This is what I hate about the GOP. It's not everyone but there's enough. They really need to overhaul their culture if they want to get people of color and other religions to vote for them.
However, I can't in good conscience join a party that supports legalized abortion. So, I pick the lesser evil. Afterall, who is really meaner - the one who murders or the one who disrespects?

The Pursuit of Happiness
Then there're homeworks and projects, birthdays and holidays, changing seasons that punctuate the routine until it's another year - a time to reset the online banking payment schedule and reorder drugs. So, what makes me happy? At that point, I didn't know. I didn't have any desires for myself because there's neither time nor energy left.
But I realized there are stuff that keeps me from being sad: the absence of sickness, having a job, receiving Holy Communion, intimacy with my wife, the laughter of my kids, a job well done, my dog jumping at my arrival, new readers of my blog, spraying the roaches dead, friends, Scotch and Prime Rib, gardening in the sun, Sashimi and Sake, losing weight, working out in the company gym ... and so on. I just enjoyed them without thinking. I don't intend to organize these in an essay right now; it's more of a sharing. But here are some ideas about happiness that I have kept in the back burner. I hope you realize what makes you happy; then that'll double the pleasure and double the fun.
Most people are about as happy as they make up their minds to be. Abraham Lincoln
If you want happiness for an hour — take a nap.
If you want happiness for a day — go fishing.
If you want happiness for a year — inherit a fortune.
If you want happiness for a lifetime — help someone else.
Chinese Proverb
Action may not always bring happiness; but there is no happiness without action. Benjamin Disraeli
That man is richest whose pleasures are cheapest. Henry David Thoreau
