Dyslexia Is A Limiting Label

"Possessed by Genius of LIfe")


As of 2025, I am a young 79-year old professional negotiator.

When I was in school, dyslexia was not appreciated.


I am dyslexic.  In some areas, I have few equals.  In others, I may appear to be obtuse. My resume is considered stunning to those attempting to categorize my accomplishments.  As a  professional, I am a master negotiator. 


As a dyslexic, in my early 20's, I memorized military "radio-based morse code" training at Fort Jackson, South Carolina in less than a week.  Memorizing and internalizing the sound-relationship to letters seemed like child's play to me.  It was so easy to do.


After radio school, I was then transferred to Fort Gordon, Georgia, for basic "teletype and cryptological training", where I finished several weeks earlier 

than scheduled.  On completion, I received a "Top Secret Crypto" security clearance.  


In the years afterward, I have compensated for my reading/perception challenge by reading at a slower pace than normal ("normal" is a concept I do not favor), and using my fingers to glide over the words, while softly saying them out loud to myself.


Today, in my twilight years, my confidential clients place great value on my insight and opinions. 


Note:  My published works are entirely my own.  I use no quotations from any other source, and I do all the visual artistry and illustrations myself.

"Possessed By Genius of Life"


As a child, I looked up to the heavens on a clear night and imagined a Cosmos filled with life.  In my senior years, I still sense a magnificent living Universe, existing in forms different from my being in human form.

“HAVE I DONE A GOOD JOB?"

Have I Done A Good Job?  I ask myself this question every day.  One of my social media sites says I have over 5,000 followers, but I really do not know why. 

 

I am grateful to have reached my 79th birthday, and grateful I still have a clear mind, and plenty of creative energy.

 

This morning, I heard a person being interviewed in a televised hearing taunt the fact that they had been in public service for over 30 years.  I immediately wondered, “Did that person do a good job – one that benefited and enriched others? 

 

Such is my goal in life.  My hope is that others will benefit for my being here.

Dreaming Dreams


Is the Dreamer that I Dream,

also Dreaming I'm a Dream?

Are we each the Other's Ruse,

Picked by Fate, or Do we Choose?


Is One the Other's, Other One,

One of Two, and Two of One?

Is What We are just What we Seem,

Dreaming Dreamers, Dreaming Dreams?
