Dear Readers, May Birthday Celebrants, Mothers, Flower Enthusiasts, Summer Breakers, Graduates, Promotes, Family Gatherers, and everyone who catches a glimpse of this entry!

    I do find myself in an interesting position of reviewing the entire month of May, when it seems like it went by so FAST!
    There was Cinco De Mayo to kick it all off May 5th then Mother's Day on May 12th, which I have no entry for, and them Memorial Day strikes on May 27th and its the end of the month already!
    So here I am to review at this point.
So many May events to keep track of. I personally had 2 birthdays to celebrate, one for my Wife and one for my Father, I hope that your birthday celebrations went well if you had a birthday or you celebrated a friend or loved one. 
    Please comment if you celebrated one of these birthdays and tell me all about it, I would love to hear about it! Did you conspire a Surprise Party, did you have lots of friends or very few, did you keep it semi-home made or go out to a restaurant, was it about gifts or just friends being together, I would enjoy the debate over what marks a great birthday! Share your thoughts, your side of the story and any contemplations you feel are relevant when entering a birthday discussion!
    Memorial Day... A day that commemorates as the President lays a wreath of flowers at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, or as I believe I saw it renamed, the Tomb of the Unknown Soldiers. Respectfully there are many named and unnamed which die in the line of duty, and as Americans living free, we are thankful for their sense of duty and purpose to serve in one of many military branches supporting this United States Government. If you are a Military servant, enlistee, or support family or friends in one of any Military engagements, please accept my sincere gratitude for all you have done and the service you continue to honor in giving your time and life to maintaining the life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness the United States Bill of Rights has inscribed as one of many documents that supports the way in which the United States came to be and continues to uphold as allowing us to live a free American way of life. Thank you for your service.
    Please comment if you have served, know someone who serves, or have a contemplation you would like to open up about service to one of any military branches. I know that heavy politics can get involved, however that is not the point of this particular entry in the flow and support of Memorial Day respect. I would enjoy hearing about the life lessons and empowering moments that seem to come from those involved in a military life. Share, open discussion, and pose contemplation to this listening blog site.
    May Day Catch All!!!
    There were many events that filled May including;
The Phoenix Comic Convention, better known to attendees as Phoenix Comicon!
The end of the Arizona School Year, as well as other states end of school year.
Events related to public schools before the school year ends.
College campus ends of school year.
Application deadlines to Colleges across the nation.
And many other events I have not yet imagined.

If you have such an event that happened in May which you would like to address, discuss or otherwise contemplate, please click the link and comment!
I would love to hear about your events and provide writing room to contemplate further!

Dear Readers, Attendees, Cosplay attendees, Geeks, Nerds, Steam Punk Characters, Star Wars enthusiasts, Ghost Buster fans, Star Trek fans, Trekies, Vendor salespeople, and one of thousands who attended Phoenix Comicon 2013 Welcome one and all to my site today!
    I would like to share what a success Phoenix Comicon 2013 was! I enjoyed seeing an friend I have made at Comicon, Jeff Schuetze of Jefbot, it was great to see him and his continuing saga of Jefbot. I purchased his book which includes the first few years of Jef bot's beginning and adventures. I hope to see him continue success and this site hopes to endorse him and share his comic as time allows for coding and updating.
I would also like to share the enormous fun of seeing celebrities like Will Weaton and the Awesome Hour with Will Weaton, that was great fun Friday night at Comicon evening events.
There were lots of celebrities signing autographs, lots of artists, authors, vendors, and programming to fill more that 3 days of fun and excitement at the Phoenix Convention Center.
I do hope that many of you had great memorial day plan with family. I will be writing about more events and thoughts and contemplations as I can make time to get them to this page.
In the mean time please comment and share about your activities over Memorial Day weekend. I hope your are entering summer activities with joy and happiness!
More thoughts to come, more contemplations to ponder.

Dear Readers, Site Followers, Contemplators, Enthusiasts, those who enjoy deep thought, and everyone else...
I am deeply thankful to all of you who viewed this page on May 5, 2013, I hope you all celebrated in some form.
One contemplation I would like to pose about the day is the misconception of the reason Cinco De Mayo is celebrated. I am sure many searches were performed on the day, and I am one to tell you that it is my hope many of you knew the correct origins of the celebration of the Mexican army's 1862 victory over France at the Battle of Puebla during the Franco-Mexican War (1861-1867). As noted by the History Channel.
If you have friends, co-workers, or family who would like to debate you otherwise, please share the outcome, as I would enjoy hearing how discussion played out in your experiences!
One other particular experience that weekend was Free Comic Book Day on Saturday May 4th. I hope all of you enjoyed the weekend full of celebration across the United States! If there are any international readers of this site, I would happy to hear from you!
While my blood line heritage is not of Mexican decent, I respectfully recognize the times when people celebrate historical events within their culture and backgrounds. As I am always asking for feedback and sharing of your personal experiences, once again I ask you to discuss, contemplate, debate, and share with this website!
If you have a historical event within your culture that often gets misinterpreted, or misunderstood, please write and comment about your experiences and how you correct these people in conversation.
I enjoyed May 5th, 2013 with my family and I hope you enjoyed yours as well.

Thank you for making May 5th significant in my statistics and views all the pages within this site, please come back again and I hope you continue to enjoy all the Blogtemplation entries I continue to share and open to the internet viewing world.

Dear Optimists, up lookers, People who need cheering up, Friends of friends, Foodies, The Cheerful, The Down trodden, The connoisseurs, Those trapped in gloom, Those willing to help you out, Family, loved ones, and your inner circles...

    It is May 1st and I was able to be of service to those who were being celebrated in a local luncheon for their service to others. I happily purchased 16 avocados and additional ingredients to put this bowl of delicious guacamole together. I am so proud of my work, and I found that it brought be joy and a sense of renewal. I am sad to see it leave my reach with chips, but like anyone who cooks, professionally or non-professionally, or just within your own home, I had small tastes along the way to ensure those fully enjoying this, would have thankful taste sensations to remember later!
    The point of my sharing today is about renewal. It is the beginning of the month, which is always one sure fire way to feel renewed or give yourself a sense of renewal, a new start, another chance to do or be the person you want to be this month.
I found that cooking helped me feel a sense of purpose, a sense of pride, and happiness when it was complete and I could deliver it to the intended luncheon attendees.
    I suggest that you take some time to reflect, contemplate, discuss, open debate, and share with friends your thoughts on renewal, and how you best enjoy renewal activities. What is it for you? Is it cooking? Is it hiking? Is it meditation? Is it eating in a favorite restaurant? Is it taking photographs? Is it enriching friends around you with your wild and contemplative thoughts....
    Which ever path of renewal you choose, I would love to hear about it and ask you to comment on this site. Please send me a message and let me know where, how, or what you did to find renewal in the month of May. I do enjoy hearing about personal growth and the experiences of the journey of life. I look forward to hearing from you and where your contemplations take you!
