Dear Friends,

All of us know the American people are divided in its appreciation and pursuit of liberty within its own borders. The continued emasculation of free speech among universities and elements of America's culture, has harmed a rational and honest approach in following the wisest course of understanding in regards to the current maelstrom of dissension.

I thank God I am not a politician or involved in any position within the government establishment, the main street media, entertainment or in higher education. I can only provide a humble opinion enforced by the numerous experiences I've encountered throughout my entire life of 61 years. I can plainly say that I've had my ups and downs and persevered when pain and suffering knocked at my door. All of us go through times like this, but joy and peace of mind does visit our lives, when all aspects or fragments of our character are discovered by those seeking a similar path.

Many Americans have taken freedom for granted. A percentage of the population lacks a comprehension of American history - as a basic course in Civics 101 was never a requisite in either an elementary or a high school curriculum. Moreover, the circumstances which created a democratic republic with Judeo-Christian values embraced in the Declaration of Independence and the formation of the US Constitution, are misunderstood by an unorthodox powerful minority.

These entities are interpreting the sacrosanct documents as an affront to civil liberties in the modern age.

Last year's Presidential campaign divulged a tremendous amount of undisclosed and classified information. It revealed deception and methods of corruption of a political party, an 'established' clandestine government operation, and the press - in bias attempts to 'control' the American electorate in its selection of a Chief Executive. These activities was never construed to implement a procedure to define or to raise the awareness of democratic principles in 1776, when America declared its independence from Great Britain, nor in 2016. The discoveries of the past 8 + years has uncovered the rise of unconstitutional strategies to destroy the personal sovereignties of American citizens. The behavior of government diplomats and its bureaucracy, has created a lack of trust in public institutions and has revealed the true intentions of the 'establishment'. The American people elected the Republican nominee to end this deception, and to resurrect the true discerning values of freedom that established this country.from its inception.

I strongly suggest every American sit down and read the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution, in order to intelligently enter any debate in which the Rights of the individual are questioned.

We as a people, are entering a world where distinct opposing values are creating deep and profound conflicts. The ramifications are being felt throughout the country, as the disdain and the disrespect for law and order has garnered acceptance as a weapon for the dissolution of American independence. The rise of boycotts in the general marketplace has energized a substantial population of America. This method of dissent is the latest instrument in forecasting discontent. The execution of this procedure has affected the financial growth of various industries.

In an upcoming post, I will explore the rejection of business entities by a 'forgotten' and misconstrued segment of American society.

Thanks again for your continuous support.

THE GOLDEN RULE

September 20th, 2017 4:01 PM

Dear Friends,

In a world where our lives can become a never ending challenge in facing the vestiges of wicked intent in our environment, there are circumstances that have provided a rebuke to those concerns.

During the past several weeks, I've encountered situations in which I've rejoiced at the demeanor and the glorious outflow of respect others have shown to total strangers and myself included. While this behavior can be construed as a rare occurrence in Los Angeles, I am animated at the prospect that I must possess or be surrounded by an aura in which good graces abound!

The other day I was in line at the Post Office. There was only one cashier and there were 4 customers before me and 3 customers behind me. There was a middle aged woman that purchased stamps and requested assistance in sending a package. The transaction was completed and she left. About 5 minutes later, the woman came back and advised the cashier that she overpaid when her change was given. Everyone in line overheard this conversation and were amazed that honesty still exists! All of us at the Post Office were excited to know we were witnesses to an occurrence in which the truth was truly comforting to absorb. We were truly delighted, as we opened up by mentioning our past activities when 'The Golden Rule' was a major force in our experiences.

Another situation occurred when I had to take my car to the shop, as there were electrical problems. The blinkers were not working along with the air conditioning. A month

earlier the car was repaired. When the same problem happened again, I decided to go back and see if the mechanic could pinpoint the difficulty in the electrical system. I went to the shop early Saturday morning without an appointment. The shop's owner mentioned it would take time to solve the problem. That was fine as I suggested I can have breakfast at a diner across the street. About an hour and a half later, I learned the trouble with the electrical system was resolved - and I did not have to pay for the repairs! I was truly excited as I was imagining paying a small fortune or being advised the car could not be fixed.

My last example happened a few weeks ago. As I was leaving the grocery store I walked to the parking lot. For some reason I do not know why, I smiled at a woman parked next to my car. She looked at me, smiled, and said 'you have the most beautiful smile'! I was thrilled at the compliment and wished her the best! During this experience, I must have utilized my 'smile therapy' where I invoke my presence on others, even though the world might be crashing before my very eyes!

Thanks again for your continuous support.

THE STORM

September 11th, 2017 7:52 AM

Dear Friends,
The Southern region of America has suffered greatly from mighty onslaughts of hurricanes in Texas and Florida. Hurricanes Harvey and Irma have devastated both states with ferocious winds, voluminous rainfall and flooding. This natural disaster has directly inflicted the loss of life and has destroyed property and the semblance of order by its powerful displays of energy. These events have resurrected the inveterate character of the American people, by the outpouring of assistance and compassion known throughout generations. Many of us have taken a deep breath and have prayed for the safety and security of those in the path of these storms. Prayer is the only unique method available to prevent a catastrophe from overwhelming our understanding and appreciation of our lives and those suffering around us. The help we give to others during this time of grief, is a reminder to all Americans that a magnanimous approach compels us to do the right thing.

It was 16 years ago today - September 11th, 2001 - America was under attack. The World Trade Center along with the Pentagon and another hijacked plane, succumbed to the forces of evil on that day. Nearly 3000 lives were lost due to the horrific and unconscionable betrayal of the human spirit. Since that day, our lives have changed dramatically as we are always reminded of the monstrous plan devised to destroy a nation blessed by its concepts of liberty and freedom. While 9/11 was a man made disaster, the character of the first responders and the entire nation, heightened a compassionate spirit for lives lost. The circumstances that led and promulgated this disaster, is an image of evil that Americans will never forget.

As is my custom, I was at Church yesterday. Our congregation and discerning Americans everywhere prayed for those suffering from the storms. I have family in Florida facing the inevitable, as the direct path of Hurricane Irma has progressed. I am comforted by Scripture, Romans 13: 8-10 when the Good Lord affectionately evokes the wisdom of the ages by reminding us "You shall love your neighbor as yourself". Many Americans have come to realize those affected by the hurricanes and the horrific events of 9/11, will be comforted by the spirit that will never cease to protect our understanding of life eternal.

Thanks again for your continuous support.

MY LOVE FOR GUANTANAMERA

August 23rd, 2017 2:21 PM

Dear Friends,

For the past several weeks I've noticed that when I enter my favorite coffee and bagel shops in Los Angeles, I've been hearing the sound of Cuban music in the background! As an American born in Havana, I am grateful the managers of these establishments have an appreciation for the music that has the ability to lift one's spirits during the course of a busy day.

One of the tunes known as the ultimate expression of freedom in a world where the loss of liberty is advancing as a threat to one's sovereignty, is Guantanamera. The lyrics written by Jose Marti, a 'sincere' man devoted to Cuba's independence from Spain over a century ago, is well known by everyone who loves autonomy and self-determination.

I will always remember my beloved father's advise. He mentioned it's best to live independent from the encroachment of government or other individuals when they seek to manipulate and advance their unscrupulous inclinations on one's life.

It is truly unfortunate Jose Marti's devotion to live without oppression, has been toppled by communism in a nation he so deeply loved. I can use this patriot's example for the transgressions in which freedom of speech has been excoriated on college campuses, the deceptive practices of the media, Congress, and other distinct manifestations of power in this country.

The simple first verses of Guantanamera will always remind us of our true convictions, when we embrace a life of inordinate integrity in a fallen world.

Yo soy un hombre sincero
De donde crece la palma,
Y antes de morir yo quiero
Echar mis versos del alma

I am an honest man
From where the palm tree grows
And before I die, I want
To pour the verses of my soul

There are passionate renditions of Guantanamera performed by artists that you might not know or heard in a long time. I've chosen 4 musical accomplishments. Celia Cruz, Joan Baez, The Sandpipers and Playing For Change are remarkable! You will appreciate a true presence of spirit in which freedom from all impediments surrounds you.
Perhaps Guantanamera can help restore the true meaning of America's originating values, as a catalyst to heal this nation from the treacherous forces of evil.
