There were five things in my life I wanted to do just about all of my life – as a calling and a purpose. In no particular order: Prove the existence of God. Find the fountain of youth. Have nine kids. Feed the world. Be a philanthropist.
I think I should be listed as an endangered species and protected under the Endangered Species Act. 28 December 1948 Endangered Species Act 48th Anniversary. Saw it on the calendar. Hey, that’s the year I was conceived. At 7 months in the womb I probably already developed my subconscious, unconscious and conscious thinking apparatus, given […]
In Steve’s Words I don’t know if I ever told you about the time Sharon and I won the Oregon Lottery. A million dollars as I recall. It was (circa) 1986 in Portland. I was working as a Manager at a fast-food seafood restaurant called Skippers (As in Arthur Treacher’s, as in Long John Silver’s). […]
The Freedom Of A Bicycle My mother once said to me, looking back on it all, I guess we were poor. I never felt that way though, she said. I thought then that neither did I. A second hand bike when I was nine years old didn’t mean poor to me. When my father, and […]
Juncture By Juncture I either resisted or accepted or required more time. Knowing in advance and along the way, that ‘staying time’ at each level was limited. No quick moves became the faster the better at every level of engagement. SL
WHO AND WHAT I AM I was born who and what I am. It’s easy for me to see everyone as equally worthy. Although I see differences more than similarities, only because they stick out more, the judging part is basically on the big differences not the little quirks that seem to bother most people […]
THE GLOVES ARE COMING OFF Consider the saying ‘the gloves are coming off’. It’s a fighting term from boxing. When the gloves come off and bare fists are used for striking the opponent the dirty, bloodier fighting begins. Although historically, traditionally and currently that was and is the meaning, it doesn’t have to stay that […]
I Don’t Hate Brits Black Lives Terrorists are triggering white people to hurt other white people. And Brits are showing them how to do it. It’s begging to end – let it. Those who started this are the ones to end it. You know who you are. Whoever wants a war will get one much […]
Do you know what I learned about addicts over the years? They are immersed in their experiences to the exclusion of everyone else. Everyone else is a prop. Everyone has a wagon in their mind. Addiction is natural animal behavior – repeat repeat repeat. When is religion too much? Ask a factory worker. How many […]
I remember sitting at the dining room table me and Dad when I told him about an electric pencil sharpener I bought as I excitedly and in disbelief told him all about how it worked and he said, “Yeah I know…I’ve got one at work”. “You do?” Come to find out they all had them. […]

FAMOUS CITYSCAPE Constructed by God 2020 The day before Thanksgiving on 25 November 2020 we we’re scheduled for a yearly inspection. It’s always the day before Thanksgiving. Don’t ask me why, except to disrupt poor people the day before a holiday. Make life miserable for the tenants, so…
Yes, I will kill a blood-sucking bedbug and not bat an eye – if it enters my space for the purpose of disrupting my life and making me and my family suffer. If it’s a fifty pound bedbug I’ll kill it before it gets here without batting an eye. If it’s a hundred pound bedbug […]
Most people grow up wanting the world to turn their way. I grew up thinking the world already did. I thought everyone was like me. How wrong I was. But what a surprise and relief to know I was already there. I wasn’t born to be where they were. The rest was a cruise. Or […]
I expect the same from myself my family my neighbors my associates and my acquaintances and friendships as I do from my President and the politicians who make decisions that affect my life directly or indirectly no matter the state or district they claim to represent. We’re all connected. I expect the same from every […]
A DIFFERENT SLANT A different slant on the news, a different slant on life, a different slant on the world as we once knew it, as we currently know it and as we will come to know it – that’s what Word Warrior Davies-Tight is all about. The slant that everybody overlooked, because they were […]
Sharon In The Raw I write in individual and sometimes collective universal voices. It’s not a question of whether you agree with Sharon or not. I write thoughts we all have. Some muse that I have access to what mills around in my subconscious/unconscious mind. In other words the doors were somehow left open between […]
In 1975 the CIA and probably the military began spying on me after going to the Soviet Union with my husband, a couple of priests and four high school students as a school project. I paid my own way in case anyone inquires – by selling our bedroom set we bought after we were married […]
A Visit To My Past Through A Film INVERNESS, SCOTLAND A city on Scotland’s northeast coast, where the River Ness meets the Moray Firth. It’s the largest city and the cultural capital of the Scottish Highlands. Its Old Town features 19th-century Inverness Cathedral, the mostly 18th-century Old High Church and an indoor Victorian Market selling […]
I will prevail. No matter the consequences. ~ Sharon Lee Davies-Tight
I looked in the mirror, and for the first time I saw an old lady be me, and immediately zoomed to the teenager who met me in that mirror – like the teenager I used to be, looking in the mirror now looking at the old woman who is she. We both laughed. Wow. Look […]
I am in the head of all life past, present and future. I share the DNA of plants as well as every animal. I share the quarks, atoms and molecules and everything before, after and in between all that existed, exists and will in the future exist in the universe. That’s how opening oneself to […]
Like me, hate me, be indifferent to me, I don’t care about your view of ME. I share my spirit, not my physical, emotional or intellectual self. That’s what you wanted right? You wanted me to be a faceless person and speak from another dimension on what I see? Then someone steals it and puts […]
I chose love over money at every juncture throughout my life. That’s why I don’t have any money. I am in a perpetual state of being in love. I am in love with life and all that encompasses.
Too bad the American Negro chose and demanded of the world that they be called Black, when their true color is brown. By choosing the black rather than the brown label for themselves they opened the door to competition south of the USA border. That was a huge strategical blunder. What were they thinking, that […]
My age is a constant reminder of my mortality. Old age is like an incurable disease with an expiration date. When we’re young it’s the crossing of the street or getting into a car that could end it all prematurely. It helps to lift the doom knowing the odds that it probably won’t happen and […]
What? We? Who’s we? Are you one person or a multitude of like-minded people in one person? How would I know how you individually feel and then how a multitude of like-minded people inside of you feel? How would I know that? Did you tell me, specifically, or even generally, how you feel about anything? […]
Sometimes I get so sick of people’s endless quirks. Then I realize I have a few of my own. Yes, sometimes I like Humble Pie. It’s an acquired taste. Not for everyone. It pairs well with Chateau d’Yquem.
Isolation became over time a place of comfort – a place where I became most productive – a place I grew to call a home I own. Now I look to own a different home. ~ Sharon Lee Davies-Tight
Most people perceive God as someone who can perform humanly impossible feats of power at will or whim or urging, that is communicated with or without a request or a demand from a conglomerate of molecules, atoms and chemical reactions in an organism called a human. That’s not my God.
Grandma and Grandpa long before I was born. James Frederick Davies and Katherine Rose Germonte. Grandpa’s father was born in England and his mother in Ireland. Grandma was born in Lithuania with Russian, Ukrainian and Polish roots. When Dad and Mom bought their old house and Grandma and Grandpa moved to one that was all […]
I love balance. Not as in good vs evil and settling for somewhere in between. That’s compromise. There are endless shades of good that have no connection to evil that I just happen to like to balance – not as in a juggling act, but as a necessity desired by me to bring out the […]
Can I hide inside your heart for a while? ~ Sharon Lee Davies-Tight
I’m a territorial daughter of a natural born engineer and a mother who possessed exceptional reading, intellectual and organizational talents, both of whom were savy enough to follow their own minds in their own ways. The two left a mark on me that nobody except me can own. Not even them. ~ Sharon Lee Davies-Tight […]
SHARON’S ALL ANIMAL – unpredictable for the sake of her own survival – like all animals. She’s not afraid like we are – of that connection. We fear it. She recognizes it. Embraces it. Accepts that which she cannot change. She is it. She has all the animal moves – the gender moves too. It’s […]
Once you laughed with me, and I thought it the most beautiful sound I ever heard. I still do, and throw my head back in remembrance, cherishing that time – forever in my soul. ~ Sharon Lee Davies-Tight
I don’t really want to be connected to a group. I don’t know why I’m that way. I love to be around people. All kinds of people. It doesn’t even matter if they’re nice. Maybe because my DNA matches so many regions around the world – and I draw on all of them by the […]
My grandfather was born and raised in Inverness, Quebec Canada, yet my DNA results do not reflect me as being Canadian. I was born and raised in the Unites States of America, yet there is no DNA marker that proves that I am an American. Canada and the United States are not ethnicities. The ethnicities […]
Many years ago while in nursing school and doing my maternity part of schooling, our teacher discussed pelvis sizes regarding ease of birth. She pointed me out and said, “Sharon, you’ll sneeze out your babies” – meaning I had a wide pelvis. At 69 years old I can attest to the fact that I sneezed […]
Merry Christmas Jim & Nancy!
I decide what offends me, not you nor any person nor any law nor any local custom, religion, race, gender, policy or practice, nor influence based on the status of anyone or any institution. ~ Sharon Lee Davies-Tight
My mind is growing like wild flowers in July should. MERRY CHRISTMAS! ~ Sharon Lee Davies-Tight
My entire life is handmade by me. Every facet, nugget. Every thought, action, reaction is perfectly designed at every juncture to fit the need of the moment. ~ Sharon Lee Davies-Tight
I’m okay when you’re okay. That’s how I fly. If you’re okay with enslavement, torture and slaughter, then you’re not okay. That means I’m not okay. ~ Sharon Lee Davies-Tight
Cree, when I asked I was told through a physical medium – scrabble tiles I used during my rehabilitation from a toxic brain injury caused by toxic molds. I wasn’t too pleased with that, considering their hunting nature, but then all Indians share that nature. I still don’t like it. Canadian. On my Grandfather’s side. […]
Create connotes willy-nilly. There’s nothing willy-nilly about my process. I engineer everything I do – the entire recipe developing process is engineered. I don’t cross my fingers, take a deep breath or hold my breath, pray, hope, wish or hand it over to the universe. I take control at every juncture. I don’t try something […]
I’m not enough of any one thing to claim anything for myself based on heritage. ~ Sharon Lee Davies-Tight
I don’t stay mad at people. Never have – even as a child. Others would get mad at me because of it. I never saw the good in it. It wasn’t in me to carry the stuff. I don’t know the why of it – only that I had no interest in getting even. Even […]
Sometimes I think I’m being lazy when I’m really just being efficient. ~ Sharon Lee Davies-Tight
Upon choosing a healthier more compassionate diet, you will be challenged by those who have not yet taken that step, to defend your decision to not eat animals. They will argue that your animal-free diet contradicts your other animal using behaviors, thus making the issue of killing animals not worthy of consideration. They will point […]
Wind songs whisper through summer sands brash promises of winter snow nights melting in memories of that which spring failed miserably to deliver. Howling, piercing pain tunnels through funnels of hardened flesh frozen by air–whistling a tune one prefers not to hear. A tune one cannot help but stutter upon as it stops in mid-air. […]
