The pocket watch left by time's arrow

-
I saw a pocket watch
Left on a park table
Next to some keys 
I didn't touch them 
I thought the owner was nearby
But as the moments passed 
No one came to claim them
I walked away and carried on my business 
But I will always wonder 
If that watch 
And those keys 
Were left for me

Common nutrient supplementation may hold the answers to combating Alzheimer's disease Alzheimer’s Disease currently affects 6 million Americans today. As a matter of fact, Alzheimer’s Disease and other forms of dementia are the leading cause of death in England and Wales.

There is a higher rate of Alzheimer’s Disease amongst females. This study was performed on female mice who were bred to develop Alzheimer’s Disease like symptoms.

As I was outside enjoying the sweltering  heat , I started off eavesdropping in on his conversation. He commented on the state of our Gross National Product. He ended up sitting down at my table.We started off with polite banter: the pros and cons of joining certain chambers and networking groups. Blah blah blah. But then we talked about our families. Where we migrated from. How different the times are now. We talked about our mixed children and the struggles they had (have) growing up in Placer County. We talked about dirt roads, gang violence, and tattoos. It was one of the greatest conversations I've ever had with a random stranger. And I loved it. Thank

"Injustice anywhere is a threat to  justice  everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly." – Dr. Martin Luther King Today the Mayor of Sacramento, Mayor Darrell Steinberg and Sacramento Police Chief Daniel Hahn knelt in solidarity with protesters at the Oak Park Community Center who gathered in solidarity to voice their dissent and disgust at the senseless death of George Floyd at the hands of Minneapolis law enforcement. Many applauded the kneeling gesture, noting its symbolism during this difficult time. While other police chiefs around the country are seen hugging, kneeling, and shaking hands with protestors, the media is quick to document these counterfeit gestures as moments of understanding and unification. However, intention without action has been the modus operandi of all in power for keeping the status quo. George Floyd’s murder has erupted riots
