Yikes!

On the Porch

Onisha Ellis

Yikes! It is 10pm and I have nothing to blog about. Well, of course I have thoughts but they haven’t gelled yet. Last week I canned peaches and this week I canned vegetable soup and apple sauce. I think I may have put all my creativity into Mason jars. I think I should get a pass this week because, are you ready……….Friday is my birthday and it’s a BIG one. I am not telling which big one, but trust me, it’s big. In fact it is so big, I am leaving town. We are heading to Atlanta to pick up our daughter then it’s two days of shopping and dining out. If that doesn’t make a gal feel better about her birthday, I don’t know what will.

While I am busy celebrating and eating Chinese food, yes Chinese for my birthday, why don’t you mull this question and leave me your thoughts, who destroyed truth, the person/organization that lied or you and I , the people who are too lazy or intimidated to call out the person/organization? Why is truth important to you?

    Happy belated birthday, Onisha. I hope you had two glorious days of celebrating YOU! I’m ambivalent about truth. We all kill it daily. If we always told the truth, we would hurt feelings and be accused of being insensitive. Telling the truth would mean getting into trouble a lot of the time. If you’re surrounded by people who believe differently than you, ‘keeping a low profile’ rather than telling the truth is a safety issue. I guess we’ve all killed it. I try to practice compassionate truth.

    That was an excellent blog. I liked where you said all your creativity went into Mason jars, but you were mistaken on that. Your birthday plans sound wonderful. I was going to wish you a happy birthday tomorrow on facebook and perhaps I still will, because I have it written on my calendar. Who destroyed truth well, we really do knw don’t we?

    There isn’t one person who destroyed truth for me, but I definitely feel it is a rare commodity these days. In many respects I think the truth is more precious than gold coins. I wish others felt that way as well.
