Sitting here with a Padron, kraken, ginger beer and my thoughts.
I haven't been in the christmas spirit in a long time. Well at the level of commercialized rhetoric, not at all.
christmas has had meaning for me most on two types of occasions.
First one.
The last christmas with Chocolate Doll. We came down here to Wilmington to spend time with the parental units and their daughter. They were glad to see us, but I wasn't feeling being bothered. But I had Chocolate Doll so that was all that mattered.
Then the forecast came up for snow here at the beach. I had no desire to be stuck here with the parental units so we rolled out and went home. But everyone loved the gifts she picked out for them and personalized. Her smile was infectious as always. Got back to enjoy Christmas the Titan's way at home. And then the snow came down and I went out in it early to enjoy it.
Secondly.
Growing up on airbases while having your father be in the SP's brought about a different life. But when it came to holidays and especially christmas there were guys that had to stand post all night. Add to that the deployment of everyone to the desert shield operation during christmas also and I am honored to have been able to serve everyone that was there or came through. To give them movies, coffee, food and desserts. To brighten, support or ease their mind a little bit. This had the true meaning of christmas to me.
So today as I get my scrooge on and just chill. I look back and I am thankful for My Life Unscripted adventures in the christmas agenda.
Right now I am just ready for the season ending episode of the Mandalorian.
Enjoy your christmas

Poetry: The Accosted Man
The
Accosted Man
attacks
remain constant
more
intimate assaults
than
enemies
they
remain unable to
accept
understand
me
so
many attempts to
turn
and twist
change
me
for
their comfort zone needs
when
you stand your ground
know
yourself
end
up labeled
difficult
toxic
mysoginist
and
much more
words
and phrase
of
fad laced
exposed
inadequacies
I
hear their screams
tantrums
self
defications
for I
am the anti everything
I
think
know
myself
stand
strong in my resolve
have
no desire to play the game
still
the
accusations remain
as I
laugh and quote Redma
I’ll
bee dat!
Standing
here girded
as I
watch all the arrows falling towards me
I
guess I will be fighting in the
shade
