All forms change, as journeys evolve…

-Posted by D.C. Worth, for Barbay (France)

Keeping a light heart, with care & support for my Mother (in France)... So fragile and mysterious is life; as each day's light dances like intricate figures on a beautiful merry-go-round…
All too soon, journeys must evolve...

Will add more when I can; as I continue to be away...
This video reminds me of my own mother's [youth and spirit] as a young philosopher, artist; and now violet light of kindness; soon to fly with grace [like a butterfly]...

Stay well, keep a light heart...
And always seek good thoughts…

And keep Freedom ringing, US Americans!

Retaining (not changing) Liberties in USA

-Posted by D.C. Worth, for Barbay (France)

Still away... And want to remind citizens of our Nation, to insist upon retaining the same liberties we've inherited, and will give to our future generations... And not to let transient causes sweep it all away.


And remember to honor our Soldiers who every day fight against danger... And remember those who escaped Tyranny, by diligently following the steps and protocol of U.S. citizenship; as outlined in the U.S. Constitution...

And only this adherence will help strengthen commitment to our Founding Father's principals; and U.S. citizen's rights & freedom to retain them.

In a world without people...

Evidently, without people, there's no one to preform maintenance... Nature executes its hostile take-over... And after the echo of laughing children; you get this sensationalist (Gore-style) video... (Creepy)

Gov. Christie: Democrats’ Tax Cap Plan A Piece Of ‘Swiss Cheese’

Governor Chris Christie signs a $29.4 billion state spending plan after lawmakers narrowly approve it after hours of debate...

NJ Governor Christie signs state budget in South River: More.

In my view, it appears that Democrat budget trims are "too-painful" partially because they mean a loss of Tax-payer subsidized "re-election tools" which cater to special interests... This is a "highly flawed" short-term financial vision; because, what part of potential "State bankruptcy" (at this point) is possible to ignore?

UPDATE! Gov Christie appears to have made a non-partisan impression on other State Governors, in charge of balancing State budgets... However, cuts are best implemented in logical (& unified) fashion... But has ZERO support from DEMS!

Fouling Pristine Republican beaches, and Minority GOP on the campaign trail

Yeah, that's right... Worrying about elections is more important than the rising Obama tent cities; as Democrat's restricted hiring policy, continues to threaten the job creators...

There sure are a lot of Democrats at the Tea Parties these days.... In fact, they're a blend of what we call, "concerned American U.S. Citizens"...
