Today's random musings....

I am not happy that Lorne has been moved to SDCC.  The phone system sucks there...and I mean sucks.  But my bigger concern is for Lorne's mental state. 

Today I got his latest blog update (I will get it posted this weekend for everyone to read) it highlighted just how deeply he feels about the injustice he sees all around him.  The sad part is, he is right. 

I knew that being sent south would be hard on him since he really considers Las Vegas to be his adopted home.  Nothing is the same anymore for him and he feels that all that time he spent there was wasted and that all he has is his memories of the place.  If he was here this is what I would tell him....

Everything changes, nothing stays the same.  It is not natural for you to expect that Las Vegas would stay the same.  Putting Las Vegas in a time capsule is not fair to you nor to the city itself...a city you love and want to be in when you get out.  Instead of mourning the loss of your favorite casinos, think of all the new casinos that you will be able to explore and learn about.  In the same way that people change and grow, cities do as well.  Certainly your current location is not what you think is ideal but perhaps it is the God's way of forcing you to acknowledge that even while you are incarcerated, life is still going on around you.  Perhaps they are forcing you to acknowledge that which scares you the most...that you are scared that the world is passing you by and there isn't a damned thing you can do about it.  Perhaps they are trying to tell you that They, not you decide your fate...yes, you can make choices but in the end, you have a destiny that must be fulfilled and They will make sure that you do that. 

It is time for you to embrace your fears my love...you aren't alone.
