10:09am  This is something we haven't done in a while.  I want to record some more of my beautiful wife's genius opinions, her take on things.  Please rewind in your speech for like 23 minutes, please.  :]

Tita:  We just watched this video by Matt Dillahunty. 

Victor:  I am refining my atheism collection.  This guy is awesome.  I can't believe hs is from Austin!  I can't wait for him to read my blog.  

Tita:  Victor just played me this really cool five minute clip of this guy talking about Christianity and justice.  I was telling Victor that in my opinion ALL religions are bad because they encourage division.  "I'm good, you're bad.  If you don't believe like I do you are wrong."  "Only by believing my way can you enter the gates of heaven!"  

        Some people don't believe in an afterlife.  Some people do, so the only religion that I know, that I am aware of, the two that I have some dealings with personally are Buddhism and especially Hinduism.  I don't know Buddhism that well.  I haven't studied it for a year, like I did Hinduism at the ashram.  

Hinduism tells you that God is everywhere.  There are precepts, there are guidelines to be better, but it tells you that no matter what you do you are part of God.  Everyone is part of God.  Unity and diversity.  We are all unified even if we are different!  That's contrary to what I hear with Christianity.  Very contrary. 

Whatever divides people is wrong and shouldn't be encouraged.  Like only the Jewish can enter the afterlife?  Doesn't that sound wrong?  I know these are old precepts, but they rub us the wrong way.  

Oh, what I was telling Victor is that we are part of the age of Aquarius.  We know what has been done to the planet is wrong.  Victor knows this.  The planet has not been respected.  It's been used for greed.  The minerals have been leeched out, gold, precious jewels, crystals, ALL FOR GREED(Rob Potter and his cintimani scam).  

        Victor and I know that there's a better way to live.  That's why we love each other.  We realize that our values are hand-in-hand.  We also know that somehow, in someway we are going to alleviate these wrongs.  

10:39am  Damnit, I hate it when I'm not recording and Tita says some cool shit.  What were you saying?  Something about Diana, I think.  

Tita:  Diana is in deep denial about that fact that she has tons of issues around not having grown up with a dad.  That is the bottom line with Diana.  I played out what I saw and sensed from her.  The superficiality of her relationship with you.  

        Laura, this is Laura, hold on, if I know I am being recorded, that's the problem.

Victor:  Okay, I turned it off. :P

Tita:  Laura is going the other way than Diana.  To Laura, she thinks: "I did get fucked over by Frank and all kinds of bad things happened to me.  But, it's because he abandoned me!"  We saw that speech of hers, that is heartfelt.  My dad left me is what her video is all about, it's on YouTube.  LAURA GETS IT!  Laura understands.  "I was assaulted at 15 because I didn't have a dad.  I was used badly by men.  I didn't know my worth as a woman."  And then Laura tries to get married and has a kid.  Things got rough, but Laura was able to move on and do the best she can.  She goes about her life and has different relationships.  She's trying at least.  

        She knows it wasn't good what happened in her youth because of an absent and irresponsible parent.  Laura is doing the best she can with what she has.  She's honest, unlike Diana.  

        Laura is like you or me.  More introverted.  She doesn't worry about having a lot of friends.  But, she also seems to be a people pleaser who craves love and attention, a lot like her twin brother.  

Laura, when she had the opportunity, when Dad came to her, the universe somehow connected them and he called her!  She had Covid, she had a 104 degree temperature for six days.  She was not doing well.  He felt that something was off with his daughter.  

Victor:  How did you learn this?

Tita:  He told me.  And she wrote it on FB too.  She got a call from Frank when she was sick.  He told her to relax, that he would tell her exactly what to do.  He healed her.  Told her do this, take that, don't do this.  She got better!  The summer of Covid. 

According to your dad, for about a year, and according to her posts she had a better relationship with her dad in a whole other country than with her mom, who lived in the same town.  Laura was getting hell from Diana, "Don't go out!  Your endangering mom!"  Laura had a kid with all of the ailments.  She had to go out.  Life can't stop because of Covid.  To save her sanity, Laura started growing flowers and gardening in the backyard like you did.  She bought seedlings and it became a business for her.  She was trying hard, but she was getting flack from her sister, Diana.  Who is she?  

        She has no right to opine on poor Laura.  Laura was trying her best to live her life.  Laura didn't do well during Covid.  Not only did she get it, but she's got a sick daughter.  

That's how I feel.  So in the midst of that she said on her FB with love and compassion that dad was more loving and kind than mom.  I'll just leave it at that, because it's a lot.  I've read these things.  She was in contact with Dad, she got to know Patrick who is a spitting image of her son.  She was bonded to Dad that summer of Covid.  

Mamada has a pattern of if things go bad, I'm bailing.  She only wants you when things are fine and good and happy.  According to the conversation I had with dad, that whole year passed.  He told me they were close and loving, that he helped her with herbs and listened to her.  It's there, that really happened.  Then about year into what happened?  Charlie, Laura's son had a mental breakdown when he was in Mexico.  Laura reached out to him and said, "Dad, I need your medical history.  I want to kmow more."  

Victor: Hold on, how many conversations have you had with Franklin?

Tita:  We've talked for like eight or nine hours total.  Anyway, at a distance Frank was like, "Oh, they're delving into something very personal.  Ada must be involved somehow.  Maybe wants to pump information."  It didn't sit right with him so he told Laura he wasn't going to share.  She got bitter and angry and pissed.  Frank though, "Oh, she's turning against me now?  Does she not remember that I helped save your life last year?  Wasn't I there for you last year?  Haci de facil se enojas?  She got all huffy, "Compared to the 42 years that you haven't been in my life?  You think that's good enough?!"  That's when they disbanded.  

I can empathize with both, but from Dad's POV he saw Laura was not over the past and that sounded like Ada.  Ada has told him those same things.  

Victor:  I'm kind of on Laura's side.  Too little, too late.

Tita:  Then why did she take "the little?"

Victor:  Because it was better than nothing.  That's the least he could do.

Tita:  Nope, he could've not been there at all.  He could have not called.

Victor:  We have the right to expect more from this "man"!

Tita:  At this point if a stranger comes back and offers you anything you need to forgive and forget.  That's what Laura can't do and mom doesn't encourage that.  It's probably never going to happen, the forgiveness, the love, because Laura can't let go of the past.  I do get her point of view though, but he did good for her.  He was supportive of her for a year when she needed it most.  Shouldn't that count for something?  

2:45pm  We came to Turkey Tech in Turlock.
