Every day I wake up and wonder how our politics got to where they are today. Where compromise is a bad thing. Where civility has gone by the wayside. Where people just don’t think what politicians do affect their daily lives. The Republicans allowed a white supremest, a sexual predator and a liar to take… Continue reading Donald Ruined Republicans, Nancy is Ruining Democrats

A White Quandary
I saw the above picture shared on Facebook. It is a great picture of a family reading together. At first I loved and shared it. As soon as I hit return, I immediately wondered if that was the right thing to do and unloved it, then deleted my post. I’m currently reading White Fragility by… Continue reading A White Quandary
Wanted: True Christian Leaders
If Jesus was really in a grave somewhere, he’d be rolling over in it at how far from his teachings many so called Christians have strayed. If Jesus was alive, he’d be at the border feeding migrants. He be at the concentration camps protesting the treatment of the youngest and most vulnerable of God’s children.… Continue reading Wanted: True Christian Leaders
Trump’s Iran Problem
Is it just me, or is it starting to feel like Iraq all over again?

And an American President… Continue reading Trump’s Iran Problem

I recently finished reading Stacey Abrams’ book, Lead from the Outside. She has fascinated me from the first time I heard her speak as a candidate for Georgia governor. Following her campaign and after reading her book, I firmly believe she will be sitting in the White House one day, although I do wish she… Continue reading “Lead from the Outside”
Democrats to Blow It, Again!
Every day I, along with many people, are outraged at Speaker Pelosi and the leaders of the Democrats. I’ve been doing my part in tweeting to Ms. Pelosi and Democrat leaders, I’ve called the offices of Speaker Pelosi and my own elected officials. But now I’m going to be quite blunt… Speaker Pelosi, get your… Continue reading Democrats to Blow It, Again!
Get to Know Your Neighbors
When I first moved into our house in New Mexico, the neighbors were quite friendly. They would say hello, ask how things were, am I getting to know the area, said let them know if we needed anything. You know, odd stuff. In fact, I asked Richard what was going on with all this friendliness.… Continue reading Get to Know Your Neighbors
