bored of the way things are and find it harder and harder to get through each day.
I know that people don't get married to get divorced, but if you read my notes u all ready know that.
One things for sure and I hope that it never changes, I love to live. I cant understand and I get confused how anyone could take their own lives over anything, especially money. So I fight on. I am a product of my generation the 70s and will never be fooled by the very wealthy into thinking that they would ever want to help anyone outside of themselves.
We have to stick together. Listen to the Beatles,and Jim Croce, harry chapin,etc. The Beatles most of all spoke of Love and peace.
The population problem food shortages job crisis is all very obvious to me. ( and the Chinese)
Its common sense. It two people have two jobs/careers and they have two children then the balance remains. However its not that way. If you have 3 children or more than where are they getting there jobs from you only made space for two.. There was a time when that dream of many children and white picket fences is not reality.
I am a self made man . I have learned to love me,and also not always like what I have to do.
But I am a Libra and love beauty,grace,charm,and talent.
