I'd like to qualify this mess by stating I have had and do have a number of homosexual friends whose company I enjoy and for which I hold no ill will. This is because they have a comportment and decorum consistent with mine and I don't like some flaming fool playing flamboyant gay personality around me.

So. Be all of this as it may I am just wanting to guarantee that if you act appropriately there is no need to involve me in your personal life. I don't give a rip about your personal life nor how you comport yourself behind closed doors. I will be polite and socially aware around you should we ever interact. Social life not withstanding:

Day of Pink started in 2007 because fags feel the need to celebrate their deviance and furthermore this inclination for taking it out of the closet where it belongs.

2SLGBTQIA+ individuals like the fugly debauched fag scoundrel bitch whitehouse press secretary should make note that too many of us are opposed to the blatant flaunting by their sickos and will pretty much address them in that manner of our choosing regardless of what they want in the way of quality, diversity, and acceptance and quite contrary to the stupid left who just wants their vote regardless of how immoral their behavior may become.

It's simply not possible for normal human beings to accept overt miscreant perverison in our midst.

I'm not for bullying of any sort, even of reprobate sexual deviants like 2SLGBTQIA+ individuals so keep your panty waist lecher attitudes to yourself, maintain a respectable distance, and we can cohabitate.

Get in my face just once and suffer the consequences, poofs. You are NOT welcome in my presence with your derelict lifestyles and deviate sexual proclivities.
 

The Gospel according to Matthew
27:50		Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.
27:51		And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;
27:52		And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,
27:53		And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.
27:54		Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.
27:55		And many women were there beholding afar off, which followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him:
27:56		Among which was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedees children.
27:57		When the even was come, there came a rich man of Arimathaea, named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus' disciple:
27:58		He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered.

27:59

And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,

27:60		And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed.
27:61		And there was Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary, sitting over against the sepulchre.
27:62		Now the next day, that followed the day of the preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees came together unto Pilate,
27:63		Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I will rise again.
27:64		Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night, and steal him away, and say unto the people, He is risen from the dead: so the last error shall be worse than the first.
27:65		Pilate said unto them, Ye have a watch: go your way, make it as sure as ye can.
27:66		So they went, and made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone, and setting a watch.
28:1		In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.
28:2		And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.
28:3		His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:
28:4		And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men.
28:5		And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified.
28:6		He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.
28:7		And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you
28:8		And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word.
28:9		And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying, All hail. And they came and held him by the feet, and worshipped him.
28:10		Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: go tell my brethren that they go into Galilee, and there shall they see me.
Holy Bible, King James Version

This may be one most likely won't wish to pursue. Today is plan your epitaph day. It is a time to consider how you might wish to be remembered throughout eternity. You do this by planning that which you wish to be cut into your tombstone.

My dearly departed and beloved grandma Ida used to tell me she felt fortunate to have seen her headstone prior to her passing.

I remember it because it was one of those waining lucid moments we had prior to her total descent into Alzheimer's and the end of all conversation with someone I dearly loved.

Regardless of what we may wish for ourselves, eventually our time upon the earth will end. The end, like the beginning is a necessary part of the circle of life.

That monument to your existence you choose to leave behind will speak regarding you after your departure and you may wish to give the matter some thought prior while you may.

Perhaps a tombstone inscription, a brief written piece commemorating who you were and what you were all about, or even verbiage on a tomb or monument in your honor or memory.

In all attempts not to sound gruesome, happy Plan Your Epitaph Day !

I take it all very lightly and in stride. I am well aware of the inevitability and really have no particular designs on eternity ...

I will likely be cremated and scattered without a marker or columbarium — unless I decide to take the plunge later — on my piece of bottom land in the Hollow Creek community of Aiken County. Those plans of course may evolve prior to that time as well.

A human being may encounter worse ends.
 

Oh the memories of Easter in my childhood.

Mom was always one to scrub and dress us up for church most Sundays as I recall, but particularly around those holidays surrounding Christ and the signature events of christaindom.

There was chorus practice and presentations with which we were involved frequently during those days.

I dare say that I have not felt closer to God Almighty since my childhood and my mother's direct influence.

Palm Sunday aka Passion Sunday is a Christian feast that happens the Sunday before Easter.

Like the holiday of Easter itself the day moves around on the calendar. This year it falls on April 2.

This feast commemorates Christ's triumphal entry into Jerusalem which is found in each of the four canonical Gospels.

Palm Sunday is the first day of Holy Week and the Sunday prior to Easter.
