three posts?

I just noticed that I only posted three times last year.  not quite sure what that says about me.. I used to post all the time, felt I had something to say to the world, but as I've gone on this journey with my weight and self discovery and all that jazz I feel I have less and less to say to the world in general. Maybe I have just been beaten down so much that I'm sick and tired of trying to get my voice heard in a maelstrom of voices telling me I'm wrong, I'm ugly, I'm useless and I simply do not matter.

how incredibly sad is that.

it is not a message we should be sending out to anyone, but yet 'they' send it out all the time.

of course "they' also can't seem to even get what America is all about when they sit and scream and try to defend it.  For example the coke commercial where America the Beautiful is sung is several different languages and shows people of different races and ethnic backgrounds and cultural backgrounds as well as ... what is the politically correct term for it.. if it is not a choice, then it is not a lifestyle choice.. *sigh* oh well, lets just go with what 'everyone' is calling it, a gay couple... (a couple of the same gender?)

So people are outraged, calling it terrorism.. (oh yes, because Coke is ALL about terrorism.. *headdesk*) and a whole bunch of other horrible things.

um.. people... there is a lot to be outraged about in regards to Coke, but showcasing the melting pot of humanity, the country that begs at our cultural front door:

“Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed, to me:
I lift my lamp beside the golden door.

― "quote on the Statue of Liberty"

this.. this is not one of them.

This is my virtual hug to Coke for those stupid idiots, that really need to be laughed at because of their stupidity and shamed into learning before they talk about things they do not understand, trying to hurt them for trying to do something beautiful.

Now if they could just make food instead of food like substances...
