And so it goes.

As of this minute (12:01 PM Central Standard Time) the Dragon turns another year older.

It has not been an easy year for me this year. I have had a butt load of medical problems. Money has been so bloody tight.

The economy sucks and what you do make does not even begin to cover your day to day needs. In order to do that you either have to go deep into debt or live so minimalist that you never get to enjoy the basic things in life that make it all worth living.

Is it any wonder why I just don””””t feel like celebrating?

I know that is not fair to Red. She has bent over backwards to make sure I am OK. But she has also carried a full load at school and a part time job as well as another part time job as a Tutor at the school writing center.

She in all her love just wants me to have a nice day for my birthday. That is all well and good.

But it is so hard to tell her that it is all the things that she says and does on a daily basis.

Those are the things that I celebrate.

Those are the things that I live for and crave on a daily basis.

Those are the things that drive me to live each day more or less in the moment.

“The Past are my memories, The Present is my Life, The Future is for Dreams“.

Red is the other part of me that I have always lacked and never knew how to fill, or even that I was missing part of me, until I met her. From that moment on I just knew. She is like the perfect mortar to my wall. It can be as weak or as strong as I want it to be.

But she is the binding agent that flows among every particle of my being, Rigid, Fluid or Flexible keeping the whole being that is Dragon together and able to weather any storm.

So you see my love. The celibration of the day of my birth is so trivial against the Celibration that is my Life with You!.

Thank you for every second of every day of every week of every month of every year that is the rest of my Life.

I look forward to so many more. All to be with you…

Peace Out,

Dragon

Former astronaut: Man not alone in universe

I have always believed that we are not alone in this universe. It is just too damn big for us to be the only ones. And if we are the smartest thing out there then I hate to say it but the universe is fucked.

(CNN) — Earth Day may fall later this week, but as far as former NASA astronaut Edgar Mitchell and other UFO enthusiasts are concerned, the real story is happening elsewhere.

Mitchell, who was part of the 1971 Apollo 14 moon mission, asserted Monday that extraterrestrial life exists, and that the truth is being concealed by the U.S. and other governments.He delivered his remarks during an appearance at the National Press Club following the conclusion of the fifth annual X-Conference, a meeting of UFO activists and researchers studying the possibility of alien life forms.

Mankind has long wondered if we”re “alone in the universe. [But] only in our period do we really have evidence. No, we”re not alone,” Mitchell said.

“Our destiny, in my opinion, and we might as well get started with it, is [to] become a part of the planetary community. … We should be ready to reach out beyond our planet and beyond our solar system to find out what is really going on out there.”
