• Don’t believe rumors

    If you had to give one life-changing tip, what would it be?

    As someone currently being harassed because of this-don’t believe what a stranger says about a person you don’t know.

    Rumors are spread by stupid, ugly people with too much time on their hands. They sit around & come up with what they “think” is the Truth when they don’t know if or what actually happened to someone.

    I think it’s pathetic for grown bald men who look like they’d lure a child to their house to spread rumors.

    I’m a kind, open person with nothing to hide that this blog shows. If I’d give one place of advice-ask the person directly IF it’s true. But sad, lonely pathetic people don’t have the guts to do that. So be the bigger person & ask. You’ll soon discover how WRONG the rumor spreader is.

    Be a fucking grown up & don’t listen to what you think is true. Just ask. Don’t be flaming coward.

  • Common sense

    What’s a skill you consider basic, that most people don’t actually know how to do?

    I think common sense & respect have been lost in the wave of Maga & other political parties the last couple of years. It seems that people think that being rude is somehow a pride thing. Being Rude is Rude period. Like right now on this boat I’m sitting on there’s a bunch of arrogant, rude assholes. They are talking smack about everyone on the boat.

    It’s actually sad that people(tourists) think that this type of behavior is acceptable. Because frankly it’s Not. Oh & common sense has gone out the window along with rudeness. How pathetic as a society we’ve become. That we can’t show mutual respect to others. Or that we know how to board ferries. What’s happening to us?

  • What’s a song lyric that has stuck with you forever?

    I first heard the song over 30 years ago but as things have shifted it has taken on new meaning. The US has changed so much since I was a kid there in the 1980’s.

    Manhattan Skyline is a really good song about things shifting & changing. It’s also about New York City; a city I hold close to my heart.

    It’s about a bad break up & leaving NYC. The lyrics really have spoken to me for a long time. Because of all the people I left behind to move back to Norway. How a skyline sticks with you, when the band wrote this there was still the Twin Towers.

    Manhattan Skyline is & can be about many things. For me the hardest line in the song is about not trying in a relationship. How you stand & wave good bye to someone you may not see again. A chance of a lifetime to see new horizons on the front page a picture of Manhattan Skyline.
