It has been awhile since I wrote last (and first). I have been preoccupied with many things going on around my family. Overall, I could have made time to write but chose other things to do instead (par for the course isn't it?).
With the political arena screaming for comment I must say that I am not the least bit trusting that any candidate would be "GOOD" for our country as president (the jury is still out on Gov. Palin as VP candidate in my opinion). Having lived in Alaska for a short time and meeting quite a few people I must say that having a 80+% approval rating is a real accomplishment. The people are of a very wide conglomeration of viewpoints.
My view of the demokrautic nominee is that he cannot speak on his own and his ideas are very communistic. Being the un-politically correct person I am I will not call it something it is not ie. "socialism". Also the republican nominee is only some better in this realm also. He has a lot of socialistic ideas. Beyond these major problems that are already so entwined in our government both the candidates are wonderful...? Well these are my very brief opinions on the presidential candidates. If you believe the money you make belongs to you, then vote for the lessor of the degrees of socialism/communism. If you want your money to be dispersed and shared among the poorer people of the world and that you should not be allowed to make a fortune.... ever! then vote for the more progressive in this matter and vote in the new communist regime and send me some of your money(I am below the poverty level in the USA and your money, if you have a modest amount will go to people like me). I do not want your money and I believe you earned it and should have every right to keep it for your purposes.
I wrote this quite obviously before the election. I think we are in for quite a ride for the next term or two.

Just the beginning
Good Day,
Are you awake yet to the things going on around us every day? Starting with the spider that ran across the floor on your way to the shower? Sometimes an entire day goes by and I am so self absorbed that I don't even realize it's all over 'til bedtime. We in the USA are so busy; paying attention to our kids, wives(or husbands), friends, or just people around us is nearly impossible. It is essential to take care of the people and things around us but, we really don't do it. I know from personal experience that neglecting a problem only tends to make it worse. The more an issue is pushed away and not dealt with it just seems to fester into the next level.
We all can stop and think of unresolved issues in our lives or things that have been neglected. So how do we change them? First stop and take a mental inventory of what is really important, then look around and see what has been ignored. These could be anything from wiping of the computer screen to responding to a world wide political issue that could affect the future of the world as we know it! Realistically, God should be first then our families and others... If we change ourselves and revolutionize our families into what God intended in the first place there would be far less problems in the world today. Our schools now teach our children that God is a theory and evolution is factual. I truly believe that if people would look around themselves and seek the answer to the most thought provoking question "Why am I here?", they would see that coming from a protein blob that formed from 1000's of years of rain on rocks is a bit of a stretch. I would venture to say quite a few might even believe God did it. It might even help to know that all the billions of stars, planets, asteroids and anything else of consequence supposedly came from a grain of sand sized particle spinning really, really, really, really fast that exploded!!?? Huh? Is there a reason for promoting such an impossible idea? (more to come)
