As we prepare and ready ourselves for what is coming to our lives, I look back sometimes at what has been. As I become more focused (thank Spirit) I sometimes am concerned at what I percieve to be the turmoil around us. Are there enough of us holding the grounded perspective? I posted a song on facebook by Sugarland called "Stand Up". As far as I know there was no one who listened, or at least no one commented. It is about standing up and making your voice heard. Stand up for hope and love. Sounds pretty ultra unrealistic in these jaded times. But facebook! "Like if you like Mitt", "Like if you like Obama", "Like if you love Jesus". Not that there is anything wrong with that, but what is accomplished? There are even postings that I "like" too. But it is real easy to click a button.

So I have started trying to write. Right now it is coming out a silly sing songy poems. Sad stuff, grieving stuff. So may not post on my other blog for awhile. Want to make this something real and have a clear point of view. Writing letters, actual postage stamp sending mail letters. Working out so much stuff. We all have a point of view, I just want mine to be one of some solidity, not just "click a button".

    We put so much emphasis on intellect, knowledge and opinions, but they just pollute the air as far as I'm concerned. The rubber hits the road when we act on that knowledge...
