Just a place for my thoughts

I am afraid

We have lost our collective minds.

I don’t think that I want to live in a world where the slip of the tongue can be taken so out of context as to ruin a man’s career, even when he has apologized profusely.

What has happened to being the bigger person?

What has happened to sticks and stones?

The world that goes up in flames over a controversial cartoon is not one where I want my children to grow up.

The world where one person’s hypersensitive ego can force a change of policy state wide, or country wide is one that is bound to fall into darkness.

Where is the tolerance that is preached?

Where is the understanding that is sung about?

What happened to “We shall overcome?”


We are living in a country that is committing moral and social suicide.

Who will speak up when they come for you?

    It is scary isn't it? I watched the news this morning and all it was was bombings and shootings.
