What is the most important thing to carry with you all the time?
I would say the most important thing I carry is a sense of humor because if you can find levity in the absurdity we live in you’re absolutely going lose your mind.

What change, big or small, would you like your blog to make in the world?
When I started the blog, the idea was to have three generations of authors, a Boomer, Gen X and a millennial so everyone had their view of topics based from their point on the timeline. So far my millennial has dropped out so I am looking for someone to contribute that is a millennial. The only points of view so far are from my father who was born in 1945 and mine born in 1967.

What Ifs…
Dwain Northey (Gen X)
It is narrow minded and egocentric to just imagine an alternate reality for just yourself, unless all your imagined string of the infinite multiverse is that you have unlimited resources or were born into a different family or ethic group. Those things seem to me to be the only alternate realities that would not impact the whole of society.
If you are someone that believes that there are innumerable strings of reality. In physics, string theory is a theoretical framework in which the point-like particles of particle physics are replaced by one-dimensional objects called strings. String theory describes how these strings propagate through space and interact with each other. This in theory would create different realities on each individual string, some very similar and others very different.
The string that I would like to exist on is a string that in the evolution of mankind greed and borders were a concept that happened. In that reality mankind would understand that all life in this spinning blue ball was connected and war and prejudice are counterproductive.
The dystopian reality we live in has from the beginning pitted one against another for any number of reasons. Our current reality has spent uncounted resources on destroying others that share the same DNA structure but don’t share the same skin color or believe in the same deity. Image a reality where all those resources went to solve problems, cure diseases, lift up your fellow man instead of keeping them down.
That is the alternate universe I want to live in.

What’s the most money you’ve ever spent on a meal? Was it worth it?
I recall at Jazzfest in 2005 going to Emrils in New Orleans and ordering Blackened Sea Bass that was $85.00, honestly all I know is how much it cost don’t remember how it tasted … So the company I was with was enjoyable but the food wasn’t worth the cost .

I am sure I am not the only person that doesn’t even know what Joy is anymore. I have never done anything that gave me such a dopamine rush that I so much elation that I continue to go back to that activity to satisfy that feeling. I wouldn’t describe myself as unhappy but I not genuinely happy either but comfortably uncomfortable. I wish there was something that elicited for feeling of joy but I don’t think I have felt that since I was a small child. The world has beaten most of us down and joy seems very hard to find.
Please let me know if I am unique or if anyone else feels this way…
