This is an unusual topic to write in a blog post! But, this virus doesn’t care what race or political identity we are. In this day and age we’re all subject to the same germ, the same confusion and alarm because we have a potential death threat over our loved ones and our livelihood that…

Psychiatrist Ablow on Trump
Anyone remember Psychiatrists? It astounds me that people nowadays don’t honor the field of psychiatry like they used to. We used to have robust discussions in magazines, PBS talk shows re: different medical fields as they related to our culture and personalities in the news. Now politics has seemingly swallowed up the fun of our…
Changes in CA Voting, Be Aware!
I’m sure you’ve noticed the new voting pamphlets in your mailbox! I took a few minutes to read them, then researched online for more support – (NOTE: Not all counties in CA will be using the new system, but Los Angeles, Orange are among the few counties that will be initiating the changes.) It’s very…
CWT Magazine Article – by D De Han
I love blogging. Below is an article I wrote on blogging for CWT Online Magazine two years ago – Blogging for Social Justice by Diane De Han · Like many writers, I tried my hand at different writing genres, including song lyrics and a screenplay. Plus, I’ve journaled for years. My writing focus changed abruptly…
Raising an Adult: By Stanford Freshman Dean
On Twitter it’s fairly obvious some youth are good academically but have little understanding of life. People joke about them cause they get hurt for things they shouldn’t, obsess over certain causes, or expect things that just aren’t going to happen unless you work for it. In all my years as a Director/Teacher, I’ve been…
Was Jesus a Socialist?

Few months back I was reading the tweet of a progressive politician when this young female on the thread told me Jesus was a socialist! I think the topic of the tweet was capitalism/socialism and she just appeared on my…
Odd Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas !! Religious holidays are not just a time of joyful celebration but also a time of tension! The holy family knew it, we know it. We put alot of effort into holiday planning & festivities but many times don’t feel appreciated or we simply feel empty. We don’t know why we repeat…
Really … ‘Down with Prayers & Kind Thoughts’
The chant on social media where people are saying ‘enough with prayers and thoughts, we want action’, is not an accurate way to look at things. Genuine prayers are not a problem, they are welcome in any circumstance, in my opinion. Prayers are a source of healing, unity, and resistance to the power of evil….
2nd Hardest Post I’ve Ever Written
I don’t know where to start! I’ve been on Twitter for over a year, discovering how it truly works, who it impacts. It’s way different from FB. It’s a platform that shares news stories from recognized news outlets as well as personal opinions from people like you or I, on the daily political or social…
5th Anniversary, It Still Hurts
At this time of year I get a ‘visitor’, a specter reminding me of a painful event. I’m used to it now, I can’t fight it. It’s not right to do so either cause it cheapens life. Even tho Marc’s in another realm …. I’m not ‘over’ him! When you’ve been so close to someone…
