These days, I hate logging onto Facebook.
I have un-followed a lot of pages because I feel like everyone is sharing something or other to cause anger and chaos. Everyone has something to complaint about. Everything is such a problem. The rights of the left have been affected but who cares about those of us on the right…
People want what they want without thinking {or caring} about how it affects everyone else. We all want liberty and equality until someone disagrees with you and then they must be silenced.
We are being played folks. We are being pitted off against each other, and I for one can help but wonder WHY?
We need to learn to disagree and respect.
I disagree with a lot of things I see, hear and know and yet I respect the people who are making the choices. It is their life.
I have remained silent on the Obamacare/Hobby Lobby issue but, I noticed how it was OK {for a lot of people} for the law to force someone to pay for a procedure for someone else, that they wouldn’t pay for, for themselves and yet when the courts rules for Hobby Lobby that became an issue.
Why do you want the government and your employer to have a say in what happens in your bedroom? To have a say in what you do with your body? I cant grasp that.
Friends, I love you and I am here for you in good and bad times, but I would NOT put myself through an abortion and I would not pay for/loan you the money to pay for yours. I respect your choice to have an abortion but I wont go with you to get one either.
I can be your friend and disagree with you. I don’t have to approve or agree with all of your choices, I just have to love you in-spite of them. If that makes me a bad friend in your eyes, than I really am sorry you feel that way.
There really is no excuse, in the age of technology, where everything is one click away, for people to not be better educated on abstinence, birth controls and condoms. Ignorance shouldn’t even be an option these days.
We have computers, smart phones and smart cars and yet people are getting dumber by the minute. Actions have consequences folks, we all know that.
Sex leads to pregnancy as it has since the dawn of time, why are people suddenly so shocked? And when did having a family become so wrong? I know, getting married and having children isn’t for everyone but there are other methods, other options. Abortion isn’t the only answer to the problem.
I have chosen to be quiet all this time because my views don’t fall to one end or the other, and that in itself is a problem for some. I have to pick a side. I have to, they say! But life is messy and complicated, so why do we expect things to be so black and white?
Think on this, if you will:
You are the only one that has to live with the consequences of your actions. You are the one who has to be able to sleep at night. You can be pro or against abortion or any other topic, but you have to respect that while you may be for it, there are those of us who are against it and vice-a-versa. You wouldn’t want someone to shove their views down your throat and yet you are so quick to shove yours down theirs? Why must you have someone else’s approval on your views? You are allowed to feel and think as you please. You are an individual! Are you really so insecure that you have to have the worlds approval?
Yes, I am a Christian, I believe in God and The Bible. Maybe you reading this, do not share my views and that is OK. You may be right or I may be, we don’t really know for sure and when we do know, it will be too late, we cant come back from death to say “I am sorry, I was wrong.”
But I will leave knowing that I have loved people, encouraged them, supported them and always told them my true views to the best of my abilities. I will not shove my God and my anti-abortion views down your throat. Please don’t shove your views down mine. I am willing to discuss our different views, I am very open minded but don’t get upset if you cant change my mind.
At the risk of sounding dramatic, our nation is in trouble.
We The People, no longer matter.
We The People, work ourselves to death, neglect family time and just about everything else to pay bills,keep a roof over our heads and food on the table [though many work and cant even do that] and keep our government living a lifestyle that we can only dream about. We have to come together, we have to find a common ground and together, fight for what is best for this country, for the people here now and the children who will have this world tomorrow. What are we leaving them? Nothing worth having.
They have us fighting among ourselves on topics that while relevant to many, are not exactly as important as the topics that are being ignored. Take a step back and see the whole picture, keep an open mind, be willing to learn something educate yourself on both sides of the argument and learn something new and you might be surprised to see all that you’ve missing…
