Good morning Col Burroughs and Posse. Sometimes nothing at all makes sense to us. The more information we have the less it seems to go together. All we can do is take things on faith and trust that in the long run they will unfold as they are meant to. Trying to impose logic on nonlogical events and actions is nothing but frustration and a waste of time.

COL Mikel Burroughs good read/share: for the Colonel's Motivational Quotes of the Day. Where the mighty American Bald Eagles roam in the mighty ROCKY MOUNTAINS OF CASTLE ROCK, COLORADO AMONG THEER EAGLES-NEST. I know the view must be MAGNIFICIENT on this day December 22, 2020 as you might glance upon the mighty snowcapped mountains headed into the New Year 2020. As you know I would respond a lot throughout the week, but I am full-time DOD employee doing contracts for the Defense Contracting Management Agency. It is good to have some time on my break to respond my friend.

Good “Tuesday” Morning “Burroughs’ Posse Leader from the brightening skies of Greater Boston where it is 30° with 86% humidity and winds W 3 mph... We are slated to reach the low 40's today, so not too bad... LOL!
“Sense Day!” Why Not?
1) "Our Creator has given us five senses to help us survive threats from the external world, and a sixth sense, our healing system, to help us survive internal threats." - Bernie Siegel
2) "Nothing is more fairly distributed than common sense: no one thinks he needs more of it than he already has.” – Rene Descartes
3) "Imagination was given to man to compensate him for what he isn't. A sense of humor was provided to console him for what he is." - Horace Walpole
4) "Forgive me my nonsense, as I also forgive the nonsense of those that think they talk sense. Robert Frost
5) "Battle is the most magnificent competition in which a human being can indulge. It brings out all that is best; it removes all that is base. All men are afraid in battle. The coward is the one who lets his fear overcome his sense of duty. Duty is the essence of manhood." George S. Patton
The senses dictate to us how we behave and some senses are stronger than other and remember that...
