Stories Be Told


Many days, I have stories to tell. Some days,

the folks who read my tales can relate and often respond.

Many others, for their own reasoning, disregard and never do.

And that’s okay. Everyone has their own stories to tell.

This life is about story building. Some are more than willing

to share their stories; some are not.


We live and learn from others, but mostly from ourselves.

(You have to personally touch the fire in order to feel the burn.)


Life is part reality, part imagining and make-believe fantasy.

That’s why today people like Walt Disney, Steven Spielberg,

George Lucas and JFK. Rowling are so popular. In their time

it used to be the likes of Homer and the Brothers Grim.


People can either relate experientially, or are simply a psycho-

logical wannabe. Typically, fantasy gives reality it’s underlying

meaning, figuratively speaking that is.


Mythology has been part of the human experience since the

beginning of the Anthropocene epoch in history.


And so, dear reader, you may be asking where all this happens

to lead? Well, I’ve said my spiel. Now, it’s all up to you. Take it

or leave it.


If it was up to me, I would liked to have seen Humpty

Dumpty thrown at the cinematic screening of Leaving Las Vegas.


I thought that movie really sucked.
