Could you tell?

Could you tell I was angry and frustrated yesterday? 

Not today!  No I am not becoming an activist, but I do have a different outlook on things.  Beware!  I will become more aggressive in trying to change your pessimistic, hateful, mean attitudes into something more positive and uplifting.  I will offer you a smile, I will laugh at your negativity, I will pray for your heart, I will try to rationalize your thinking and explain to you how to turn it all around. 

Smile - every hour
Sing - every day
Say - something positive about someone you know
Reach out - help someone
Call - to say "I was thinking of you"
Think - positive
Pray - for peace of mind and a healing heart

Happy reading!

Just Plain Disgusted

I am just plain disgusted!

I am sick over the inability to stop a oil leak that is destroying my favorite ocean areas and the wildlife that inhabits the area.

I am fed up with the continuous lies told by our elected leaders.

I am sick over the moral decay of our society.

I am tired of discontented, jealous, hate filled people spewing vile and malicious statements against their fellowman.

I am sickened by those who can only see the bad and never search for the good in people.

I am dismayed with people who seek pleasure at the expense of others rather than finding peace and happiness within themselves.

I am disgusted with the lack of respect for others and lack of self respect in our people.

I am saddened that it is taking longer and longer for our young people to mature and become responsible.

I pray for those who lack compassion for their fellow man.

I miss my gentle friends who worked so hard to keep peace and ensure justice in the world and could always find the good in people.

At this time in the life of our nation, we as a people should be building our neighbors up rather than tearing them down.  We continue to advocate that we are a Christian nation, but do our actions reflect a Christian attitude.
