Last year , I learned of a serious life threatening health problem, I started a journey of living my life as if I only had one year to live. How would I move through my week, my friendships, my time with everyone? After being single over 8 years would I start a new relationship or would I choose to stay single? The journey led me down some difficult, but ultimately beautiful and rewarding paths I likely would not have taken if I continued to believe my time in this body was infinite.
This year, I again realize the truth that I’m living my life as if it is not guaranteed that I will survive it. All Life is only borrowed time. What freedom there is in knowing that each moment is perfectly precious and my body is not mine, but simply on consignment from the universe. I’m grateful to wake up each day and to watch the morning sunrise and at night to watch each sunset. I realize my spiritual journey began at conception and will end with my last breath one day. I once again fought against the odds , The universe spared me once more. I won for today. I am grateful. Like I say, the only thing that matters in life is the time between life and death. Enjoy it while you’re alive. Each of our lives only happens once. Good health is priceless!Make it count ♥️
BREAKING: The Trump administration is putting every state on notice in a massive crackdown on Medicaid fraud.
FTC Chairman Andrew Ferguson just announced that Hawaii has been officially decertified for failing to enforce the law and address the fraud problem plaguing the state.
"Everyone is on notice. And today, Hawaii is being decertified for its abject failure to enforce state and federal law to prohibit fraud."
‼️NEW JERSEY CITIZENS LAST
You pay obscene property taxes. Absurd utility bills. You work your ass off to provide for your family...and Trenton takes it all with a smile & promises "free stuff" when it is politically expedient.
It goes like this: classrooms packed with 35 kids, hundreds of teachers laid off, safe busing options eliminated. Now @GovSherrillNJ is yanking away up to $2,500 in promised Stay NJ property tax relief from your grandparents on a fixed income. Not just the affluent retirees, if that's your argument. EVERYONE.
BUT THERE'S ALWAYS MONEY FOR EXHIBIT A: the Governor's progressive atonement tour for the horror of sending the @NJSP in riot gear... to stop violent riots.
Just when you think it can't get worse, she finds a way to make it MUCH worse. It's a talent that only out-of-state Democrat transplant NJ governors seem to nail with precision.
"Thank God for video because they couldn't keep up that ridiculous line much longer."
@DawnFantasia_NJ joined @HARRISFAULKNER today on @FaulknerFocus show on Fox News to discuss the chaos outside Delaney Hall, criticizing New Jersey leaders for defending what they called "mostly peaceful protests" while law enforcement officers faced threats and violence.
Watch the interview:
Absolutely ashamed at my union brothers and sisters picketing at Delaney Hall saying F ICE, why aren't u more mad at the Gov who imported illegals in?
These illegal criminals committed homicide, awful crimes on children, drugs, and more, why support them?
Get Out and Live Before Life Passes You By
By Stanley R. Leszewski - Founder - American Substance Abuse Foundation
Sometimes it is hard to have a vision for your life when you have never seen much beyond your own surroundings. Sometimes it is hard to dream big when life has only shown you struggle, limitations, disappointment, and survival. I know this because I have lived it. There were times in my life when I could not see beyond the next day. Not because I lacked the ability to dream, but because my world had become so small that I forgot how big life really was. When all you know is what is directly in front of you, it becomes difficult to imagine something greater waiting beyond the horizon.
One of the greatest lessons I have learned is that you have to get out into the world. You have to give yourself permission to be free. You have to explore, learn, ask questions, and absorb everything around you. Too many people spend their lives trapped inside the same routines, the same environments, and the same ways of thinking. They never realize how much opportunity exists because they never step outside of what feels comfortable. The world is filled with lessons, opportunities, experiences, and people who can teach you something valuable if you are willing to pay attention.
I have learned more from life itself than I ever learned sitting still. Some of the greatest lessons came from traveling, meeting different people, listening to different perspectives, and simply paying attention to how others lived their lives. Some people taught me through their successes. Other people taught me through their failures. Some people showed me what I wanted to become, while others showed me exactly what I never wanted to be. Every person has something to teach if you are willing to learn.

New Jersey @GovSherrillNJ is lying to you. PERIOD.
Friday night's debacle DID NOT escalate because of @DHSgov as she just claimed in today's press conference. It escalated because of MOSTLY PEACEFUL RIOTERS. Stop insulting the intelligence of the public.
The people defacing property, biting and threatening law enforcement, creating chaos, and refusing to obey lawful orders are the problem.
Thank God the @NJSP were there. Thank God DHS was there when things went sideways.
Leadership means telling people the truth, even when it's politically inconvenient. Stop playing dumb. Stop making excuses. Act like a leader and call this what it is. Encourage cooperation between ALL law enforcement agencies to get this under control.
If your goal is to ensure humane conditions in a detention facility, you have an odd way of showing it.
@NJAssemblyGOP
@YWNReporter There should be federal agents down in the hole looking …What if they are terrorists and planted a biological weapon or some kind of weapon underground?
🇺🇸 America First 🇺🇸
Not sanctuary cities first, not failed democratic policies first, not illegals first. What happened to American politics? Enough of the “junk” policies and fake photo ops, fake social media news, Trump dropped the hammer of justice and exposed the crimes, that’s good 👍 so the real question is: when will politicians who supported, aided and abetted and committed crimes and responsible for deaths be held accountable in a real court of law and made a example of? Or is it all a smoke and mirrors show?
@GOP@POTUS
🚨 NOW: It’s still LIGHT outside here in Newark, and anti-ICE rioters are ALREADY physically fighting with ICE agents
As I’ve been saying for days, this is ONLY GETTING WORSE.
Agents need REINFORCEMENTS!
On May 7th, @AswVickyFlynn and I met to file an OPRA request with the @NewJerseyDOE.
YES- two sitting @NJAssemblyGOP legislators were forced to file a public records request to obtain basic information from a state agency.
Regarding the Office of Special Education, we requested:
1️⃣ A list of all NJDOE employees and positions.
2️⃣ The number of investigators employed by NJDOE.
3️⃣ A list of all pending special education matters for which NJDOE is currently responsible.
4️⃣ Documents listing salaries for NJDOE employees.
5️⃣ Salary information for County Office employees statewide.
6️⃣ Copies of reports issued by the Office of Special Education.
Additionally, we requested:
7️⃣ Documents identifying districts that exceeded the 2% tax levy cap from 2020-2026.
8️⃣ Documents demonstrating NJDOE oversight of those districts.
9️⃣ Copies of OPRA requests received by NJDOE in 2025 and 2026, along with the responses provided.
🚧The Department has now requested an extension to answer until May 29th.
The first set of questions are BASIC and OPERATIONAL.
If sitting legislators are hitting roadblocks obtaining information about staffing, caseloads, oversight, and accountability, imagine what parents are facing when they are trying to get answers about their own kids???
For months, parents have described a Department & Governor's Office that doesn't respond, doesn't communicate & doesn't answer questions. Our own experience here has done nothing to inspire confidence.
KEEP DIGGING.

🚨 Every Childhood Vaccine Tested Positive for Glyphosate Toxic Cancer Causer from Roundup🚨
Independent lab tests just dropped a bombshell: ALL 5 common childhood vaccines tested positive for glyphosate — the toxic, cancer-linked chemical in Roundup.
The MMR vaccine was the worst — 25x higher than the others. Why? It’s stabilized with 25% pig gelatin from animals fed heavy GMO grains drenched in glyphosate.
They’re injecting carcinogens straight into our kids, bypassing their natural defenses. Big Pharma and the mandates are playing Russian roulette with children’s health.
🚨 Anthropic just showed a 27-minute workshop on how to actually do prompts for Claude.
Taught by the people who built it.
Free. No registration. No paywall.
I've seen $300 courses that don't cover what they teach in the first 8 minutes.
Watch it and bookmark it now.
🚨 JUST IN: Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has just BANNED AI data centers from using up all the water needed by citizens during a drought
And the law BANS utility companies from charging higher prices because of data centers
"How are you going to say that somehow the water can go to a data center when we need to water for our own people and for the core functions of our society?"
