Off the Hook
May take a break from blogging this week. Work is kicking my butt. Don't feel very well, either. And for another thing, it's one of those times when the general foolishness of collective humanity just irks the hell out of me, to the point that I don't want to comment or even think about it all. Rather just curl up with a good book in a cozy, sunlit corner and let the world roll on by.
I know exactly what you mean. Seems like the world is goin' downstream without a paddle - and no one cares that we're all headed for the falls. And not even a paddle will save us now!
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is discord, harmony; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; where there is sadness, joy. Grant that I may seek not so much to be consoled as to console; to be understood as to understand; to be loved as to love. For it is in giving that we receive; it is in pardoning that we are pardoned; and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen.

We cannot all do great things, but we can do small things with great love.
and welcome to the Blue Truck, a blog for mature gay men with news and views on gay rights, history, art, humor, and whatever comes to mind. Plus a few hot men. The truck's all washed and gassed up, so hop in buddy, let's go.
CAUTION: For mature gay men only beyond this point. Some posts and links may not be suitable for children or the unco guid. You have been warned.

My Story
click photograph to read
Churches say that the expression of love in a heterosexual monogamous relationship includes the physical, the touching, embracing, kissing, the genital act - the totality of our love makes each of us grow to become increasingly godlike and compassionate. If this is so for the heterosexual, what earthly reason have we to say that it is not the case with the homosexual?
It is a perversion if you say to me that a person chooses to be homosexual. You must be crazy to choose a way of life that exposes you to a kind of hatred. It's like saying you choose to be black in a race-infected society.
If God, as they say, is homophobic, I wouldn't worship that God.

Enjoy the break.
Yes, enjoy unplugging for a bit.
Enjoy the silence!
I feel you Russ. My allergies and the pollen in the air is killing me. Catch you later Bud.

Just remember -- This, too, shall pass. Hope you are catching your breath and will be back in the saddle soon.
Take care.
Thanks guys.

Oh boy, me too - and we've got an election next week so there's even more stupidity than usual!
Russ,
I'll miss you...Don't stay away too long.
Hang in there, Russ and get a little R & R. Sending a hug your way.
Hope all is well.
Thanks Frank. De-stressing is taking a little longer than anticipated.
