Wow long time no write...

Let’s be honest if you have read of my latest adventures in Legacy of the Force you know what has been going on in my life and my family life. It's like the rebellion all over again and I feel 40 years younger. I sometimes forget what it is like to be in the trenches being an admiral and having to handle all the responsibilities that that entails.

But enough of that though.... in all seriousness though unless you’re a complete imbecile you know that this is only a real person online persona that I like to use to write about anything and everything I want to.

I’ll say this much I live in Northeast Ohio and I love it. Everything from the culture to the restaurants to the sports teams and the great rivalry that, that entails. Browns vs Steelers, well let’s face it that should really be stated Cleveland vs Pittsburgh. I mean that’s the big football rivalry but that about the only sport we come in direct contact with that I am aware of. I mean Pittsburgh’s baseball team as of late is entirely laughable not that the great Cleveland Indians are doing so hot but at least it does not take 8 pitchers to finish a game. But I do have to give credit where credit is due and then do have the Penns. My hat is off to them after winning the Stanley Cup. However to be clear I am not a big sports aficionado. I love my Cleveland Teams and get hurt ever year by the Tribe and the browns. I occasionally make it to a Monsters hockey game and like the fact that we have a couple minor league teams in the area that offer a great time with great ball parks including the Akron Aeros.

So I guess this post is too taut they greatness that NEO! I mean less face it with in an hour or two you can be in farm country and beautiful country side that is green and lush in the spring and beautiful and colorful in the fall. We have our share of snow in the winter but not so much that you truly have to hibernate to be safe. And we have our fair share of hot summers and by hot I mean humid! I can deal with spring, fall, and winter but I am desperate for AC in the summer when the temperature and humidity rise. I have learned to appreciate the changing season and learned to cope with the changing season. By cope, I mean the general depression that tends to come from the lack of daylight which in turn affects the serotonin in the brain. I have found to understand when my body or mind starts feeling the change and I already take medication to help cope also. Nevertheless you can take all the medication you want but if you do not know how accept life on life’s terms you are going to continue to be frustrated and unhappy.

With that I feel an end coming to this overdo post and I will give you something I found years ago in the third edition on page 449 or now found on page 417 in the 4th edition:

And acceptance is the answer to all my problems today. When I am disturbed, it is because I find some person, place, thing, or situation—some fact of my life —unacceptable to me, and I can find no serenity until I accept that person, place, thing, or situation as being exactly the way it is supposed to be at this moment. Nothing, absolutely nothing, happens in God’s world by mistake.

Acceptance says it all for me in coping with the change of the weather or just if someone annoys me. Now if I could only apply this to when I am driving, I may not come as close as I may have, getting into accidents! ;-)

I also have to say I dedicate this post to the pretty girl I met at the coffee shop the other day as she was nice enough to watch my stuff while I ran across the street to purchase something. Apon my return we proceeded to have a very fascinating conversation on slavery and religion and just her adventure in life and where she has been. I guess she got my brain thinking and brought me to writing a post. So thank you to the Silly Little Girl aka Kagu - Goddess, Princess, Kaguya, and Kagu-chan, my new acquaintance and possible future friend.
