Separate but equal? ~ #MondayBlogs

What about family?  Family time - family togetherness - simply FAMILY.
Cable companies hawk subscriber packages that permit you to watch different channels (or even the same) on different TVs throughout your home. One fairly recent commercial mocks peace talks and by the end of the ad shows two adolescents watching television programs in two different but neighboring rooms; mom is ecstatic that there are no more quarrels between brother and sister over which program to watc...

Tolerance, Bigotry and the FaceBook Friend Button ~ #MondayBlogs

Our parents tried to teach us to lead confrontation-free lives with the cautionary advice “Never discuss politics or religion.” But did we listen… of course not. And with the advent of social media networks it has become easier than ever to give ourselves voice about anything and everything.
Does anyone really change the way someone votes in the next election? I’m sure that we can all play a part in spreading rumors and political mudslinging, but does it really have an effect where it actually...

Traditions ~ #MondayBlogs

Just hearing the word Tradition makes me see and hear Tevye and the Fiddler on the Roof song of the same name.


So what is tradition? “A tradition is a belief or behavior passed down within a group orsociety with symbolic meaning or special significance with origins in the past…The English word "tradition"comes from the Latin traditio, the noun from the verb traderere or tradere (totransmit, to hand over, to give for safekeeping).” 
We automatically assume that traditions are based in relig...

New additions to the dictionary ~ #MondayBlogs

Imagine being an ESL (English as a second language) student nowadays. You think you’ve learned the English language and you’re feeling really proud. That’s when someone complains to you about their textpectation (anticipation of receiving a TEXT message); you hear others laughing about being photobombed (having an unexpected guest appear in a photo); and when you look puzzled, some stranger tells you to stop acting like a derp (to express actual or feigned ignorance or stupidity).
What languag...

#MondayBlogs ~ This Memorial Day

My dad and my father-in-law both served proudly in World War 2, both men were injured and lived with pain and other war-related complications and I remain convinced that this led to an early demise for both (58 yrs & 55 yrs respectively) – BUT THEY CAME HOME. Aside from the fact that neither my husband nor I would be here if they hadn’t, our families were immeasurably fortunate. But how I do miss hearing their “War Stories”, even the ones I heard over and over and sometimes a little more...
