And what I’ve gotten and what I’ve seen from those documentaries in shows and other things is that the kid, the said person who decided to take out it on others because they wasn’t cared for enough wasn’t loved enough didn’t have no one to come to talk to about their feelings, they couldn’t go to a counselor they couldn’t go to a friend they couldn’t go to a parent and you can tell a slight change in a person even if you never met this person if you’ve been going to a specific district, your whole life to the point where you know not everything but most like you can tell who’s here and who’s not here and who’s upset and who’s not upset because you’ve been in a specific district your whole life so you kinda know it’s kinda not it’s not new to you like me personally at the school that I went to I’ve been in district for a good while and myself I can tell when somebody was upset or wouldn’t the same person wasn’t here personally I was known in my school some good some for bad and it honestly hurts me and these stories cause it’s like what did his child go through what grow this person to do this and children why was they weren’t Biden? Nobody tried to help if somebody is a little too quiet that’s typically a sign of that. There’s something else there there’s something else more to the story and if you see a kid who’s who normally sits over a deck off the corner, not really socializing try to be that one person who tries to talk to the kid. I don’t care if he’s the weirdest here she is the weirdest person in the school or nobody likes him that doesn’t get that doesn’t mean you have to be like that believe me. We should all know what that feels like. We should all know. We should all understand into the parents who have lost their children or whose child was or happens to be happens to be the school shooter. My condolences to all of y’all because no child deserves to die at a young age and it’s sad to think about. I hate hearing these stories because me just there’s…..

Don’t waste your life trying to impress others.

On the morning of April 22, 1996, the most beloved American housewife writer of the entire postwar 20th century died of surgical complications at a small San Francisco hospital. She was 69 years old. She had undergone a small kidney transplant operation 19 days earlier. She had been quietly battling polycystic kidney disease for the previous 30 straight years. Her name was Erma Louise Fiste Bombeck. She had been, by every reasonable estimate of the American syndicated newspaper industry, the single most widely read working female humorist in the United States from approximately 1968 through her death. She had been writing her small twice-weekly column "At Wit's End" for 31 straight years. She had been syndicated in 900 American and Canadian newspapers. She had been read every single morning, by the early 1980s, by approximately 30 million American housewives at their small breakfast tables before they sent their husbands to work and their children to school. She had insisted, throughout her entire 31-year working career, that this had been the secret to everything she had ever written. She told The New York Times once, in one of the small interviews she gave very late in her career: "My type of humor is almost pure identification. A housewife reads my column and says, 'But that's happened to me! I know just what she's talking about!' If I didn't do my own housework, then I have no business writing about it. I spend 90 percent of my time living scripts and 10 percent writing them." She had done her own housework throughout every single one of her 31 working years. Erma Louise Fiste had been born in the small farming town of Bellbrook, Ohio, on February 21, 1927. Her father had been a small Dayton city crane operator named Cassius Edwin Fiste. Her mother had been a small homemaker named Erma Haines Fiste, after whom Erma had been named.

Quote of the day by Maya Angelou: 'When someone shows you who they are, believe them the...' -

This sounds very familiar

Are the seven rewards mentioned in the letters to the churches in Revelation applicable to all those who are in Christ? That’s the question.  Here are the seven rewards: 1.   To him that overcomes will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God. 2.   He that overcomes shall not be hurt of the second death. 3.   To him that overcomes will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knows saving he that receives it. 4.   And he that overcomes, and keeps my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations: And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; And I will give him the morning star. 5.   Letter 5 reward to the Sardis: He that overcomes, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels. 6.   Letter 6 reward to the Philadelphia: He that overcomes, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels. I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth. Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown. Him that overcomes will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name. 7.   reward to the Laodiceans to him that overcomes will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. We only need to examine one example to see that all seven rewards applies to all those in Christ. (See comment for the rest)

📰 The Opinionated Acorn: “The Wave California Killed — The Lost Legend of Killer Dana” Before luxury yachts, tourist selfies, and postcard harbor views, Southern California hid a surfing paradise many old-timers still talk about like a dead friend. Its name? Killer Dana. Located near present-day Dana Point Harbor, Killer Dana wasn’t just another surf break — it was considered one of California’s greatest waves. In the 1950s and early 1960s, surfers described it as long, powerful, and almost perfectly shaped. Some rides reportedly stretched hundreds of yards. On a good day, surfers could carve through fast walls of water beneath dramatic bluffs lined with beach shacks and old California charm. Then California did what California sometimes does best: It built over it. In the 1960s, construction began on Dana Point Harbor. Massive rock jetties and harbor engineering permanently changed the coastline. By 1966, the legendary wave was effectively gone. Buried. Destroyed. Erased by progress. To surfers, this wasn’t just environmental change — it was the death of a cultural landmark. Imagine bulldozing Yankee Stadium, but for wave riders. Why “Killer” Dana? Despite the name, the wave’s reputation came from its powerful speed and demanding rides, not a body count. Surfers respected it… and feared wiping out on it. Decades later, surf historians, photographers, and aging wave riders still mourn what was lost. Old photographs show crowded lineups where yachts now bob peacefully in the harbor. You can visit Dana Point today, stand near the harbor, watch the boats, and realize something strange: One of California’s most legendary waves is still there… just trapped beneath concrete, rock, and memory. California didn’t lose Killer Dana to nature. We built over paradise ourselves.
