RESOLUTIONS – GO FISH
A NEW YEAR. A TIME FOR REFLECTIONS AND RESOLUTIONS.
Seems every year I want to start out with some new resolutions. This year I will lose weight. This year I will spend less and save more. This year I will exercise daily. Ad nauseum.
What I really should do is see what I have learned in the year past and apply that to making for a happier year to come.
For example, the year past has taught me that looking for real solutions to our nations problems to come out of Washington D.C. is like fishing for supper in a septic tank.
Not to say there are not good, decent politicians. There are. But, they are so outnumbered by the clowns, lunatics and criminals that the honest ones do not have a chance.
Washington is an asylum that is being run by the worst of the inmates while the “good ones” are relegated to aligning the deck chairs on our ship of state while it is sinking in a sea of debt, dependency and political correctness.
When a plurality of the voting population is made up of those who no longer seek the truth but prefer to believe the fantasy that it is possible get 20 pounds of apples out of a 10 pound sack, Democracy is ultimately doomed.
Too bad there is not a law that requires pictures of our children and grandchildren on our nations credit cards. Public and private.
I think that this year I will resolve to spend a whole lot less time focusing my life around the insanity that rules our nation and more time on minimizing its impact on my life.
I will instead resolve to start the new year by spending my time more profitably fishing for happiness with my family, friends, faith and neighbors. And, do more good for those I see in need along the way.
