Thoughts of the week........OMG

Well, I just posted the clip of a line up for a doctor in a community in Ontario. I watched it on the news and that was disturbing. It made sense that when I had to go to the hospital there was a 10 hour wait for triage only. I left deciding I would be more comfortable dying at home, if it came to that. Triage is supposed to be done immediately to determine the seriousness. At least that is how it was done in the military for disasters. No surprise that someone out West died in the emergency room waiting. Global news this morning reported that half of Canadians are $200. or less away from not being able to pay bills. What was not mentioned was who and how the poll was conducted. I also heard CDC on CNN concerned about changes regarding dissecting the organization and other concerning problems. OMG. CDC is so important to the world. I was thinking of the difference between Trump and Putin. Actually, I was thinking of the similarities. I was thinking about Israel and Hamas and how we allow Terrorists to prosper. I was reading in the Catholic Registar (Dec 22, 2024, pg 37), that since 7 Oct 23, there has been a 93% rise in hate crimes in Toronto. Jewish schools in Montreal have been shot at (it has happened here in Toronto as well. Glorification of terrorism and violence are heard in the streets, praising the Oct 7 attack by Hamas and its affiliates who murdered 1,200 people in Israel. Because civil authorities failed to do something, it was taken to the courts. What was happening at the universities against the Jewish community sickened me. During Christmas this year a family member asked, "Have the Jewish community not suffered enough?" I too became a verbal target from an American post for not falling for the crap that Hamas was constructing. They don't like it when they fail to gain support. We really need to do something to stop all these radicals from recruiting. Were my thoughts all negative? Not at all. Wait. One more thing. How can I forget? Our Mayor is raising our taxes again. I have reached a point that when I hear her speak or Trump is talking, I change the channel. I have also swore more this year when I am alone than my entire life? Not really, but at least I will have something to say when I go to confession. That will be a new one. Oh before I forget, there was that poor woman who got scammed out of what 750,000 or 850,000 because she thought she had formed a relationshop with Brad Pitt and he needed the money because it was all tied up because of his divorce and he couldn't get to it. Women and men out there, do not give away your money to people. I have already had at least two so called "celebrities" actors wanting to connect. Yeah right! Do your research. I am glad to say I have never been on a blind date and never used a dating site - ever! If you do, keep your money people. People try to scam me at least once a week. That is why protection is really needed nowadays. Now, the good stuff. Oh no there is more..........What's his name - Elan Musk? He called our Prime Minister a girl. What is wrong with girls? What is wrong with women? I love being one. I think he looks more like a girl than Trudeau. Trudeau is handsome and normally polite as are most of our politicians except what is his name Polierre? Yup, our next Prime Minister. Yup, just a moment while I go bang my head. I know of people who are going to vote for him, who can't stand him, because they want change. Change is indeed needed but in what direction are we going to go? Rob Ford bought a baseball cap which says "Canada is not for sale". Wait I have to go bang my head again. Boy, oh boy oh boy. Anyhow, that is all I can say about my thoughts of the week. The good stuff? We have great people in Toronto. We have many who have left and many more who will but I am and always will feel a kinship to the people here. They come from all over the world and settle here. Many give so much back to our city and country. My tip for the week? Balance your life. Get enjoyment from it. Nature is so important. Spend time with her. Love your family and or surround yourself with positive people. Go have fun. That's enough for now because I want to have some fun. Why don't you buy one of my books if you have any money. silvaredigonda.myshopify.com
