Outsider . . .


(from Bernie Sanders)
". . . About two decades ago, long before I ever imagined I would campaign for the presidency, I wrote a book titled Outsider in the House about how we used the authority extended from my electoral victories to make changes for the better in the lives of people who don’t have many allies in positions of power. My decision to run for president was inspired by the events outlined in that book, and if you really want to understand what this campaign is about and how we will leverage our political revolution to create real change after I’m elected, then you should read it. Because I think it’s important, I want to try something pretty wild here:  For a very limited time, make a contribution to our campaign — of any amount — and we’ll send you a recently released updated version of my book, now titled Outsider in the White House. . . "


YOU IN???

Bucket . . .

. . .  list . . .


. . . I have many times felt an aversion to certain popular buzzwords, jargon, lingo. . . whatever you want to call it.  As an adolescent I always thought the words 'girlfriend' and 'boyfriend' carried a demeaning or minimalizing connotation;  as in "you and your little girlfriend."  One of my latest semantic pet peeves is the term 'bucket list.'  I understand its meaning. I appreciate the humor in it. I just don't really like.  And I do not have one.  Other words suffice very well, thank you. . . words like 'goal', 'objective', 'desire', 'need' or 'WANT' . . .


. . . and right now I really, really WANT. . .


. . . the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference.

Groucho Marx said. . .

. . . (among many other hilarious things) . . . "I don't care to belong to a club that accepts people like me as members."

MEMBER OF THE CLUB

Who doesn't want to belong to something; a need that's bigger than us. You feel it deep in your heart, desire for attention; a little trust; a little trust. Now I'm a member of the club and I'm not really sure how far it will get me. And I'm not really sure how far I will go.

I felt it so many times, that yearning to be a part of it all. I couldn't understand why I didn't fit into your kind of style; your kind of style. Now I'm a member of the club and I'm not really sure how far it will get me. And I'm not really sure how far I will go.

I'm an outsider from so long ago; a solo performer on my own road, on my own road.

Why so much serious doubt consumes me I can't begin to describe. Just when I thought that I found a greater confidence I want to hide, I want to hide. Now I'm a member of the club and I'm not really sure how far it will get me. And I'm not really sure how far I will go.
