I know this is no surprise to all you bloggers out there but, BLOGGING IS A FULL TIME JOB!  I am not a regular blogger because I just don’t have the time.  Today I researched a minute number of blogs to see what’s out there and it has been three hours.

There is so much information out there and its great because you can find information on anything but, THERE IS SO MUCH INFORMATION OUT THERE!  It can be overwhelming.

For anyone reading this, THANK YOU, for taking the time.  Let me know you were here and I will visit.

Keep the Peace

We are suppose to live in the Great United States. It seems that our country is increasingly great for the HAVES and that much worse for the HAVE NOTS.

I am losing faith in us. We the people. We are no longer the best. Our infant mortality rate is worse than most other developed nations. We have a president that was not even elected. Our national and personal debt are disgusting. We are the most obese people in the world and the most complacent.

As the gap between the rich and poor increases and the holes in our system of government broaden, we do almost nothing. And the one thing that many of us do is not helpful: WE COMPLAIN. It’s always someone else’s fault.

How can that be? We are a democracy, aren’t we? So if the country is broken- IT IS -We need to fix it. So How? I am the first to admit that I find the task daunting.

I recycle. I try to be conscientious about the energy I use. I try and be kind to others. But when things like the last presidential election, 9-11, health care and the war on Iraq come in to play, it seems we should be protesting. How do we do this? How do I do this?

Well I joined Moveon.org and I’m writing this. I don’t think it’s enough so I guess I just keep trying to figure it out.
