Sorry, can't do! It's not about me Sir!
I never said it was about you or me. It's about us as a whole. And I'm no sir, I'm a Ma'am, thank you.

We have to work together because we are all from the same source. We, as a whole, have to straighten up the mess that our ancestors have left for us. That means we, as a whole, have to do something. It can start with you focusing on Love instead of war. I and you and everyone else have to show Love and give Love for this mess to be set straight. Without that, everything will be for naught.

I know you have a good heart in there somewhere but you focus on the negatives of this world instead of the positives. What about the people who have nothing yet give so much to others out of Love. What about the downtrodden who give hope to others. Why the need to focus on that which I'm sure you have done nothing to help fix. Run for congres. Run for president. Take a seat on the senate. Run for mayor. If you don't like what is happening, do something. Instead, you post the atrocities on this forum just so you can vent your frustrations. Vent to the ones who matter.

I tell you true, the angels and God are working for the betterment of mankind. It will happen. Maybe not in our lifetime but it will happen. Spread love, not more negatives.

I apologize to you ma'am, really I do. Part of loving people is showing them the things that are coming to pass. I'll also have you know that I am not frustrated in the least. Sadden, at times yes, because some of the people refuse to "see" what's going on right before their eyes.

And yes, I do "speak up and out" in my community, Betsey is well know around here for standing and having her voice heard....,. The Town Hall is a couple of mile away! Hope YOU'RE practicing what you preach, yes? We all have a job to do, yes? LET ME DO MINES!!

But if we can do nothing, even if we've tried, it's better to let things go than to carry the extra burdens. I show people love and give them comfort. I can't change the laws nor can I run for an office not because I can't but because I won't. There's too much politics and I'm very politically not correct. I say what I think and people don't like that. I say what's in my heart.

So, I give the support that others need through love, compassion, mercy, forgiveness and to lend an ear when one wants to vent. I may not always be right but I can dang sure let them know that someone is listening.

Keep up the good work and let your heart rest knowing that God is on our side. He is watching and giving comfort. Ask Him to comfort you though these trying times so that you have the strength to carry on with serving each of His children the best way you know how.

And please, leave the negatives out of your life. I don't read the newspaper nor do I watch the news. Things are going the way they are supposed to and when you look at the whole big picture from a Celestial standpoint, you will see all is not lost and those who are hurting mankind, will be ousted from their command posts in the governments. Angels are working with us. You can be very sure of that!

Hi Magnolia Bloom. I see you're here in FL too! Did you bother to read the article? Here's an excerpt: That could mean more audits confiscated refunds and incursions into details of individuals' health insurance plans --

More government control. . . . . . . we already know privacy is out the window. . . . . . . . . (the dots) . . . . . are you following me? Don't you see what's coming next?

I did read the article, but, no, I don't follow you and don't see what is coming next or what it has to do with my Christian faith.
