SOUL COLLISIONS

SOULS COLLIDE. IT'S PROOF THEY EXIST. THE COLLISION CAN PRODUCE LOVE. JOY.  HAPPINESS. SOMETIMES DESPAIR AND DARKNESS. UNPREDICTABLE, THOSE SOULS. BUMPING INTO ONE ANOTHER LIKE THAT.

MY GOD IS BIGGER THAN YOURS

MY GOD IS BIGGER THAN YOURS: WHEN RELIGION EMBRACES IDEOLOGY, ALL YOU GET IS STINK. SANCTIONED KILLINGS. RELIGIOUS BIGOTRY. MY GOD IS BIGGER AND BETTER THAN YOURS. IDOLATRY. THE SMELL OF SUPERIORITY.

PEEVER LAW #106

I WOULD HAVE NEVER THOUGHT AMERICA SO DUMB AS TO ELECT A COMPLETE FOOL FOR PRESIDENT.

THE BREAKDOWN OF COMMUNITY

     The breakdown of community: Our leadership has let us down. The board and CEO have wondered away from democratic rule, toward corporate rule, which is a far cry from democratic.

     They continue to make decisions about our future inappropriately behind closed doors, encouraged by the board president. Eight reasons to go into closed session.  As a “private club”, they can do whatever, which definitely needs to change.

     Short of becoming a municipality, we need a board that will adopt municipal rules to govern us. All the bylaws and proposed articles and declarations we have are designed to run Hot Springs Village as a corporation. I,  and I know there are many others, stand firmly against this. We need to vote for 3 candidates opposed to this direction. And a fourth person on the board to join them, which seems unlikely. We were once again duped the last election. All followers.

     I would sum up our current situation as a “convoluted mess.” The board lets the CEO do whatever she wants. Secret contracts. Secret salaries. Secret bonuses. All secrets. While we elect them, they are a far cry from transparent. They do as directed.

     Voting “NO” on the proposed articles and declaration will send a clear message to the board and CEO that we are having nothing of their proposed corporate rule. Corporations have their place, but not in running a community. We need to seek our independence. From them.

     And as for an orientation session, I would skip it if I were a candidate. It appears to be more of an indoctrination session. An attempt to intimidate and control the candidates even before they are elected.

     As for a recruitment committee, I would assume they are looking for the finest followers. Any candidate that comes out of this committee, beware.
