WHAT IS WRITTEN MUST BE LEFT AS THE WRITER ENTENDED

You will find a link on my wall that a friend sent me last night. As someone who has written a couple books that I have not even tried to publish yet. The reason I have not tried to have them published is not because I am worried they will be turned down. It is because I have seen way too many stories and books changed from the author original intended. I think it is not just a shame , but it should also be a crime to change any character in any written story to another sex,color,nationality,or alien species. These stories were written the way they were, because the person writing the story wanted them to be as they are. Had they wished the male white lead in a story to be a female African American, they would have written it as such at the time of the works conception.
I will admit there are the occasional change that may work, as I have seen one such change that if I had not seen the original as it was written, I would have thought it was a good movie. The thing is so very often changes in characters are made not because it is necessary to the story. They are made to try to please some social, or ethnic faction that instead of writhing their own stories with any characters they please. They would rather take something that was written well years ago and gut it into something to pacify the people whining about the main character being male, or white or both. As the link I put on my wall says these actions DO NOT add anything to the franchise, it only destroys the original creates work.
I am about to make an analogy that I am sure many will not like, but it is still valid. When you take another artists work (it does not matter if it is written or made into a film, and change it) , it is as if you are saying their work does not matter. HERE IS THE PART PEOPLE ARE NOT GOING TO LIKE: If it were in your power, would any of you look at the world and say wow God made a mistake casting Adam as the lead in his story of creation. Lets make Eve the lead? I know you are going to say we are not talking about God here, but in a way the writer of a story that has never been told before ESPECIALLY IF IT IS SCIENCE FICTION is the creator of the world written inside his book, or play, or movie, so the comparison is valid on that level.
I just wonder how many of these people that think it is a good idea to change the sex, sexual orientation, or color of an established character would like it if they wrote something and someone came along and flipped EVERYTHING in it backward from the way they wanted it to be. Why is it so hard for this modern entertainment world to understand the old stuff should remain the same and new things with new stories NOT RELATED TO THE OLD STUFF with new characters should be written from scratch. You want a strong woman lead GREAT go write a story for her, DO NOT STEAL someone else's character and twist it into something the fans do not want to see anymore.
I do not see any point in ruining another writers composition. Could it be these people doing this know they are not as creative as the writers of days gone by? Could it be this modern video game world has caused would be writers to lose their creativity? Is that why some would rather try to change a character that has done well for decades into someone no one cares about anymore? Kind of a jealousy thing. Well I have probably said more then anyone wants to hear now. Just watch the link on my wall.🙂 The guy that did that had it right.


?? What the heck is going on in the United States ? Yes, I am speaking directly about Minnasota.

💋 Hi to all players who might read this. I do not blog on or off here (meaning anywhere) . I feel the need to do this blog due to what is happening in the United States. Back to Minnesota. Please know that my heart / our hearts weigh very heavy. This troubles me for months. It affects all of US i am sure.

I want to say sorry to all Americans for what is going down in your Country!!! Here we go again, little over a year that has passed, (since G.Floyd's death) and the POLICE OFFICER KILLINGS has hit you all hard for a second time.!!!!!


WTF is going on in the United States Police Departments??? It sure isn't the BLACK, PINK, YELLOW, BROWN loving, caring, NORMAL, everyday people that are being killed for doing wrong is it?. Ooh Wait... there is no damn reason to take the life of another period. I wanted to do this post because I am a Mommy of four mixed children aged 13.6 years 10 years. 7years and then my little one 3+ years. I showed you all of them together above, since most photos are either two or one or three being in it. This photo i nailed it :) with all four of them.!!! lol it was Christmas morning is why i round them all up and was able to get one done. ( it is really a chore getting them all together for a photo, they aren't interested.) haha One is on the iPad or DS. celll, laptops, computers + (desktops)... its all about tic-talk?? Fort - Knight.. Peppa Pig, ugh lol.... so on. Immaterial to why I chose to do this Blog.


I fear for my Children (basically i fear for all of color aside, from being white it appears to prove accuracy). What is the future for them going to be like if Police stop acting as if they are ABOVE the LAW? Being scared of Cops? I do not allow my 13..almost 14 year old to watch BAD news about both incidents that has happened. Why possibly give children of color a complex? or even worse bother them into a medical diagnosis? (SCHIZOPHRENIA)? ... this is warranted in the young mixed and non mixed Children. I will sit them down and explain too them in a way that will hopefully not fear them for their future. Teach them how to deal in situations and i am speaking about all situations that could arise. But this isn't guaranteed either. We can only do our very best for hopefully every one.

As i did say I do not blog. I read them all and comment on what i feel a need to. So i will finish mine off with this. I am so sorry to the State of Minnesota, my heart bleeds for you all as well as these poor Families that have to live it for the Rest of their Lives.

Retrain ,. FIRE, put more Supervisors, Lieutenants and etc out on the streets , the ones that CARE about those in their State and everywhere else. Your not ABOVE THE LAW, never will be so best to retrain then yourselves since i believe that the System is not going to take such procedures to make things right. This is sickening what has happened. So i end it with this since yes i am getting angry thinking about the unnecessary KILLINGS that has happened in just over a year. Most of all who can get over this last KILLING? 26 years she HAD on the force and does this?? SHE IS FULL OF SHIT when she states she pulled out the wrong device. You can see she is right handed (she fired with the right) The gun (which shows) is on her right side hip. The stun gun is on the left . If you did not notice this i recommend that you take the time out to pull it up on YouTube and watch it closely) .. 26 years and you pull out a GUN in error to a TASER GUN?? It is not possible. So I end now with this, HAVE A NICE LIFE IN JAIL FOR YOUR REMAINING DAYS OF YOUR LIFE, AS FOR FLOYD'S CASE... IT IS A SHAME THAT YOUR STATE DOES NOT OFFER THE DEATH PENALTY. Derek whom is pleading the 5th TODAY and will not take the stand knows for fact his killing of G.Floyd was in my opinion not planned perhaps but for he knowledge what was happening. " I CAN'T BREATHE" ... funny thing is... and sadly both victims just about worded out LOUDLY the exact same thing. HELLO?? OFFICERS.

I am Canada, I am no way comparing since this happens no doubt globally. We really do not have any of this in Canada, we truly don't! Maybe this is why it is so darn troubling to many and myself. You just do not hear anything about these actions with the Police.. What is the difference in the Training of your Officers and other Officers? or is it solely their personalities?( their hearts are in the right place along with their training) Or i don't really care anymore because i have 26 years in Law and i am finished SOON (retired)... so they don't give two Shits? Who knows.. all i know is i want to say I am so sorry to the People of Minnesota and to the rest of the United States. My heart is huge and I pray and care about every single one of you.


Lets protect our CHILDREN and any other that has Color. It is NOT SUPPOSE TO BE LIKE THIS PERIOD. WE ALL BLEED RED..... Something has to give in the U.S of America... I am so not even going to bring up another HATE ISSUE with the Capital. I will say this though about it... THERE WERE OFF DUTY POLICE OFFICERS, RETIRED AND DAY OFF that cited this awful scene. Ever think just how many the United States could of lost on that day? (aside from those that were killed prior from being shot) Let us ALL come together and do the POLICES JOB in the Service and Protection department because the Badges on these Police Officers just do not get it.! I wish you all the very best and have a nice relaxing day. Stay safe ........... when i say this it is not just a Coronavirus case... add KILLING POLICE OFFICERS to the list too.

Stay Proud, Stay cool.

Redshuriken. (my sons account not mine, i play on his. I do not have one nor do I need one since i play on his. Plus it's I who is making all the winnings lol. OK most the time.)


P.s. if any errors, typos please excuse them since I did not proof read . I forgot to do this lol. Bye for now. Also... PLAN FOR short and HOPE for LONG.

She knows she’s not like the others, she can’t just move on from heartbreak.Her walls are higher than theirs because she’s different in how deeply and fiercely she loves.She’s not passive, soft or weak in the love she gives.You’ll never mistake her heart for a candle in the wind, she’s a roaring wildflower.Her love is something most men can’t handle - deep, soulful and passionate, she’s the person that pours her everything into her love..Which is why she suffers so much when her heart is broken,Why it utterly devastates her depths when love’s hope dwindles away.She’d rather tackle her life with reckless abandon and fierce passion than to just survive.If she gave all of herself into love and still she failed, she’d do it all over again-as often as she could.She wasn’t afraid of being hurt in search of love..she feared never giving love everything..To waste her life never having lived, loved and pursued the desires of her heart fearlessly.She knew there was no reward without risk, and to her, love would always be the greatest reward and feeling there ever was.She’d rather be burned alive by the fire of her passionate love than to wither away in the loveless void of never having loved at all.Truthfully, the others would say she was broken in the most desperate way possible, but that’s just because they didn’t understand her ..And they didn’t have to.She was quite content with who she was and her choices, for she lived without apologies or regrets.What they called broken, she knew was beautiful instead.All the little cracks of the pain she had faced had created the beauty of who she was..For that was how the light got in.Her old soul was deep and yearned for the fire of love that she longed to find..But she never sacrificed who she was to make anyone else happy..She knew, deep down in places that she didn’t speak of , that her impassioned love was a rare and beautiful thing..She’d always guard her heart fiercely behind the walls that protected her, but she wasn’t afraid to risk it all to chase the love she kens she deserved.Yes, she was broken, she was beautiful and most of all,She was free to choose her own path.She’d throw herself into the fires of love time and again to find her true love..Regardless of the outcome, which was often heartbreak.That’s just who she was, and she owned it-Every flaw, imperfection and failures.But that’s why she was what the others never would be:Broken, beautiful and strong..And always free to pursue the fire of her heart


WHY LIE ?

I do not understand why people lie. The truth always comes out sooner or later. I was on skype with some friends today and I heard one of them straight up lie on me to someone else in his house. Most people when they lie on you will go to great lengths to make sure you do not hear them lie on you. I do not know if he thought because they were away from the mic I would not hear it. Like I tell everyone: DON'T LIE TO ME , AND DON'T LIE ON ME AND WE GOT NO PROBLEMS, but if you lie on to or on me we got a BIG PROBLEM.
What makes it worse is I was trying to help him with something he had asked me to help with, and he said I offered. BIG LIE! I would not have even know he wanted help with it had he not rung me on skype to ask for help. After I told him what would happen if he ever lied on me again, apparently he let the other person know he had lied on me. BUT THAT DOES NOT ERASE THE LIE. Why lie what is the point the truth is bound to be reveled in the end, and a lie could just end a friendship.


How jealousy can destroy a relationship?

The foundation of any healthy and happy relationship is trust and respect. A person struggling with jealousy is unable to trust the person they are with or show respect for them as an individual or their boundaries. Overtime this behavior will destroy the feelings of love and affection that once existed.

Sharing is Caring

The old man unwraps the plain hamburger and carefully cuts it in half. He places one half in front of his wife. He then carefully counts out the fries, dividing them into two piles and neatly placing one pile in front of his wife.
He takes a sip of the drink, his wife takes a sip and then sets the cup down between them. As he begins to eat his few bites of hamburger, the people around them keep looking over and whispering That poor old couple - all they can afford is one meal for the two of them. As the man begins to eat his fries a young man comes to the table. He politely offers to buy another meal for the old couple. The old man replies that they`re just fine - they`re just used to sharing everything. The surrounding people noticed the little old lady hadn`t eaten a bite. She sits there watching her husband eat and occasionally taking turns sipping the drink. Again the young man comes over and begs them to let him buy another meal for them. This time the old woman says No, thank you, we are used to sharing everything. As the old man finishes and was wipes his face neatly with the napkin, the young man again comes over to the little old lady who had yet to eat a single bite of food and asks May I ask what is it you are waiting for? The old woman answers... THE TEETH.....


ARE THINGS FINALLY CHANGING ?

I saw a story on yahoo today that makes me wonder if things are finally changing. It was well written and really the way I like to see news reported, although I can not help but wonder are things finally changing for the better, of was this handled this way solely because of the people it was about? It was about a murder suicide where it reported that EX-NFL player Phillip Adams killed 5, then himself. Dr. Robert Lesslie, 70, and his wife, Barbara Lesslie, 69, and two grandchildren Adah Lesslie, 9, and Noah Lesslie, 5, were pronounced dead.
This is a honorably. It is possible that Adams may have had a reason behind killing the doctor and or his wife. I just found it really interesting Adams is African American, and the doctor and his family were not. So I just wonder if the colors had been reversed, and the killer was white and the family killed were not if the headline would have been something like EX-NFL player kills black doctor and his family?
I reallllllllllllllllllllllly hope the way this articular was actually written is a sign of things in journalism changing for the better and not just another example of the media sugar coating things put of fear of being accused of being predigest. Lets hope it is the media starting to wake up to the fact that the only time someone's color really matters in a news articular is IF there is a man hunt going on. At that time and only that time color would play a factor, because if you say you are looking for a specific race or color in connection with a crime, you can eliminate everyone who does not have the same race or color. Other then that color should not matter, so even thought it told of a tragic event it was done well and for once fairly. I hope it was not just a one time thing.

I'M STILL HERE

denverc

My looks are nothing special,
My face reveals my age,
My body shows some wear and tear,
And my energy's not the same.

Too often my memory fails me,
And I lose things all the time.
One minute I know what I plan to do,
And the next it may just slip my mind.

I try hard to avoid my mirror.
There are things I would rather not see,
And even those times when I just catch a glimpse,
I can no longer recognize me.

The things I used to do with ease
Can now cause aches and pains,
And the quality of the things I do
Will never be quite the same.

I always compare my older self
To those younger versions of me,
And I know I'm wasting too much time
Missing who I used to be.

But the thing that really makes me sad
Is despite what people see,
Underneath my tattered, worn out shell,
I'm still the same old me.

My heart can still feel endless love,
And at times it still can ache.
My heart can fill with so much joy,
And then it can suddenly break.

My soul can still feel sympathy
And longs for forgiveness and peace,
And there are times its light shines boldly through,
And times when it longs for release.

It's true, maybe now that I'm older,
Feeling lonely may be status quo,
But it also has made me more willing
To forgive and let past conflicts go.

So maybe to some I look ugly and old,
A person who barely exists.
I'm still quite aware of the beauty inside,
And my value should not be dismissed.

So although not as strong and no beauty, it's true,
I'm still here and want so much to live,
And I know that there's no one in this world quite like me,
And no one who has more to give.
