/Recovering
Happy Friday, I am sitting here trying to rest because I just had an epidural in my back. Please help me pray that it works and that I am finally out of pain.
Last night I watched President Biden’s last speech from the Oval office. It was short but one thing he said, that I can’t stop thinking about, was this sentence:
“On those rare moments in history, when the decisions we make now determine the fate of our nation and the world for decades to come, America is going to have to choose between moving forward or backward, between hope and hate, between unity and division.”
What does this sentence mean to you? It left me in complete contemplation.
Life for the past 4 years has been challenging to say the least. Men wanting to become women, women wanting to become men. Anheuser-Busch having a commercial with a man dressed as a woman putting down men who are hard workers and good ole boys resulting in a company that I loved as a child becoming a company that I would never buy anything from again.
Not to mention black lives matter and George Floyd. People going out and burning our cities down to the ground. Destroying Mom and Pop stores to the point that they could never recover.
In the past four years the fact that a campaign to defund the police was supported by members of the country was shocking! Today one can steal up to $1000 in certain cities and the person stealing will not be prosecuted. Instead they get carte blanche with no repercussions.
Our borders are open and whomever wants to come over can! No one has been vetted or investigated! Come on over! In America we will give you money, put you up at a nice hotel and let you do whatever in the world you want to do here.
Lastly, I have to mention fentanyl! The cartels are running the show. I believe this is global terrorism. If you watched the RNC convention and heard the Mother of 5 talk about her oldest son who had never done drugs, and he tried it once! It was laced with fentanyl and her child died!
More Americans have died from fentanyl overdoses than died in World War II!
Hmmm, back to part of the statement President Joe Biden made, “America is going to have to choose between moving forward or backward,”
Prior to the 46th president taking office our country was not perfect. NO it wasn’t but there was some sense of law and order. God was still a big part of people's lives in the 70’s and 80’s. What happened? Jerry Seinfeld just spoke about this, he said in the 70’s and 80’s if you had a job and could support your family that was enough. You had a good life. And, then the 90’s it became all about the money! Money became people's God.
During Covid people got locked in their homes with no sense of community and couldn’t be with their loved ones. In fact people were in isolation. I know that when prisoners in jail get in trouble their punishment is to be put in isolation!
Human beings need each other to exist and have healthy lives. We need our families and our friends; we need to worship! We need to have a relationship with God and the socialization of being with people that believe what we believe. We need to support one another in good times and bad. We need love! We need companionship, we don't need to be isolated.
So do I want to continue with life as it is today? Do I want more government, more darkness? More insanity pushed my way with the woke media? Absolutely NOT! I don’t want to continue the way we have been going these past 4 years. I can’t handle the insanity, enough is enough- the pendulum has swung too far.
I want a president who is going to help straighten out what has transpired the past four years. I want the world to know that we are America and we are strong and we are united as a country! I want to see the American Flag again from my neighbors homes. I want us to come together under one country with liberty and justice for all.
So, sorry Joe Biden. I don’t want a future that is filled with more woke agendas. I want God to be brought back into our lives. I want people to have hope and a love for a country they call home.
I know I may sound naive and idealistic but I believe that we can get back to the basics of family, friends, faith and our flag.
God bless you and our Country!
Sending big hugs and love to you all.
