“Life's but a walking shadow; a poor player, that struts and frets his hour upon the stage, and then is heard no more: it is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing"
Songwriter Commentator
"The pioneers get all the arrows"
My first calling was as a musician and songwriter...I was fortunate enough to have a good run...Some songs from a friend of mine you never heard but might like...

Friend of mine once told me this lyric should be stitched on a pillow:
"I believe that life is for living and love is the axis on which we turn
We bare our souls till all is forgiven
and clothe ourselves with the lessons learned"

A favorite quote from a favorite author:
“A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.”
― Robert A. Heinlein
...and one I saw on a studio wall in Nashville:
“Never attempt to teach a pig to sing; it wastes your time and annoys the pig.”
― Robert Heinlein, Time Enough for Love
OK...one more...
“A dying culture invariably exhibits personal rudeness. Bad manners. Lack of consideration for others in minor matters. A loss of politeness, of gentle manners, is more significant than is a riot.”
― Robert A. Heinlein, Friday

a donkey from the rear and an idiot from any side" Ionian Islands proverb.
Expat living in Spain 🇪🇸. My world would have been much better if I could live in a country with 8% income tax, no social security, no state curriculum on education, culturally homogenous society with real motivation for voluntary philanthropy, gold standard, reliable banking system, safe neighborhoods, the majority of functionaries being replaced by a simple app, an army that could constantly train you in arms, tactics and how to be a man among men.
This world isn't quite as real as you imagined. Think about it, the esoteric is more tangible than any artificial construct you assumed had solidity and meaning.

"Shepherd" is the title I use as an ordained minister. I founded C.M. Ministry as an extension of my work to support Veterans and their families that are having difficulty. As a Service Connected Disabled Veteran myself, I can work with others without judging them. The families of Veterans also need support as few of them understand what the Veteran is going through. Our ministry has expanded to include First Responders (Police, Fire, Paramedics, ER personnel) as in many areas, it is the same as a war zone with the way people treat each other in crime areas across this country.
As a life member of the American Legion, I show a lot of their events to help our Veterans, Community, State and Nation. I am also a life member of DAV, although not as active with that great organization.
If you would like to support our ministry, we created a company to help fund us. Take a look and see if there is anything on the site that may interest you. We have a variety of areas to look into.
