I do not see the value of such one sided perspectives on what is happening in this country.
As I see it, if we believe we have no power to impact what is happening in this country we are right. If we believe we really can make a difference we are right.
What is the value of staring into the toilet bowl? While certainty there is truth to the assessments presented in the previous post, and what is gained by only having our attention there?
What we focus on does indeed expand.
Martin Luther King started out his famous "I have A Dream" speech with a very pessimistic and discouraging assessment of the present situation of the civil rights movement. I women in the audience shouted to out, "Martin tell us your dream!!!" and one of the most famous speeches of all time came forth.
That speech made a difference.
Tell me, Tom, what is the value of the material of your first post to this blog?
