Blogging and social media strategy

Hey, folks!

Just sharing some ideas.

I’ve started to categorize my posts here that are purely opinion in their own section on the navigation, trying to keep them separate from items from elsewhere that I want to share.

Also I’m thinking of using my personal Facebook page to be where I share stuff that isn’t personal and keep mostly personal stuff on my timeline.

Do you guys do anything similar to this?

FYI This appears to be an attempt to get me to divulge my Facebook login credentials. Just posting for the public good. 😁 Which is why we should do anything in life. #cracking #phishing #facebook #sms

My first, I think, car podcast.

Listen to the most recent episode of my podcast: 2019-06-21 Washington, DC, here I come! https://anchor.fm/hourback/episodes/2019-06-21-Washington–DC–here-I-come-e4djs7

Sorry again for the sound quality! I’ll try to do better next time.

Honesty; Crazy, by Seal

People who tell you to tell the truth are lying. That’s ironic, isn’t it? Not only are they lying by extolling the virtues of lying but they don’t actually want you to tell the truth. Who wishes to hear nothing but, or even just mostly, the truth? Not many! 🙂 Just shut up and face it.

And yes, it is crazy that in a world full of people only some want to fly. Excuse it however you like; it’s a crazy shame and denotes failure, failure on the part of multiple parties including those who “do not wish” to fly. That’s the best excuse for something, saying “that’s the way I *want* it to be”. Because considering for a slight moment that that is not in fact the way the person *wants* it to be would bring on the storm of truth.

If you have any idea what I’m talking about (generically, not specifically — in other words I’m not expecting only to hear from people who know me personally) please leave a comment so I know you are out there. 🙂 It’s nice to see Web traffic stats but actual feedback is extremely meaningful to me right now. (But that’s not your problem! I know! I know.) 🙂

Life After Divorce

This came up on my computer’s lock screen.  Beautiful view!!!  Something to look forward to after this catastrophe.  It’s somewhere in Argentina.  If you want to know *exactly* where ask me and I will tell you.  Because I think I made a note of it somewhere.  And if you’d like to accompany me on the trip then please leave a comment and we can talk about it!  🙂

This photo strikes me as being a wonderful metaphor for life.  If you were to reach one of those peaks it would certainly require a lot of effort, planning, patience, strength, sacrifice, resilience. . . .  But along the way is so beautiful.  Every step brings a new perspective, revealing things that were hidden before but visible now with your keener eye, higher vantage point. . . .
