Call Me the Clay

Mindblown: a blog about philosophy.

  • Today’s Teens/Young People…..

    So I’ve been thinking a lot about our young people – I suppose that is because of the struggles I’ve had recently with this person living under my roof.  This person….whom I used to know as my daughter. It seems that with all of the technology that is out there – our young people are…

  • Fire Prompts Evacuations Near My Home…Again!

    Fire Fire prompts evacuations in Tangle Aire. These pics show you a little of what folks are going through.  It’s difficult to put into words what you feel when you see it up close.  When you see that it is heading towards your friends’ homes….or your own…..or your parents’ (as in my case). It’s heart-wrenching. …

  • Craigslist Ad (for entertainment only – NOT real)

    A CRAIG’S LIST PERSONALS AD To the Guy Who Tried to Mug Me in Downtown  Savannah night before last. Date: 2010-09-27, 1:43 a.m.  E.S.T. I was the guy wearing the black Burberry jacket that you demanded that I hand over, shortly after you pulled the knife on me and my girlfriend, threatening our lives. You also…

  • Words for Women to Live By

    Words for Women to Live By (Received in an email recently) 1. Aspire to be Barbie – the witch has everything.  2. If the shoe fits – buy them in every color.  3. Take life with a pinch of salt… A wedge of lime, and a shot of tequila.  4. In need of a support…

  • Passion – Do You Know What Excites You?

    Okay – let me start off by telling you this is NOT an X-rated post.  Nope, no sex or intimacy here…. So, if you are still with me after that ‘disclaimer’ – let me tell you what I’m talking about.  Unless you’ve had your head in the sand lately – there is very little chance…

  • Simply Random Thoughts – ‘Cause It’s Been a LONG Week!!

    Arnold & Maria…..what a shame.  Truly.  Arnold? Scum.  Ex-Housekeeper/Baby Momma? Disappointing to women-kind.  WHY do women do each other that way?  We all know that we don’t want to be dumped on by our men….so WHY-OH-WHY participate in helping one do it to another woman!?!?!?  And are women so stupid as to believe that just…

  • What Drives You?

    I’ve read LOADS of things about quality of life, pursuing your dreams, etc.  It is very inspiring.  But my problem is that I don’t know where my heart is.  Not really. I always wonder why I don’t know.  I consider myself a pretty self-confident person.  I have strong morals.  I’m committed.  But why don’t I…

  • What Are We Doing to Our Young!?!?

    I don’t understand.  I try.  And I’m SURE it’s not because I’m getting old or I’m such a fuddy-duddy.  It’s not because I lack intelligence….because I am known for being smarter than the average bear! But I heard on the news this morning about a mother who is injecting her own 8 year old daughter…

  • This Journey Is Bumpy….

    I’ve neglected this blog – I know.  I think it is two-fold.  Life got hectic and I kinda forgot about it.  And, life got hectic (repeat intended).  But I’m back and ready to move on. First of all, I’ve been working through the pain.  And the anger.  And everything else that goes along with being…

  • The Truth Hurts…

    So hubby and I have been having some real heart-to-hearts lately.  And they have been extremely heart-breaking…for me anyways.  Not him. He told me one day that he never knew what love felt like.  Meaning, he didn’t ever feel it for me.  Nice to know 9+ years later. Yesterday, I spotted where he had posted…

Got any book recommendations?
