can't come up with a title

Something was different about today: are you ever in a more pensive, melancholy mood
than usual? sure, who isn't. thoughts:

If I could touch the moon from this small patch of earth where I live and toil; and,
if another could touch the moon from their small patch of earth where they live and toil.
Write a story;''if'' I was creative enough for such a thing. I admire creative writers.

The Owl and the Pussycat poem; they sailed away under the moon on the sea...what if they could have touched the moon? And, when the author wrote their story..why did he put together these two - an odd combination,......hmmm...isn't that what makes for a fabulous story? The coming together of. These two would not seem to be a pair but the author places them together and it's a perfect fit.

When I stare at the moon there has to be at least one other person staring at the moon, right? Or, several thousand or million? This same moon: Napoleon, the Disciples of Christ, unknown tribes of today, Socrates (was he Greek), slaves of the south escaping to the north navigated by, etc...all looked/are looking at the same moon, right? Did you ever think about that? The moon, what is it that
fascinates us about the moon; its beauty, fullness...and there are romantic stories that go along with the moon; stories around fires...and on and on. Yeah, what is that song,,,''dancing in the moonlight..."

                                                        ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


ps: I missed once again this year Isaac's birthday wish (yesterday)    <Happy Birthday To You>
will post what I made you! I always tell what mistakes I made on something or apologize for it; why is that? BUT, this once is it okay if I brag and say... I did a GREAT JOB on Isaac's gifts...of course with my new Artista 730 Bernina (a splurge...eeeehhh). Who couldn't. 

TWO-SIDED Toddler APRON (my own pattern)

You LIVE FOREVER on Certain Websites?

DID YOU KNOW: EVEN AFTER YOU PASS AWAY (not intended to be morbid): Certain sites continue to age you and may even list you as still owning your home.....etc.?? No joke!

HOW DO I KNOW? My little sister, Amy, passed away October 2000 at the age of 41. While searching for friends and family on google.com and bing.com I decided to look up her name ''just out of interest."Why? So much has become way too PUBLIC, (my kids and I were finding many images & info. about us that we did not want out there); would Amy be listed anywhere; would there be Images of her? She never used a computer!!WELL SURPRISE!

ANSWER: yes!  According to one site Amy is now 52! Her husband Bruce who passed away at the age of 55 is 62 now! They still have a home which is valued and the address is provided.CRAZY.
I did not bother to look any farther than the one site. There were no images; however, had I posted any in my blog or elsewhere they most likely would have been visible.

Is it possible to discontinue Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin, etc. and be ''invisible''on the net?
So far I can find/locate anyone I have searched for....hmmmmm. Even if we enter ''keep private'' within these sites information still appears on the net!

Anyone know how to become totally invisible from the net? Let me know. That way I can only be found in an orbituary.  I don't believe anyone will bother to look for me there, so yeah.

Should we all go on a quest, turn the tide on all these sites and go for invisibility. What would happen to Google, Facebook, etc.... if we quit the sites even for a day or a week???

ANYWAY, we do eventually depart (not to be morbid); but, will live forever on the net, is my guess. 
 
CHAPTER 1 verse 12 of JOHN:
  Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God—Acts 4:12
Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.”
Romans 1:16
....the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile.
Ephesians 1:13
And you also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked in him with a seal,  
1 Thessalonians 5:9
For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.
Titus 2:11
For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. (Jesus Christ)
