That Much . . .

Whenever you call me
And I’m not on the phone,
If you have a problem
And you find me at home,
You know you can
Count on me that much.

If you said you need me,
Just a couple days, I’m there.
I’ll drop what I’m doing
If it’s something I don’t care about
You can count on me that much.

Ours is just like one of those fairytales.
Ours is just like one of those shows.
One thing bout our love that’s different;
It’s not a love that grows.

I’ll always be with you
When there’s nothing else to do.
When everyone’s busy
There’ll be only me and you.
It’s clear you can count on me that much.

Would you say it’s all you’ve been hoping for?
Would you really prefer something new?
Where else would you get this much
Attention devoted to you?

So don’t think you’re not special.
You’re kind of special to me.
There’s no one else like you.
Well maybe there’s just two or three.
Be sure you can count on me that much.

That Much

It's All About . . .

. . . ME . . .

(from https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/trump-visits-puerto-rico_us_59d3640de4b0655781554854)
". . . He said officials “can be very proud” of the low death toll so far and told residents to “have a good time.”. . . "congratulating them and boasting almost two weeks after Hurricane Maria left many of the island’s 3.4 million people without power, water or food. . . lavishly praised them. . . then repeatedly turned to individuals around the table and invited them to offer their own praise — while insisting, “It’s not about me.”. . . lauded officials and minimized the hurricane’s damage, suggesting it was not “a real catastrophe like Katrina.” . . . “Sixteen people versus in the thousands,” Trump said. appeared to joke about the cost of the storm damage. . . “I hate to tell you, Puerto Rico, but you’ve thrown our budget a little out of whack,” he said. . . repeatedly bragged about his administration’s response to the hurricane’s devastation, blamed the U.S. territory of Puerto Rico for its debt crisis and called Cruz (mayor of San Juan)“nasty” for criticizing the federal government’s sluggish relief efforts. . . attacked the island’s residents and leaders, saying they wanted “everything to be done for them” after Cruz begged for additional aid. . . contends his administration has done a “great job with the almost impossible situation.” . . . lauded the federal response, despite the continued suffering of residents and criticism from officials like Cruz. . . In Texas and Florida, we get an A-plus. And I’ll tell you what, I think we’ve done just as good in Puerto Rico, and it’s actually a much tougher situation.” . . . praised officials for doing “a fantastic job,” as people showed him the storm’s damage to their homes, pointing out broken windows and noting power outages. . . “We’re going to help you out,” he told them. “Have a good time.” . . . During a stop at a church, he threw rolls of paper towels into a crowd. . . The Federal Emergency Management Agency has shipped millions of gallons of water and meals to Puerto Rico, but the island no longer has the infrastructure to widely deliver those supplies. Puerto Rican officials said last week that they were unable to move aid across the island without electricity and fuel. . . Still, almost all of Puerto Rico is without electricity, and about half the population lacks drinking water.

Revisiting . . .

. . . Available . . .

Everything really is negotiable
Though your initial look may betray
So big and frig
owhtening they may appear
Your dedication and intellect take the day

There's one thing you have to remember
You mean so much to me
That's one certainty
When concerns become burdens
Please know I'm the one you need to see
I will always be available
No matter how far life removes you from me

There's no necessity for extreme bravery
All your good qualities I admire
There's no embarrassment and there's no shame
If you accept someone's helping hand when you tire

There's one thing you have to remember
You mean so much to me
That's one certainty
When concerns become burdens
Please know I'm the one you need to see
I will always be available
No matter how far life removes you from me

Any other time
Any other place
Nothing between us will be any different
You don't have to hide
Feelings deep inside
I'm here to help you so please let me try

You may not understand
You may not care
I know you'll realize what's to bear
I always felt that my responsibility
Is to make sure you find happiness anywhere

There's one thing you have to remember
You mean so much to me
That's one certainty
When concerns become burdens
Please know I'm the one you need to see
I will always be available
No matter how far life removes you from me

Two . . .

. . . things. . .

. . . that I think many people don't fully examine when they're listening to conservative candidates speak are:

1. Do you want to COMPLETELY neglect anyone (or everyone) in society who are not YOU or your immediate family?

2. Although the size of the national debt is incomprehensible to you (as it well is to me), do you really think that when these people talk about lower TAXES that they really intend to lower YOUR taxes?

For Me? . . .

(from the writings of The Rev. Howard Bess**)
" . . . Is there anything in the Lazarus story for me? My answer is “yes.” I cannot get past “Unbind him and set him free.” This is the great mission of devoted followers of Jesus. We are to help set people free from superstitious beliefs, destructive behavior, harmful habits and selfish patterns of living. The life of the follower of Jesus is neither inactive nor passive. No human being should live in bondage of any kind. I can think of no more exciting life than a life given to setting others free. . ."

** The Rev. Howard Bess is a retired American Baptist minister, who lives in Palmer, Alaska. His email address is hdbss@mtaonline.net.

Do You Know. . .

. . . me?

Why do I feel that it's all about me
That no matter what happens
I must get my fee
The most wonderful people
One could possibly meet
If I have any say
Remain under my feet

I put on a good show
Always get in my say
Make it lengthy as possible
Then just go on my way

I feign great concern
Pretend caring affection
Make the people on top
Fail to make the connection
That would help them to see
That I always come first
In all things, situations

And no matter what happens
Good or bad comes to be
The one standing constant
Like an old redwood tree
Is I'll always be there
Off'ring generous attentions
But the fact still remains
That it's all about me
