My mind is racing and full of many thoughts...I wish my dad was here to cuss and discuss! We used to talk about everything and things going on in the world and he always made me see things in a different light. And he usually added a calmness to whatever situation we were discussing. We called him "the voice of reason" and man do I miss him! Now thinking things through on my own and cussing and discussing with my hubby makes me a grown up now! I can't explain why it feels like I'm a grown up now but it does...
So the events that happened yesterday...wow! I don't even know where to start! There are so many things that affect each other that it's hard to narrow it down. But here goes...All lives matter. Period. All. I'm a live and let live kind of person, just don't shove your beliefs down my throat or make me pay for them and I won't mine to you!!! It's that simple...live your life and let me live mine! God created us all different! We all have strengths and weaknesses and no matter what we can not all be the same! No matter how much money we throw at it, no matter how much it's not fair...LIFE IS NOT FAIR!..we are all different! How we handle our differences is what makes this country great, or at least what used to make this country great! What happened to this great country??? What happened???
We are on a road that I fear we can not turn back around. And how we handle things from here will determine where we go in the future...and the only thing I have to say is that we must be "active participants in our own survival"! That means we must learn to take care of ourselves and our own...spiritually, medically, financially, mentally, and physically! Now with that I don't mean that we don't get help...I simply mean that no one is going to do it for us and that we must do it ourselves! It is hard but we must learn to stand on our own feet and then come together to help others or we will fall as a great nation!
There are others out there in the world that wish to destroy us and our very way of life at whatever the cost may be...we must learn to stand tall and united...we will have to be tough and do things we don't want to do but if we turn our heads the other way, this great nation will crumble around us. The enemy, whether it be Satan or terrorists or ???, wants to destroy us and the best way to do that is from the inside out! Just like a cancer destroys a person from the inside out. So far they're doing a fair job and it's time we put a stop to it! So no matter where you are in life you can do something...educate yourself and learn our history (we are bound to repeat it if we don't learn from it!)...stand on your own two feet, then help your family, then your church, then your community...take care of your body physically...think things through so that you're not constantly reacting to life, "be proactive, not reactive"...train for the worst and then be happy when life is good...and pray, lots of prayer! Do something, by not doing anything we turn the other way and the enemy gets in easy! And no matter what KEEP ON KEEPIN' ON!
