Just here, not knowing, working to earn income for shelter, food, clothes, help others along the way, etc., then dealing with unexpected twists and turns—overwhelming at times. The author touches on these knowing that God blessed some to govern, maintain order, keep the peace, protect, administer, etc. and interact with American Citizens in order to have a balance. Based on education (before first class began recited pledge of allegiance and practiced good citizenship, honor roll throughout high school) received, when freedoms to believe in God and express praise, joy and love—in the pursuit of happiness—all are supposed to be protected in the United States. This simple person doesn’t understand how laws can be passed to remove the 10 commandments, remove prayer from school, businesses and public places—to the point of taking the Christ out of Christmas. The author’s bloodline consists of Native American Indian, black and white, she is female—several elements that are rejected, suppressed, oppressed and depressed by society many times with no basis for mistreatment. This makes exercising freedom of choice unavailable--killing equal rights for all—as it should be in America. Understanding through taxes, the people support those who serve in government. People are not supposed to be treated as “cash cows” and controlled when budgets overrun reflecting secret extravagant raises to those supposing to represent the people. Just as rapists, murderers, thieves, deceivers and hate groups are not supposed to inflict their will on others, nor should corruption exist. Justice should prevail for all people. The author believes God loves all and with repentance, forgiveness can make the crooked places straight. The choice to use pencil and paper, physical books, art, music, years of experience and simplicity should be equally respected along with use of computer/electronic technology, paperless methods, math, science, higher levels of education and sophistication.
While a child, told a descendant of black kings and of Indian genealogy, specific heritage is unknown—with focus on survival time never taken to research. However, having experienced the result of years of division, governmental “divide and conquer” wiping out one culture; believers of God; or any other group is not the answer. Accepting people as they are, recognizing “government for the people and by the people” really means all American citizens—working together, reaching out to those in need and making sure love is the basis—is the author’s opinion of a better way. Of course, as a Christian, “In God we trust” is what all Americans should do but since all do not believe, laws should not be manipulated otherwise. The golden rule “Treat others as you want to be treated or love others as yourself” should be practiced by all. “Keep it simple” has been the best method for all to equally enjoy the rights and freedoms this country has for all citizens—poor and rich alike. Since it is not for the author to fully know the state of current existence, she’ll stick to following Jesus through prayerfully reading the Holy Bible, practicing its principles and expressing it all with art, poetry and minding her own business, Faith Unlimited Enterprises.показать меньше
