I refuse to be the kind of person who loses their mind over a delayed train or lets a spilled coffee set the tone for the whole day.

I want to be the one who stays composed, who sees the good even when things don’t go as planned. The kind of person who breathes through the little chaos and still finds beauty in how the day unfolds.

I want to be soft. I want to be steady.

Correction: A previous version of this article mistakenly referred to K.C. Saunders as the County Administrator. He is, in fact, the Budget Director for Lorain County. The correction applies to Part 3, paragraph 3; Part 4, paragraph 1 & 4; and Part 5, paragraph 4 of the published story.

It might feel routine—grabbing your keys, heading out the door, rushing through the day. But the truth is, you never know what could happen in the next hour… the next minute.

Life can change in a blink. And if it ever does, you’ll want to know that the last words you said were full of love—not silence.

So hug them tight. Say the words. Every time.

Even when you’re in a hurry.

Even when you’re frustrated.

Even when you think you’ll be back in five minutes.

Because one day, that moment might matter more than anything else.

sometimes i wonder how many versions of myself i’ve outgrown without even noticing. i look back at old photos and remember the thoughts i used to carry, the dreams i thought would save me. it’s strange how you can live inside yourself every day and still not realize you’re evolving. it’s only when you look back that you realize how far you’ve come, how many lives you’ve already lived in the same skin.

The retirement fund is actually an endowment, and the main problem is that the baby boomer population will start to die out by 2034. Later generations have much smaller populations, and therefore the rate of paymnents will begin to decline about 2034.

That Ponzi bullshit has been around a long time. This used to be my subject. For starters, the Republicans long have tried to "sunset" all benefits. That "all" includes stuff like Medicare, VA, Black Lung, food stamps, etc ,

The Republicans falsely …

The object is to make beneficiaries hate the administration of the program so much that Congress will be able to give the trust funds for investment in the markts.

Most vulnerable are SSI recipients because their payments come via the bidget and not the trust funds.

I've been working on a solution to save the retirement fund using charitable deductions. Several of the former comissioners thanked me and SSA has a web site explaining it. The default of Trust Funds is supposed to apex in 2033. After…

This could work, but not now while DJT is intent on privatizing Social Security to benefit the wealthy who'd raid and/or fail to safeguard the Trust Funds. If we donated right now, the oligarchs would just confiscate a bigger pot of money.

As of 2034 (give or take), the Trust Funds are projected to be depleted -- but Social Security would still be paid out of ongoing FICA taxes. Those FICA taxes wouldn't cover the entire amount due, so projections are that Social Security checks would continue t…

Don't need much to move the default date. One donor like Musk could do it....
