Beautiful day today. Today was a National Trail Walking Day, which I did. I also met some Meetup folks today too and chatted, much about writing. I played chess, too, the other day via of Meetup.
The vegan lifestyle. What is inspired? The introduction to Carlos Santana's autobiography is. A plant-based diet. Someone said today, after I had described to her what I was eating, that this diet I have been partaking in has a lot of starches. This may be true. Perhaps I do need to incorporate more plain-old-vegetables into what I put in my mouth. Smoothies. This requires a blender which I don't have. So I eat a banana. I eat a banana. It is so easy. One just pulls it off the tree when it's ready. First it must be shipped and then I can go to the store and buy it! There's a lot to a banana. Bananas have a lot of starch too! I swam today. Just enough to get a workout. I got my swim in. I swam, I swum. I pulled myself through the water from one end of the pool to the other. I don't do that neat flip and push I just grab the side of the pool and push off. Not fan...
We'll. It rained today. A lot. I wanted to drive more than I did but I still made my "quota". It's the foot/ankle/toe thing going on, hurting like a throbbing, dull, aching. That's what driving does after a while when you have a fractured foot. It was nice today because I texted some friends. Tomorrow I may see my brother and nephew again, the little tyke. I will be on crutches still but, hey, it will be fun to hang out and get kicked by nephew a lot. That is what he did last time while we were sitting down at the table in the restaurant. In The Shade of The Night Tree I'm going to allow some rest in the shade of the night tree where rest is allowed and the cool wind beckons warmth under the pillows of stars; comets remind me that we are not alone. Earth time, Greensboro, NC. At night. https://www.saatchiart.com/art/Painting-Night-Tree/850521/4413789/view
Thanksgiving. The long journey across the ocean. Retching. Sickness. Escape from the tyranny. It's why I am here on this continent. Thank you. There was a feast too with the natives. Just like we learned about in grade school. The Pilgrims and the Native Americans eating together. History has taken many wild turns since Europeans first sailed across the ocean to America. We can remember when we arrived that we had help from those that were already here. They fed us and helped us to survive in the New World. We can return to the days when we accepted each other’s comforts and help. Those who were with the land and those that came to a new land. Those that were here and those that eventually had other ideas like expansion. Those differences, those objectives that were not the same, could not be mended at the time. So different in world view, and those that wanted to claim did so ...
