Just Musing/Aftermath

Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane asking his father for the courage to get through the events that were to come.
A picture to remind us to have faith, hope and charity so we can live the lives we have been given and have the courage of our own convictions.   The end results of the election have left many down hearted and concerned about the future of America and especially their own future.    The 'whites' as we are called by those who have come into our country illegally, some legally, bring along a bit of their upbringing and ideals of coming into America to benefit for themselves and take over by living off of the sweat of someones brow.   Not fair we whites cry . . . as we allowed ourselves to follow the 'golden path' and gave away our hard earned heritage.   

We hear that the rich white folks should pay a lot more of their hard earned money for taxes to help defray the cost of socialistic living;  why not the rich black person, or the Latino person who has made billions of dollars.   Oprah comes to mind , and although she seems to have lost her status, when she was in the limelight she built schools overseas for poor students but not here in America where she made her fortune.   My thoughts go on but some will think and say I am talking through my hat . . . could be, but I do know that the only way to survive is to start by helping yourself, be true to your own convictions and keep faith and hope starting on your knees.  Do not allow anyone to make you a lesser person;  you know who you are.

I feel like the little boy crying wolf when there isn't one .  . . only time will tell what is going to happen in our country and what will be offered  as the country is split in two.    Life changes on a daily basis.     I can remember when hamburger was three pounds for a dollar and now it is six dollars a pound.   Bread was ten cents a loaf and now is three dollars.  The hourly pay was fifty cents an hour and now it is twenty or more . . . our world has changed and will continue to do so.    We change right along with it so you will do what you have to do to survive.  

Know yourself and participate in life one second at a time.     And as "Annie" sings . . . "Tomorrow, tomorrow, the sun will come out"    and after the storm it usually does.
Hugs to all.
