SHADOW WARRIOR
BY MICHAEL SINCLAIR

The Shadow Warrior is a lost Soul.
He feels the pain of everyone.
But he is disiplined.
You don't know him, but you see him everyday.
He is the guy who comforts you when you are hurt.
Advises you when you need advice.
Is on the front lines when you are threatened.
He is the misunderstood one of the world.
The Shadow Warrior know his
place and what he must do.
He what to settle down and raise a family.
No one will give him the chance.
His life is constant shadows.
You do not see him, but he is there watching over you always.
The Friends he has are few but true.
Nobody wants to acknowledge him
when the battle is over.
They all want him when the fight begins.
All his roads are long and grey.
Will he ever find the one True person to share his life with?
All the people he know when young have grown to adults and
have children of their own.
All he really wants is one special woman to settle down with.
Sometime he is lost and is looking for his way!
He acts fearless and like he has no emotions!
If people would just look into his eyes they would see.
That there is fear, but he uses it to accomplish his tasks.
There are emotions, but he doesn't know how to express them.
Beautiful Lady take his hand and show him the wonders of a
gentle life.
Tend his wounds, run your fingers across his scars.
Help him to put his warriors Life behind him.
Hold him, kiss him, Love him!
For only thought Love and patience will you win him and start the process of healing.
Take him from that grey road before he destroys himself.
Show him the Light, Lead him to Safety.
Show him the Love and what it can do.

FRESH ICE BOX PICKLES. 

INGREDIENTS:
1 Bunch of Dill
4 Cloves of Garlic
8-12 Pickling Cucumbers
3 Cups of Water
6 Tbsp of Distilled Vinegar (5% acidity or above)
3 Tbsp of Pickling Salt

INSTRUCTIONS:
~ Place one minced garlic into each quart size jar
~ Add a few sprigs of dill to each jar
~ Don't stress about the exact amount, each jar will be different each time
~ Cut Pickles into spears or any shape you wish
~ Pack them into jars without forcing them in

~Combine Water, Vinegar, and Salt and stir until the salt is completely dissolved
~Pour brine into jars until cucumbers are completely covered
~ Add a few more sprigs of dill on the top
~ Screw on lids and rings

~ Refrigerate for 2 AGONIZING DAYS!!!

As I said, we spiced it up a bit by adding sliced jalapenos & sweet onions to a few jars.

2 Days, 2 whole days and we will be back with a report on how they taste! And I doubt they will be anything but perfect!

NOTE: If your pickling cukes are a bit soft and not crisp, place them into a bucket of VERY cold water for a little bite. That will crisp them up for you. This works for carrots, beets, and green beans as well.

why do people put their nose in my business?
keep doing it and i'm going to broke it.
that is all for now.
