There was a time when broadcasters related the news without there opinions - now every network offers editorials about the news without the facts.

New word - main stream media means editorials not news - everyone has an opinion but only when they have the facts on which to base an opinion

Journalism fails to meet the once sacred standards of unbiased reporting.  

When someone intentionally starts fires destroying the homes of thousands of wild animals and the vegetation of the mountains

When someone intentionally takes the life of another without just cause

When someone demeans another whether in words or actions

When someone withholds basic sustenance from anyone

When someone controls another person whether emotionally, psychologically or physically

There are many more ways of destroying than these, but the one thing they have in common is SOMEONE.

I just thought it would be over! Not yet - this nation is not yet a United States!  I have read that people are afraid or scared, yet it seems to be those people that are displaying violence and promoting hatred. I have as yet seen anything to warrant the destruction caused by the riots.  I am cautiously waiting and watching as our new chosen leaders emerge and take control of our government. I will continue to pray for these leaders and our President-elect and Vice President-elect.

4 More Days

Just 4 more days and the last two years of yapping, name calling, finger pointing, hating - well you have to know what I am talking about - it is ALL that the media has covered!  I wonder what my Facebook friends and family will talk about after Tuesday! This election has voided our minds for anything other than this election.

And it hasn't just occupied our minds, but also our time - time that could very well be spent on something so much more inspirational, motivational, educational. Well it is almost over and I can get back to whatever it was occupying my time two years ago.

One of these candidates will be our next president and my only wish is that the next president love America as much as I do; the next president want to promote growth for America; the next president honor the Constitution and the freedoms provided therein for America; the next president acknowledge the loss of life and the service of the many men and women in the protection of America and its people; the next president believe that all people are created equal and the laws of the land apply to all America and its people consistently; the next president serve America with pride and represent our America with honor and without apology as the greatest nation on earth; the next president acknowledge that our America is a Christian nation, always has been, always will be and protects without fear against those wishing to annihilate Christians worldwide.

I am ready for this election cycle to be over, so I will know how I need to prepare for the future as I know that big changes are in store for my America!

If - Then

If  
Knowledge is what we learn and know
Then
Intelligence is how we use what we know

Appears we need to learn to utilize our knowledge!

That time again!

the wonder of it all!
