Hello, President Biden
Dear President Biden: I am just a concerned citizen and would just like to wish you a lot of luck in your new position as The President of the United States. Hate to say this about myself, but I am not a voter in political elections. I am one of those apathic people that just goes out everyday and does there jobs whatever that may be.

What I Know....
In my 'What I Know' articles I am going to start writing up my lecture notes from my Abnormal psychology course that I had taken when I was studying how to be a human service worker. My major was Human services and then I declared a minor in Psychology. This was a really fun class to go to and study. What is Abnormal psychology? As I progress through my notes we will learn what this subject is pretty much all about, and if anybody is interested I can do the same for a Psychopathology course as well. Again, I had this course in the early 21st century and I know there may be changes. This is just to give readers an introduction to what the course is generally about.

The BirchBark House
How many readers out there like Native American stories. Quite awhile ago I did find out that I am a little bit Native American from way back. One of my ancestors must have fell in love with a member of the Iroquis nation of Western Pennsylvania. I know that I am one who likes to read Native American stories for I just finished reading one children's/young adult novel entitled 'The Birchbark House' a story about the Ojibwa Indians. This is a story for all seasons and will teach us about how diverse Native Americans were during the historical periods of the Americas.

What I Know
iTotal Situation and Resources This is the last lecture that I had from my first Human services course. This will cover some approaches and some basics to counseling. There is a Systems Ecological Approach that is a perspective in how we as professionals see the world and that will effect your work with clients. You need to understand and seek the worldview of your clients and also allow you to preserve human dignity, respect the individual, value diversity and reach your and your clients full potential in life.

What I Know
Here are notes from a lecture in my Introduction to Human services course dealing with abuse and in particular Child Abuse and Elder Abuse. There are also many definitions that are covered in this lecture. We are getting close to the end of this course and I am thinking about writing my lecture notes for a few psychology courses I had along with my human services courses. There are this article and one more for my intro course then I will share my Abnormal psychology lecture notes. Abnormal psychology was a fun and very interesting course for really anyone to take or just read.

Little House in the Highlands
Who has read the children's book series by Laura Ingalls Wilder? I have read them as a child and now even as an adult and I enjoy them very much. The books by her are very much different yet the same as the 'Little House' television show back in the 1970's on NBC. The program was based on the series of books by Laura especially the one entitled 'On the Banks of Plum Creek' and some of the volumes in what are referred to as 'The Laura Years'.

My Poetry
This is a collection of my own poems that I wrote back when as a child and as an adult. The title that I think I want to use is 'Poems of Childhood and other Times'.

Good-bye Mr. President
Dear Mr. President: Just wanted to drop this note off to you for showing your spirit and your business acumen for the last four years. To be honest I did not really understand everything you said and done. You lead the country like one of your many businesses. It worked, but it didn't. Did you really have a consensus of all parties to do the things that were required of you or did you say "I am President Donald Trump and all must do what I want."
