We are all in this together - same beginning, same ship, same travels (not necessarily the same destination).

Continued prayers for you!

That is stupid and ignorant (not the same, btw).

I see more and more "round" people (as wide as high) every day, and it's sadly shocking!

So, byotch..... You're barking up the wrong tree, but for a blind, ignorant "journalist," I guess that's not too shocking.

Father in Heaven, You've blessed our family over the years exceedingly - hearing our prayers and responding to them for healing, salvation, comfort, and peace.

Please touch and bless Carl and Adam. May Your healing be grace to unbelievers bring them understanding and Your true love. May Your healing also bring revelation of the Truth that is in You only - not only to this father and son, but to all who can witness your glory through this healing. In Christ's name, Amen.

... and illegal immigration only invites in people willing to break the law.

Truth! And if the law makers don't even enforce the law(s), why should those entering illegally care about breaking them?

This reminded me of an experience yesterday. We went for a lunch at a small, local diner. There was a couple with a ~2-year old, who constantly whined, cried out, and guess what "Dad" did to quiet her? He let her down out of her seat, and she wandered around and did what? Whined, cried out, and looked people in the eyes... my expression was NOT one of approval. Waitresses were eye rolling.

Back when our kids were that age, we got compliments on how well behaved ours were.

THAT is the key, IMO. Little Brats become Big Brats.... if you let them. We talked later how one of us would have removed a misbehaving child from the diner. Doesn't happen much anymore.

I think this could be part of this problem - parents not teaching good behavior, schools encouraging bad behavior.

ha, I agree - we can see how "history" has changed! I have a personal library with the 1959 encyclopedia set that I grew up reading (yep, a nerd). I cannot part them them!

100% agree - spoon feeding our children "information" doesn't teach them to think.

When I was a teacher (private school) years ago, I set aside one-hour/week for my 4th grade students to choose an encyclopedia from our room (yes, we dinosaurs had those). I told them that I was certain they'd learn something - at least ONE thing - they never knew.

Their responses were always SO gratifying!

"Mrs*, I never knew this!" "Mrs*, Did you know...?" "Mrs*, This is amazing" and so on.

I always told them, "You don't know what you don't know."

What a great day! First the guy truth bombing about a bogus AI traffic ticket standing up for his Constitutional rights - to THIS.

These morons cannot win this. We The People are tired of this SHIT, and I truly believe there are far more of us than them.

For many of us, our ancestors fought against tyranny and chaos - Revolution, 1812, War Between the States, etc. In their honor, I'm quite pleased to see this unpatriotic "person" get creamed (glad she wasn't seriously hurt, just her sick ego).

I have tears... of Joy and Hope!

I'm a Senior (67) -- I've not been to a doctor since 2019. Pureblood. Cook as much at home as possible. Ingredient reader. Low carb diet (not obese). Processed foods are a huge NO for us. Got "covid" once (loss of smell for a day or so, tired, that was all). Our kids and friends who took the jab were WAY more sickened than we were. I had the Hong Kong flu in 1968 as a kid in school. No shots, have never had the flu since.

EDIT: And we never wore the stupid masks! If it was absolutely required, we wore these "masks" made of small beads, which obviously let air in/out. Just a rebellion. In fact, lot of folks at restaurants, stores, etc., gave us a wink and a nod.... they HAD to do it to keep their jobs, but most "got it."

Thank you for this post. People really need to WAKE UP to what they're putting into their bodies - via food, drink, or injections! No shots for us at ALL, and we're doing fine.

God is with you through the valleys and on the mountain tops. People can be unpredictable and disloyal. God NEVER is. His words are true, and His promises are kept.

Each and every one of us has a fixed time on this planet, yet what lies ahead is glory. Be strong, don't give up. We all have a life after this one.

Prayers for you, fren. Looking up to God/Christ is way better then looking outward to man. Take care <3
