If I had known that I would need mountain climbing gear in this life I would have gone shopping! Of course I also think it is important what is on the other side but this song really sums up my feelings right now.
Every step I'm takin'
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking
But I gotta keep trying
Gotta keep my head held high
There's always gonna be another mountain,
I'm always gonna to wanna make it move
Always gonna be an uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
It's the climb

Decline of the Human Race
The world, morals, everything is just decaying right in front of our eyes. It really is quite sad.
Iowa Supreme Court Upholds Gay Marriage

DES MOINES, Iowa -- The Iowa Supreme Court said on Friday that the state's same-sex marriage ban violates the constitutional rights of gay and lesbian couples, making it the third state where gay marriage is legal.
In a unanimous ruling issued Friday, the court upheld a 2007 Polk County District Court judge's ruling that the law violated the state constitution.
The case stems from a 2005 lawsuit filed by Lambda Legal, a New York-based gay rights organization. The group filed a lawsuit on behalf of six gay and lesbian Iowa couples who were denied marriage licenses.
The suit named then-Polk County recorder and registrar Timothy Brien.
The Polk County attorney's office claimed that Hanson's ruling violated the separation of powers and the issue should be left to the Legislature.

Let’s talk: Wife handcuff’s herself to husband
Cops say she attempted to reconcile with him, and allegedly bit him, too
FAIRFIELD, Conn. - Police in Connecticut say a woman attempting to reconcile with her husband handcuffed herself to him as he slept and then bit him on his torso and arms.
Police say 37-year-old Helen Sun told them she wanted to have a conversation with husband Robert Drawbough without him leaving. Police say she changed the locks on their bedroom and handcuffed herself to Drawbough while he was sleeping Monday.
Drawbough used a cell phone to call police. Officers heard his screams when they arrived at the couple's Fairfield home. He was treated at a local hospital.
Police charged Sun with third-degree assault, disorderly conduct, reckless endangerment and unlawful restraint. She was due in Bridgeport Superior Court on Tuesday.

Lesson
I'm all for lessons. When it is someone else that is learning the lesson. Me, not so much. Of course some lessons are fun and enjoyable and quick. I like those lessons. Unfortunately, I don't get those very often. Mainly because I am thick headed and stubborn. If you repeat that I will deny it.
Anyway, lessons. And of course the people that are brought into your life to help you learn those lessons. You know those people that are thrown into your path because well they have to be so that you will learn your lesson. Sometimes you may not even know that is why they were in your life even after they are gone. I can think of a few in my past that were in my life and after they were gone it was so blatantly obvious that they were one of those lesson people that it just hurt when I smacked my head with the epiphany.
Then of course there are those people that are in your life and all of a sudden a great big light goes off and you realize that the reason that they are annoying you is because they are in the process of being used as one of those lessons. You like this person, but OY are they really going out of their way to just rub stuff in your face and be annoying.
I think the answer is yes because you weren't paying attention in the first place and God had to up the anty so to speak.
All I have to say is I really wish I would pay more attention to what I am supposed to learn and just learn it all ready.
