I’ve been trying not to write about global
events in my journal, but there’s a lot going on in the world; and the
thirteenth anniversary of 9/11 has had a lot of people worried about terrorism.
Instead of getting into a political
commentary that would surely get a lot of people mad if I actually wrote about
my thoughts on current ‘western’ international policies; I’ll instead made a
few points that relate to us locally.
The first, obvious fact about our little town is that it is not going to
be on the top ten hit list for the Islamic State or any other terrorists. If, by some wild twist of fate, a terrorist
got lost and ended up in Witch Falls, should he or she decide to try anything;
I’m fairly sure that the Magi in town – including four Magi Masters – can
handle anything they try to throw at us.
So much of what I read during my nightly computer checks only proves
that the terrorists behind 9/11 and other attacks have accomplished their goals
– probably beyond their wildest dreams.
For the Magi of the Light reading this in
my future, if the Ascension of the Light hasn’t happened yet, it is coming; so
don’t waste time being afraid. The good
guys are going to win – and it won’t happen through the use of the air, sea, or
land power of the armies of the world.
They’re all part of the problem; not the solution. If you doubt me, you are reading this in my
future – how well are things working out so far in Iraq, Syria, Israel, Egypt,
Libya, Ukraine, and the dozens of other problem spots around the world from my
today? I’ll be happy to apologize if the
Ascension of the Light hasn’t happened by whenever you’re reading this; and the
world has somehow managed to find universal peace and harmony.
Okay, let’s move on to the daily life part
of the update before I change my mind and go on that little diatribe that’s
just bubbling up inside of me right now.
Tai Chi by the river this morning was
positively chilly by comparison; and I’d really like our summer back now,
thank-you very much. If the forecast
ends up being accurate for tomorrow; I’ll be wishing that even more by game
time. We could have rain and
temperatures as low as the upper-forties.
Vanessa and Nora may be thanking Rowen and me by next week if we don’t
start getting any nice-weather game days.
It was sunny today, but definitely felt
more like fall than summer. Dani had us
do our lunchtime cheerleading workout outdoors; but I didn’t really spend much
more time outside because Rowen and I did our homework at the computer store
after school while the boys were busy; and then Michael and I were at the Inn
for dinner and game night. I helped out
in the kitchen while Michael needed to do his homework; we had dinner together
along with Rebecca; and then Michael and I won the junior championship tonight.
I went home with Mom, Dad, and the twins
right after the gaming was over; and have pretty much been busy since
then. Mom did my Magi lesson first
because Ethan and Ehlana wanted to do some work on their college courses before
going to bed. I took care of getting
them tucked in for the night while Mom and Dad both kept working in the office;
and I’ve spent the last three and a half hours working on my computer while cuddling
in bed with Mandy.
It’s going on two-thirty now, and we’re
going to have a long day including the travel time to Meadowvale and back for
the game; so I’ll just wrap this up now and be grateful for the extra half-hour
or so of downtime.
May the Magi Force be with you!
P.S. There really are serious dangers in
the world, and I know that personally on a level that no ‘normal’ people would
even believe; but I’d also like to point out that there were no terrorist
attacks in Witch Falls today – or anywhere in America, Europe, or any of the
‘power’ countries of the world. All of
that fear and worry time could have been put to much better use – not to
mention all of the money and resources being devoted to ‘keeping us safe’.

Sorry – a bit of that diatribe apparently
escaped anyway!
