I wrote this to a friend, and in reading it over, decided I was really thinking about stopping Yahoo 360 for awhile, because what I told her applies to me as well. I have things to do in my life, and the distraction of trying to stay up on this blog, well its sometimes work. And then peolpe leave comments and sometimes get all cranky and start quoting scripture, or their version of it, and I just say this is getting out of hand. So see ya later...
In reading your many blogs, i was consoled by the fact that I was not alone in the fact that I could see this country slipping from what was to what will be. I share your utter shock at the apathy most people have...while I dont always agree with your views, I find I do more times than not. You have caused me to think through things I would rather not, and I am grateful for that. I hope you know that there really is a lot more people who think like you than you might realize, and giving voice to those concerns is both a blessing and curse. I have "quit" 360 several times out of sheer frustration that nobody seems to care about the future, too busy with the here and now.
I have a daughter about your age and she asks the same questions you ask, about where the country is heading, whats her future going to be like if nobody stops the insanity. I worry about that a lot. I worry that everything our nations founder expressed concern about seems to be coming true...that the government no longer respects the people, that fear has trumped liberty, that greed has replaced morality, etc ad nauseum.
When people like Dave Ramsey and Lou Dobbs go on TV and say its time for another revolution, one has to wonder how long until that may happen.
I value your friendship, and hope you stay in touch. Take care.
But then I got a plea to relent, and keep bloggin...so I will
