The real deal

Everyone has some kind of belief that what they believe is right and the more powerful we are the more we tend to try to force that belief on other people.  Often truly believing it is for their own good.

Sometimes it is and sometimes it isn't, but I find it hopeful that our country seems to be making progress.  It may only be in tiny increments, but I do see hope.

The color of my skin, who I love, how I worship, or don't, should not be anyone's concern except mine and it seems we are headed in that direction.

There are so many things that human beings can do for each other.  We need to make sure people have enough to eat, access to good health care, a chance for a good education, and enough amenities to make life livable if not enjoyable.

It is easier to keep people stirred up about inconsequential things, hoping they will forget about the real problems.
