Now is the time to act.

Today is the day to raise our level of awareness. Some of us have lost our way and the best thing we can do for our country is get back on track. There is contention, division, and violence. The time is ripe for great men and women to stand up for truth, love, freedom, and unity. IT TAKES GREAT LEADERS TO MAKE A GREAT NATION! It takes people with courage, insight, compassion, and tenacity. We need to elevate our perspective, change our attitude, and advance with a sense of purpose.

We have the greatest potential we have ever had in history! This is the time that humanity has dreamed about! What are we going to do with this moment? Will we spend the rest of our lives determined to have our way no matter what billions of other people think? Will our children and future generations have to live in fear?

We are at the crossroad of history. The choices we make today will determine our destiny. Life itself is trying to help us by surrounding us with people and situations that encourage us and stimulate growth. Enjoy life. Become a source of life for everyone around you. Feel enthusiasm, joy, and love as much as possible.

Regardless of your beliefs, the fact remains that you were born and you are going to die. Being happy is the only rational thing to do.

What happened to us?

People used to be more kind and loving to each other. They seemed to understand that we are all a lot alike no matter where we live. It seems now that some people are living in their own world, sometimes with little regard for the feelings of other people in general, except the ones who agree with them.

I have always felt that my life runs smoother when I share my thoughts and ideas with others. That way, we avoid one-sided conversations that do not allow for practical solutions to problems. Nobody knows it all.

We could make giant strides in this country and around the world by learning to listen to each other again, to stop agreeing with everyone we like, and learning to think for ourselves.

A sense of fairness

Most people know that you cannot have any real safety and happiness except in a society where everyone plays fair. It is important to discuss this topic because there seems to be an underlying attitude of my way or no way which is permeating our lives more than we realize.

Safety and happiness can only come from people all over the world being honest, fair, and kind to each other. It is one of the most important rules in the world. I can’t believe that most people would want to leave a legacy of contention and negativity. We are better than that. We are actually able to make better choices for the human race when we exercise our freedom to think rather than respond automatically to our immediate feelings.

We need to get back to the basics of honesty, fairness, respect for others, love, compassion, and kindness. Without these virtues, our world can be a very unpleasant place.
