Work Ethics, Christian and Otherwise

As Bucky Fuller once famously said,

"We should do away with the absolutely specious notion that everybody has to earn a living."

We've got enough stuff- food, medicine, housing, love, eggnog. We've got a supply chain problem. There is a small bunch who have created a bottleneck in order to gratify enormous egos and worries about penis size.

                        If I had an idea of what we could do about it, I'd write it down here for you. 

Hope you all have a wonderful holiday season. Give us peace on earth and end this dreadful, dreadful war.

 

Merry Christmas Ronny Elliott

Pay Dues Or Pay Attention

Somehow I seem to end up at the right place at the right time. Maybe wherever you are is the right place at any given time. Now, of course, I've been "run over" by a car and I've been hit in the face with a violin. In the case, I should add.

Maybe I should write my life story. Who would believe it? Who would read it?

If I'm proud of anything, it's that I'm a dreamer.

I wish for you the happiness that I have this holiday season. Give us peace on earth and end this dreadful, dreadful war.

 

Reptile Brains and Worry

If worry would keep nuclear weapons tucked away, we'd be safe as milk, right? I've always said that guilt was a product of evolution so that humans wouldn't all get squashed fornicating in the middle of the road.

With the holiday season bearing down on us, let's sing all those songs about babies in mangers and melting snowmen and spread some peace and good cheer. Let's make it a good one in case it's the last one.

Give us peace on earth and end this dreadful, dreadful war.

 

What's The Use In Gettin' Happy?

 

On a day like today my thoughts turn to my thoughts. I wish for all of you, human and otherwise, the happiness that seems to have found me.

Every day is a holiday if you allow it. 

The clues are in the miracles, my friend. Sing it the way that feels right at the moment. Love every step of the way.

Give us peace on earth and end this dreadful, dreadful war.

Counting Stars On The Ceiling

Here's hoping that I've never taken miracles for granted. Seems to me that a man knows too much when he thinks he knows everything. Wisdom, as I see it, depends on embracing the mysteries. I'll go out with more questions than answers.

All those t shirts and coffee cups with cute slogans about dogs' love tell you most of what you need to know. Get down on the floor and pet one. Love Lesson #1.

Give us peace on earth and end this dreadful, dreadful war.

 

For All I'm Worth

Now, more than ever, I'm reminded to not take anything too seriously. I've used up ten lifetimes' quota of good luck. Whatever's left is all dessert. 

Oh, I've worried. Complained, too. Nobody has spent more time hand wringing than I have. Let's don't even start on guilt. Let's just declare me the world's champion and move on to hypochondria.

Let me just say, right now, that if I had ever played any lottery, I would have surely won it. 

I traded the family cow for magic beans in the beginning. Seems they were perennial. Who knew?

Give us peace on earth and end this dreadful, dreadful war.
