You all know I can love my country and also criticize my country right?? Pretty sure we have lost that thought process and n America today…

I am pretty happy that potus is spending time trying to get the football team from DC to change its name back to the original…seems like a good use of his time don’t you think???

Struggling with the hate in American…not the country I grew up in…although I am an eternal optimist..;we will get there again!!

41 years married to the love of my life today. Love you Penny.

My father was killed on May 18th 1971 in Vietnam. Memorial Day is sacred. We honor those who have fallen to defend our country and its ideals on this day. And the men and women that gave their lives did it so the freedoms America stands for continue…that means freedom for all…

[jim torrence @torrence84]

Do people really believe attacking marginalized groups of people is the way to move America forward?

[jim torrence @torrence84]

Civility is important. Humanity is important. Caring is important. Why is this hard to understand?

My wife has the best relationship with both of our adult children. It is something special to behold. The way she lights up when they call on Mother’s Day brings tears to my eyes. Penny is the best.

Penny and I took a cooking class today and we were joined by a wonderful lady from Canada. She was so much fun. We had so much fun working with her. What the fuck are we doing???

Love arguing differences of opinion. Love arguing differences of political philosophies. Struggle with debating people who use god as their evidence..I mean how do you respond? Refuse to engage those who are unwilling to listen to another view point…I mean what’s the point?

Just thinking about how great my kids are…that’s it!!

[jim torrence @torrence84]

@480Cares All 4 should be in!!

[jim torrence @torrence84]

Lucky to have life long friends. Our conversations change..our priorities change..but our devotion to each other never waivers…and that makes me feel good.

[jim torrence @torrence84]

Just doing some thinking..it’s ok to make money. It’s ok to amass wealth. It’s ok to reach for the stars…it’s not ok to rig the system so that others can’t …right??

[jim torrence @torrence84]

Thinking about my son today. Anybody that would hate a person because of who they are is despicable. Full stop.

Taxi driver in Saville said to us,”American is a great country..we all follow you…but how can we follow Mr. Trump..what he says is nonsense” He was embarrassed for Americans! We got in the right taxi!!!

[jim torrence @torrence84]

[jim torrence @torrence84]
