I used to think that my role in this world was to be pretty, soft, sweet and to use my gift to encourage others to greatness. Now I understand that my gift should be used to educate as well. My lack of confidence in my ability to understand political and world issues should not be an excuse to remain ignorant.
If you are like I was and side stepped important issues of the day simply because you didn’t want the burden of forming an opinion and possibly having your fantasy life bubble burst, please consider that an uneducated citizen is a danger to himself. Ignoring a problem does not make it go away. I take every news report and political movie with a grain of salt because everyone has an agenda however, we should all be concerned enough to at least form an opinion and arm ourselves with knowledge, whether we can divulge if it is tainted or not. In other words, don’t be a dummy. Watch the news every once in a while. Even if you feel powerless, it’s best to know what you are up against. Here is a promo for a movie coming soon to theaters with information concerning the rape of America by the American Internal Revenue Service, the American Government and other little assorted tidbits. Very informative. |
