Sad Todays, Sad Tomorrows

 

Being sad

Together with Joy

Can be fine

My Sadness these days

Links to my Grief

My Regrets,

Recognizing

Both:

My recent and accumulated Failures

as well how things have Not Grown

They’ve atrophied far, far too much

For me (at least).

As I move forward

Over the Coming

Days, weeks, months, and even years

I hope tht I will do better

I hope that I will find much more

of the personal and interpersonal

Beauties of a Life – well Lived

The craziness of the Outside Worlds

Deeply Impacts me

Feeling slivers of the Hurts

of So Many

Hatred and Fear –

Tied to Super-Wealthy

(mostly) white men

Cracks, but hopefully will not

Break too many

People, who already

have suffered- far- far- far too much

Hopefully we will succeed!

I’m trying

The Grief will likely Remain

The Sadness  - rubs through me Deeply

Thanks!

Judaism - Israel - Palestine - All Eleven Parts Together (Warning - Very Long) (Graphics didn't Copy Over)

  As I begin this writing, MSNBC’s (muted) screen says: Trump, What’s Happening to Me is a Form of Navalny  (or similar) That, perhaps is a metaphor for this writing!   A Most Privileged white man, who sees himself as “THE Victim”.   This man lives in fear – manipulated and bullied by his father.   His Sadism and Narcissism – and its Impact upon so many others reflects – both his Incredible Privilege, as well as Anger and Hatred – arising out of his fears, most of which I know little or nothing about.  (5:35 a.m. – Wednesday, February 21, 2024) --- Judaism, My Judaism – its impact upon me is, I hope, an interesting story.   This is a personal story.   You, the reader, can jump ahead and learn more about me at any time if you go to Part I – of this writing – where I began writing – at:  Judaism-Israel-Palestine: Part I – at:  https://www.georgemarx.org/2024/01/judaism-is...

Big Girls Don't Cry

BIG GIRLS DON'T CRY My father (Menachem) Imanuel Marx died Friday, November 13, 1964, when I was 13 years old.    My mother woke my brother and I up with the news early that morning.    We went to the hospital and saw him for the last time. I didn’t cry then.       Daniel and I went to school that day.   I didn’t tell anyone. Two days later at the funeral, I was still being “a man” (i.e. not crying).   Until I was in my second men’s group around age 31, I didn’t allow myself to cry .    I rationalized this by saying to myself:   “ How does x compare with the death of my father ?”. I am self-identified as a   Jewish man .    Growing up that meant being intellectual and not emotional .    Our Sabbath dinner was the only time in the week, when we couldn’t read at the table.    While I was “schooled” on feelings through my men’s work (, most significantly through helping co-found M...
