Yes somehow, despite the pathetic economic struggles we continue to deal with, we do remember today as a day marked in history as the liberation of Zimbabwe from her captives the Rhodesians and the colonial oppressors that only had interest in gaining wealth and ownership of a land that was never theirs to begin with. That was one of the pro's that we can all celebrate today, being set free by those courageous to fight - but the biggest Con is that 46 years later we are now enslaved to a new master, a regime that is uncontrollable, where greed and ruthless selfishness abound, at the expense and on the broken backs and shattered dreams and will of our beautiful people.

Why have we endured, put up with, and accepted this despotic mayhem? This is not freedom, this is not liberation, while yes it is independence from colonial rule, it is enslavement of a most evil kind, and tyrannical rule at it's finest. We have settled for so much less. Truth be told! Why do we continue to settle for second best?!

I never told my parents what I did when I was 13. They have both passed away. When I was 13, I was completely infatuated with a girl that was 15, and I convinced myself that we were boyfriend and girlfriend, and so I had a heart with her initial tattoo on my wrist so it would be hidden by my Casio digital calculator watch out of plain sight from my parents and teachers. I'm almost 60 now and it's the only tattoo I ever had, and the guy that did it told me he knew what he was doing, but he messed it up, and had to start over...the things we do for "love!" - she had absolutely no idea that I was totally and completely besotted by here, I would have walked on burning coals for her, but she literally didn't have a clue of my infatuation. I regret being silly and doing that but it has stayed with me my entire life.

This morning a car that was loaded to the rafters, stopped on a street, the person exited the vehicle, and placed what looked like something white and furry under a tree. They drove off and, upon inspection discovered he dropped off a dead cat! Why are people so nasty and cruel? The Humane Society wasn't that far down the road - why not do the right thing at least with some sort of dignity for the poor animal? Shame on you.

I have been blogging on and off for many years, went radio silent for over a decade and came back last year. I revamped my blog, and now am struggling to gain traction. I post a variety of content from personal issues, Christianity, business and life in general, whenever something of interest catches my attention. I would be graciously thankful for feedback on how to promote and gain traffic if you have any ideas: https://jubberjournal.com/
