Most every day, I begin my day with a Vanilla Cappuccino not necessarily from STARBUCKS since it has gotten too expensive without a gift card.
Looking back on my life, I figure I have lived 77 pretty damn good years, considering all lives have ups and downs, highs and lows that aren't always that easy to live through.
I have seen more than the average American and experienced more than the average American as well, simply because of when I was born... which has never been in our control.
My concern recently are not the high cost of groceries or gasoline or all the illegal immigrants that were allowed into our country or the shootings of innocent children in our school systems or the potential of WWIII... no... my concern recently is that AMERICA IS DIVIDED.
She is divided, it seems, more than she was just before, just after, and during our one and only CIVIL WAR.
Now while that does not seem like a big deal to you, it is to me... and I feel that way because:
- divided countries cannot compromise
- divided countries cannot stop hating each other
- divided countries cannot solve problems
- divided countries cannot move forward
- divided countries present weakness to their enemies
