    to the future, yet unknown, though for some it’s set in stone. To the road, stretching out ahead, or simply, around the bend… @RnbwCuntry

    How much we miss in just a day, so much to see, so much to say, a day away, only one day, away.

    The heart knows, the mind resists. #sixwords

    Back at home, where sanity prevails, and the trials of work fade and pale, at least for the remainder of today… @RnbwCuntry

    Got to go, books to read, dreams to dream, and promises, to keep. #goodnight

    It is that time of week, and day, a time for us to play, do the deed, #FF is today.

    Little lies are sometimes better, than little truths. #thought

    My friends that overwhelm, are those, who seldom sell. #thought

    Gauge success by the mounting count of our shortcomings. #thought

    A single loss teaches us more than a dozen victories. #thought

    The things we choose to call ourselves matter not a whit, what matters, is what others hear, and the titles they grant twits. #thought

    One of my favorite things to tell my kids, when they look at me askance, is this – You have no idea how funny I think I am!

    Humor: hider of those little slights, healer of the smaller wounds. The scar-tissue, of words at play, so easily gone astray. #thought

    For those that would like a change of pace, and a chance to see a lovely face, my daughter http://www.maxim.com/hometown-hotties/dannielle-athens-oh … Please vote for her. RT!

    There is a use for Facebook! It shows a timeline of my tweets, with all my idle chatter stripped away. https://www.facebook.com/Author.CGAyling

    How is it that debts accrue, no matter what we seem to do. #thought

    Memories remain. Memories, of mine… These, are the memories that define. ~ My personal blog post and poem, on #PTSD http://bit.ly/CGAptsd

    What a sad fate is this to be torn from Twitter, so remiss. {Off on a business trip.}

    Make no mistake, Malmaxa is a complex tale with a full Glossary. http://bit.ly/CGbM1g Seems some readers don’t realize it’s there.

    Our yesterdays all lead to today, but where will today take us? #thought

    Absolute power is never absolute, it’s an illusion that will inevitably pass. #thought

    The problem with pictures, is context – without context images can mislead as much as inform. #thought

    If you truly believe that, then every life is preordained and nothing anyone does, or doesn’t do, matters. I don’t believe that. @AchtooTsz

    Cast kind words to soothe, not questions that intrude. #thought

    Corrupt elders corrupt the young, till the young age and learn truth for themselves, Then they choose, and are elders, or free. #thought

    So many words, hidden within words, so many layers, till we see. #thought

    The problem with evidence that requires an expert’s eye, is that the expert’s eye, can lie. #thought

    Sleep, stealer of time, granter of dreams. She takes away hours, and gives you a glimpse of eternity. #goodnight http://bit.ly/CGAptsd

    Scars, tough protectors of the flesh, tender shields about our memories. Scars, insensitive within the flesh, easily torn from our soul.

    Sometimes we hide things with deliberate intent, others, we find things, we never thought we said. #thought

    Some memories, I wish I could forget, and yet, without them, would I still be me? #thought

    Twitter: the place for those who think.

    You can fake it for a while, but insincerity will get you, every single time. #thought

    How rude am I to begin my day without wishing every father, a Happy Father’s Day!

    And now to cast Twitter aside for a while, in favor of a blog post for those things more ponderous than 140.

    Were I to die today, I’d leave my children my love, for what better thing, than returning to them, that which they give so freely, to me.

    Happy Fathers' Day, from one father, to every other, everywhere. https://cgayling.com/malmaxa/2013/06/fathers-day-2013/ …

    Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder – my thoughts on this debilitating, yet vital ailment. http://bit.ly/CGAptsd

    Another work week begun, and no, it ain’t gonna be fun.

    If you think you can’t effect change, then you can’t and they’ve already won. #thought

    The tragedy, is that so many of us think life must surely be better for everyone else, yet is it only better, for very few. @littleearthbird

    What @Twitter needs – an “Acknowledge” button that can’t be scripted. “Favorite” and “I read your comment” are definitely not the same.

    Battles are things I once strove to win, now hindsight grants me better vision, and make me doubt I’ll ever battle, again. @joypathall

    Angels, hidden in a devil’s eye.

    Before you condemn, consider. #thought

    Love, to be freely granted, never compelled. #thought

    The meek deserve compassion, not derision. #thought

    A horribly hectic week drawn to a close, time to put up my feet, and doze.

    Well, the putting up my feet part is true, since I’ll be climbing trees killed by the Emerald Ash Borer, and cutting them down.

    The only ones left un-scared by war, are war’s instigators, for they are the ones who never enter the fray. #thought

    While there is a time for kindness, and a time for truth, the truthful should always strive to be kind. #thought

    Equality is the birthright right of every person – no exceptions, no excuses. #thought

    what a delightful, un-obvious question @TorontoLydia Some truths are inherently cruel, while some people are inherently kind. @Hvnsglow

    What cruelty would it be, to make the kind proclaim cruel truths. Truth, it seems, is not absolute. #thought

    How does one thank those to whom thanks are due, when they are many, and you, are less than few… #thought

    Where, have all the good looks gone, gone from people, every one… save a very very few, and of that few, not one will share. #thought

    At lunch today my wife asked “Do you suffer from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder?” As I blinked away a tear, and hid, I knew, I did and do.

    In war are no winners, only the vanquished, and the victims. #thought

    The puppet masters pull our strings, they make us dance, while they laugh, and sing.

    The real cost of education, is to the country foolish enough to deny it to its citizens. #thought

    Those dwelling in darkness, forever aspire to the light, while those trapped in the sun, forever seek the shade.#thought

    Might tolerance be the greatest gift any mortal can bestow? #thought

    I hate it when I have to pick up the pace, and it isn’t the picante. Got to speed up my #FF, or I’ll never be done…

    statistics never lie – they just show you a fractional view of what might be true. @Arkanaloth @ingen1ous

    Profound, both for theist, and atheist alike. RT @shameeba Let go and let God.

    Embrace the lies the media inflates, or not. #thought

    And with that, my weekly #FF, is done. I hope it’s been fun. Might repeat, next week, but then again, I might not.

    Sometimes I’m a little obscure… “All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.” from “1984” by George Orwell.

    #FF is so difficult, got to wonder if I should do it. I really don’t want to pollute people timelines, so if it offends, please say.

    Now that the fun of #FF is done, I want to share a few of the thoughts I had while perusing the timelines of my fellow luna-tweeks.

    and so, @amiegallette what groveling must one do, to squeeze a review http://artz3.wordpress.com/2013/06/07/book-review-beltamars-war-malmaxa-by-c-g-ayling/ … from one so special, as you? 🙂

    Got to love @akmakansi she tells it like it is, in a great yet kind way. If you’re “marketing” on Twitter, read this http://artz3.wordpress.com/2013/06/11/five-ways-to-get-me-to-not-read-your-book/ …

    Time dilutes memories, of pain while crystallizing the memories we cherish. #thought

    Though I don’t know what I seek, I believe it lies far from where I am. #thought

    “The sensation of warm wet mud squishing between her toes brought childhood memories rushing back.” – http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0054RFWU2

    A flow, or a flood, either way when inspiration comes, it often washes us clean away. #thought

    Introducing Genetically Modified Organisms into food supplies {GMO sounds so cute!} – who could possibly think this is a good idea? #thought

    How easy it is, to comprehend simple, elegant truths. ~ RT @katwomanfifi Human foresight is usually short-sighted.

    Shackled souls, can be happy, while that are bound, would be free. #thought

    Humans, social beings, whose social skills decline. #thought

    I received a manuscript request for Blind Sight – http://bit.ly/CGAsBS and actually hesitated before sending it in. #ASMSG

    I think I must have lost my mind, if anyone finds it, please keep it in a cool dark place so it thinks it is home. #later

    Inspiration: I’ll take it any way it comes.

    One of the most powerful things about social media is it’s ability to eliminate distance as a factor in friendship. #thought

    Cherish children, I do, do you? #thought

    Since caring costs so little, one wonders why so few, seem too. #thought

    What defines a real man? Power, or presence, character, or charisma? Whatever it is, I do know this. A real man doesn’t himself so define.

    You might get seven days, you might get one, it all depends, if you look like fun. #followback #ido

    My motivation, my dear, was to see what might bring a tear, to the gorgeous green eyes, of one so fair. {a poem, for @amiegallette)

    The true cost of prosecuting pointless foreign wars – a nation beyond bankrupt, and reduced to mortgaging the futures of its children. #sad

    Tender or firm, a touch and squeeze never fails to please. #thought

    Some things are so wrong, nothing can make them right. #thought

    The presumption of innocence – a principle we should hold sacrosanct. In taping private conversations, the government oversteps its bounds.

    Citizens should never trust their government, until given cause. Governments should’nt distrust their citizens, until given cause. #thought

    If it’s all about me, not much room left for we. #thought

    The thing that differentiates you, is your character, not your clothing. #thought

    I hate posting downer type tweets on my daughters birthday – but she deserves a better future than being watched by government creeps.
