Truthful Tuesday – September 15th 2020

Today’s questions: Do you have a favorite author? If so, who and why? If not, why not?

Throughout life I’ve had a few favorites – authors I’ve read more than one of their books.

Presently I am somewhat of a smorgasbord reader – pick and choose type by actual

topical interest.

The past few years I’ve donated many of the books I read to two different area local

senior centers.

I rarely read a book twice unless it’s a textbook with highlighted portions beneficial

to my hobbies or writing.

My preference in genres has been mostly non-fiction as I try to live within the

world of reality.

An actual book in hand is how I like to read versus the tablet with its’ constant

flip of pages from accidental finger touches.

I refer to myself as old-school in so many categories – learn the changes since tis

imperative only dislike them immensely.

Adventures, Bible, children’s books (read many to my own children), crime stories,

educational, medical, mysteries, psychological, romance, self-help books

and manuals plus required textbooks pretty much sums up my

reading experience during my tenure of life.

A Wandering Mind

I think
I reminisce

I think
I look at what is

Life hardened me
Angry, bitter old be

Good memories fore’er thine
Impossible relive turn back time

Waiting for storm ‘n struggle pass
New day – new problem face alas

Patience doubtful future’s forecast
Living circumstances endurance last

Despite number respective tries
Reality for me alone destined die

Morbid thoughts knowledge ahead
Diagnosis God-awful ‘C’ October’s dread

Past few weeks filled surprise negativities
Brought thru channels hard aged perceive

Unbelievable full circle life end this way
Depression’s toll on gal each ‘n every day

Smiling ‘n its’ continual outward presence
Private life’s factual happiness mere pretense
