Weird thing the universe…




That past year has been bloody hard. It’s been all about endings, stopping, starting, fighting, standing up for honour and another’s reputation regardless of personal cost – and it’s been about Karma. I’ve found every time I inch forward I’ve been shunted hard backwards or slammed to a stop and directed on another path to blunder along with no map to follow. Jobs have fallen through but then I’ve been so busy fighting for someone else that I realize I wouldn’t have had time to work at a job. Information has dropped into my lap just when I thought my research had run dry. Lies and half truths have been put forward and the universe has shoved them into my face to investigate and realize the fabrications put before me can be defeated and that I will win for the right reasons.

I don’t mind dealing with Karma. I understand the universe – but I swear, once all this is over I just want a couple of weeks without drama. Do you hear me universe? And Karma? Love ya, but back off.

Swear? Absolutely….



I had to sign an affidavit as part of my job. It’s not an unusual occurrence. It’s actually a pain in the bum as you have to find an official person to witness your signature. Anyhow, the person I found to co-sign held out a bible to me to swear on before I signed. I said no thanks. While I respect people’s rights to believe in whatever they want, as an atheist I find it hypocritical to swear on a bible. How believable would that be? So I declined. They were stunned and unsure how to proceed. The thing is religion and truth are not necessarily the same thing are they? Look at all those children who were molested by clergy. How honest and truthful is that?

Truth? It comes from within and no printed book is going to scare me into being honest. In this day and age surely the concept of such old fashioned swearing on a bible infringers on people’s rights and civil liberties.
