Search for Meaning: April 2008
http://fab-searchformeaning.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 28, 2008. I often wonder how people can be marginalized, oppressed, abused so openly and without shame. I'm not sure why I wonder, because the truth is I already.we already know the answer. If you think of any people as "they" and think in stereotypes or hate, I challenge you! If all else fails, remember the golden rule."Do unto others". Sunday, April 27, 2008. That's why I remember the time). She thanked me for an extra 16 minutes, I hadn't even knowingly given her the extra 16 minutes...

Search for Meaning: Let's DO Something!
http://fab-searchformeaning.blogspot.com/2010/02/lets-do-something.html
Tuesday, February 16, 2010. This post is written specifically to those on Candlelight Vigil in Honor of Jennifer Daugherty, and anyone else who wants to make a substantial difference! Jennifer Daugherty has captured our hearts and rage against those who tortured and killed her, and I propose that in Jennifer's honor and to prevent these things from continuing to happen to others, everyone speaking out for Jennifer can make a difference in other ways as well. People with disabilities in addition to being ...

Thursday, February 18, 2010. Hell In a Hand Basket? My community is in an uproar, debates about death penalty abound and it seems that since news of Jennifer Daugherty's murder there have been numerous crimes in my hometown.a rapist dressed as a woman, a little boy broke a classmates wrist,we are on the news every night! It would be easy for me to become consumed by the chaos and hate currently swirling around me, but I can't. Tuesday, February 16, 2010. The press and media continue to largely ignore thi...

Wednesday, October 1, 2008. Of all Tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. Those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. I have always had a fondness of C.S. Lewis, but the other day I saw this quote and nearly fell over. I'm not sure who, if anyone in particular, Lewis was thinking of as he wrote this, but I find it to capture the tyranny. Finding this quote reminded me not to ge...

Thursday, August 13, 2009. Whether this or other issues are important to you, isn't it up to YOU to do something? None of us is helpless in any situation and haven't we yet learned the lessons of history? That even a few small voices can rise to deafening levels with enough passion and belief! Change can and does happen, but only when we stand up and make it happen. So call your legislatures, make creative solutions, or spread awareness, but whatever you do, please don't just sit there!

Search for Meaning: Sand Through the Hour Glass
http://fab-searchformeaning.blogspot.com/2009/06/sand-through-hour-glass.html
Wednesday, June 3, 2009. Sand Through the Hour Glass. Well, it has been a very long time since I posted anything. I didn't intend not to post, time just seems to have gotten away from me and with no spare time my creative juices have been running on short supply! But, what keeps popping into my head, as silly as it will sound, is some Miley Cyrus song (my kids love her, so I too am subjected to her music), and it says something about climbing a mountain, It's not about getting there, it's the journey....

Thursday, August 28, 2008. I have acquired a second job! My first job is awesome, and I think we are well compensated for our work-particularly as it is in human services, but no one will ever get rich in this field! With the economy the way that it is, our money just doesn't seem to stretch out quite enough, so I am now moonlighting as a waitress. I love it! The restaurant is amazing! The people are great! But this means I have less time for blogging. I will still post, and I have of course. People need...

Search for Meaning: Too Close to Home
http://fab-searchformeaning.blogspot.com/2010/02/too-close-to-home.html
Sunday, February 14, 2010. Too Close to Home. It was not by virtue of Jennifer's disability that she was "vulnerable," but by virtue of how this community and others view people with disability! The most common complaint of those with disabilities is that of loneliness, people with disabilities experience crime at double the rates of others. Why? Because we don't value people with disabilities! February 14, 2010 at 4:59 PM. February 14, 2010 at 9:02 PM. February 14, 2010 at 9:14 PM. Hell In a Hand Basket?

Wednesday, June 10, 2009. Don't believe that people with disabilities aren't valued? So at the end of the day, I get to come home and be seen, heard and known as a full human being and know that I am valued.but somewhere else there is a woman coming home to get used and abused, even though people suspect it.how valued does she feel?
