What bugs me about democrats and republicans is neither really cares about the constitution anymore. Both are guilty. There is a process when you want to add or subtract something from the constitution and so yes, the constitution is a living document, but not at the whim of some oligarchy. It’s called an amendment. Want to make abortion legal and deprive unborn children or the right to live, pass an amendment. Do you want to take money from some and give to others, pass and amendment. Stop having the oligarchy look into the “penumbra” of the constitution to do things that are clearly not spelled out in the constitution. Want to get rid of guns – amendment. The current circus is to pass laws or issue edicts under supposed powers and see what the supreme court feels like and damn the people. Who cares about lip service of protecting our republic or democracy when both parties only serve the oligarchy. The fact that neither party harps on this process tells you how broken things are – Let alone the political persecutions currently taking place. At this rate, we’ll be lucky to have country still intact in 10-15 years. It should be enough to make anyone wonder…

I am a dreamer, as in, I often dream and will wake up and remember the dreams. Sometimes my dreams are fantastical, sometimes they are scary, sometimes they are mundane. But I often wonder about why we dream. Do they mean anything? Are they a glimpse into our id? Or… are they a glimpse into the multiverse?

The multiverse theory goes that there are infinite universes and infinite versions of you. In the multiverse, every possibility does happen somewhere. And the theory with dreams is that dreams connect the conscious of other versions of you and allow you to essentially view other versions of your life.

I Should be dead. According to many doctors, I’m over my expiration date by a couple of years. Here are a few thoughts about death that I haven’t read anywhere and keep thinking about.

Think about how you want to be found when you die.

Any of us can go at any second. I thought cancer was going to kill me like the doctors said. They said I had months to live (even though it didn’t feel that way). The cancer treatments were tough but doable. But then a known side effect led me to seek additional medical help. Hours later I was pretty much dead. It can happen fast, even when you think you’re going to have a slow death from cancer. Other ways can be even faster, like a car accident or even something small like a slip-and-fall. For instance, a friend of a friend who was fit and young, one Sunday morning went into the hospital with leg pain. It turned out she had an infection in her leg that had already turned into sepsis and she passed away only hours after being admitted. The point is – death isn’t something you usually plan.

Take a second and walk through your life as if you were somebody else and you’ve passed on. What do you find? How organized are you? What would you want your family to find? This includes a lot of things, like are your pictures organized AND accessible? Are passwords for computers, phones, banking, etc. somewhere that someone you trust can access? Is a will set up?
