LOOKING OUT TO SEA"
I lived in South Texas on a peninsula protruding into the Gulf of Mexico in the fishing villages of Fulton and Rockport. I took the photo one foggy day 9 years ago. When I lived there the tropical birds that occupied the coast became my friends and my comfort zone as they seemed to pose for me on many occasions. I have so many personal photos of the beautiful birds of South Texas. I wanted to share with my friends on Vocal.

"SCAMMERS & IMPOSTERS"
I am attaching a short 15-minute video that explains the new scams in 2024. We speak of AI and how that affects people, but we need to expose these celebrity scammers and all scammers to everyone and continue to write stories regarding these omnipotent, malicious scam gangsters.

"CREATING LIGHT"
CREATING LIGHT THE DARKNESS OVERWHELMS SOCIETY This is a poem I wrote today about a brief encounter with an old flame of yesteryear. It was a very brief encounter, but I left with PTSD in the subconscious that I had to express by writing about the brief encounter. There are covert narcissists and malignant narcissists. I get irritated and move forward to not give them control now or in the future. I forgive, but I do not forget. I am an empath.

"MASLOV'S HEIRARCHY OF NEEDS"
This is a story about Maslov’s hierarchy of needs of human motivation. Maslov’s hierarchy of needs is a pyramid very similar to a corporation hierarchy. This theory says there are many of us human beings living on the bottom rung of the ladder of the pyramid. Many people are barely surviving the physiological needs of surviving with food, water, air, shelter, and sleep. The people living on the self-actualization for personal growth, fulfillment, and a realization of one’s potential can seem out of reach for people on the bottom rung of the pyramid. A low-income person struggles to make ends meet, feed their family, and attend to their needs as the self-actualization of their life has been squashed due to being extremely tired, high rent, bills, and groceries. As our high inflation erupts society, I feel sad because I know how they feel. However, I studied Mid-Management in college in the 1970s. I was at the beginning of the woman power movement of self-actualization.

"THE DRAGON WALKS BESIDE ME AS A WOMAN"
The Dragon Beside Me I never thought I would see a dragon in my life, let alone have one as my companion. But there she was, a magnificent creature of scales and fire, resting beside me on the beach. She had saved me from the vampires attacking my person, and since then, we have been inseparable.

"VIRTUAL REALITY LOVE"
This is a poem, a story about two twin souls meeting online at an older age. They live far apart but not in their hearts. There are many stories of romances online in 2024. Not all romances online are scams. I believe in love again even at the age of 74. I have an old rock n roll heart. Rock on through the music and time of space and internet lines.

'SURVIVAL OF THE TRUTH'
This is reflection of a true story in the week of the summer solstice moon upon arrival in LA June 16, 2016. Now I can reflect as I need to sing again, love again, and talk to my angels of light. I rode the train back to LA, through many miles over mountains and deserts. I kissed the ground when I got back to LA.
