random thoughts and inner words...



This blog is my creation. It is my own words and a lot of words from music that has influenced my feelings and actions. Music has the ability to make you happy or make you cry; sob or be racked with tears. Take time to listen to the world around you and the music that comes from it. Not all music is heard; some is read from the pages of books. It's up to you to hear the notes... Thank you for reading...

Tomorrow the plow becomes the sword...


Well, I have something to be extremely proud of today. My oldest son, John, has passed the long and arduous hiring process of the Kenner, LA, Police Department and is scheduled to start with them on Monday. This is a great accomplishment for anyone to meet. Although that really wasn' the hardest part of the whole ordeal, it was in preparation for what is to come. As an ex-law enforcement officer, I know what to expect for him, in general. He will now enter the training academy to eart his POST Certification. This is a gruelling and character building ordeal that will shape his future and earn him the spot he has sought since beginning the process.



"I'd have to be a warrior,
a slave I couldn't be.
A soldier and a conqueror,
fighting to be free."

CONGRATULATIONS TO JOHN, FROM YOUR DAD!
