It has been quite a month, yet again. There is never ever a dull moment.
I have been continuing commitments at the Daily Outsider as I have been pushing away on some key long-term plans. This was also a week that I'm remembering my late Aunt, Mahroo Pourarien (Pearson) that played such a pivotal role in my life--and I released a contribution to Mom's Against Poverty in her memory. I also worked on doing some minor long-delayed "tweaks' to a long-delayed Personal Social Media Profiles.
It has also been a busy month as I crisscrossed my beautiful State of California and grateful to the team at Google captured this for me:
It was quite distressing to see the burnt lands as the burning continues even today.
As I was out & about for the month, I got a chance to do a virtual audition for 25-Word or Less--It was fun to participate in it.

As I close out my Mid-Month Thoughts, I'm listening to an interview on Iran-E-Farda. I am in awe at the courage of the young man speaking with a one year old daugther on how he's speaking out against the tyranny of the Islamic Republic--I salute him for his courage--I am just in awe. How Iran has such beautiful people as Iran has been held hostage by evil.
I close out with this very compelling thought as I remain hopeful for the future in spite of it all:
