Spring

Why, I wonder is the President pushing so hard for the health bill that is creating such animosity and wrath . . . why is Harry Reid, according to the latest blurb of political chicanery, inserting a paragraph that says there can be no changes made once the bill is signed; no possible way to make some of the big mistakes written within changed for the better. why, indeed, is the offer to follow the carrot on the stick being rammed down our throats whether we agree or disagree with this thousand page bill packed with something for everyone, even if each of us, who followed the rules of the road, paid or taxes, bought and paid for out own insurances have to accept a bill that we know is detrimental to us and our voices go unheeded. To go against our constitution is wrong, yet it is being done . . . back room deals . . . lies. . . a split between parties. . . a world gone mad. There will be a price to pay and each one of us from the highest to the lowest will pay for it . . . so far trillions of dollars is the buzz word . . . trillions. . . mind boggling as most of us gush over a fifty dollar bill if we are lucky enough to see one. A high price to pay for generations to come because Politicians are playing Politics.

Aah . . . on to a scene of serenity, hopefully taking away the stress of the everyday political words and deeds being played out in our world. This picture means hope, so say a prayer that today, the first day of Spring, will bring a season of new beginnings of peace and prosperity. It has been done before. We have been through a lot of hopeless times and survived and we will again.

So today as you listen to the news and do or do not like what you hear, make up your own mind to be the best you can be and know that in another year you will be able to vote for a 'change'. Go out and plant a few flowers, take the dog for a walk, give yourself a day off from political harangue and have some faith that God will remain in charge and as the old Irish joke reminded us to ask that He give 'them a limp' so we will always recognize 'them'. Peace be with you today . . . we can all use a bit of that.
