Do not have a new superhero this Valentines, but all those grand years with the love of my life and others after his passing keep me fine for this HUGE Valentine for the World on Valentines Day.
Parable:
Website building , I took a break from a task that that would NOT give me what I needed - then "BINGO !" - I found the issue and fixed it easily. As usual with site-building code, I told it to do the thing it was doing; the page had done what I TOLD it to do! I told it to do the wrong thing and so it could not do the right thing. But fresh eyes at it after a short break worked: I quickly spotted my the misdirection, and fixed it! Ding! done!
And that's America! - At age 243, America is doing what we TOLD it to do, to a great extent, wherever it is not governed by other laws and UNlaw.
So Think What is good and what works, but THINK. RE: the issues that have us ranting in the street probably made the headlines because we sent it there, but that is beyond help now. What matters now is finding the error and fixing it. And praise all the powers you respect that we CAN, in our amazing America, and in every decent place on earth!
Sans souci! Without anxiety! Simply fix it, though fixes are seldom simple. But if we told it to do the LESS desirable thing we can tell it to do the MORE desirable thing and WIN !
Complications always always arise, and immediately, and beyond what is fair.
The powers almost always say We WILL NOT , or we CAN NOT.
Manipulation, this be, of course, to make nuts and bolts for the assembly if it is to work and last.
We dig down and provide more EMPOWERMENT for this good goal, whatever it may be, in the classic recipe for things: State the goal for approval, get cooking, generate "the right stuff" to win it, organize the response and ACT well and win it. Make it great , make it last. Give it room to bend and not break. Room to celebrate.
I smiled at restoration - MAGA - Make America Great Again - the most glorious restoration project in our lives. My arts restoration skills from parents and teachers, thru college studies and family and community and arts-related projects made me feel right at home in this administration. No one wants the evil of old days to return, but some of the good that was lost must be restored or will die or least lose any understanding of the good goals and why we pursued them.
We all wailed when the surge of growth at the turn of the 21st century made as many messes as miracles…OKAY…we figured it out and got it going, now let’s clean it up. We must not throw away resources but when we jumped to ground to serve , we dropped this, broke that, and dented and wrinkled a lot more. This needs to be cleared a bit or the focus will not be possible.
And there is where the real evil moved in: The MOMENT we moved to do tidy it up and regroup for even finer success, equal powers arose to argue the point with an equal volley of mess and anti-social actions, unhealthy ideas, and outright disrespect for human life.
And so we are making a LOT of noise, we builders, traditionalists, redcrossladies, life people and even those who thought that, in our modern times, we would never need to get activist again.
I need a separate Facebook page for my causes!
Occupant Safety and Escape Tech for tall buildings and air vehicles - this MINE since girlhood. It has a small page of its own and a fine goal.
Safe streets via putting deadly weapons in their place, andd non-deadly ones for routine use and ALL responders bulletproofed before they are asked to put their lives on the line in days when even the simplest crook shows up with weaponry enough to wipe out a town
THE WALL - the statistics rise daily about the sheer numbers literally raiding our country with outspoken motives to dominate and destroy our land, and no respect for its laws and with no desire or motive to EARN a DECENT place.
ABORTION - my background is perfectly gifted for this one: church, state, science in great detail. I KNOW. IF they want to pass laws about it the law should require EDUCATION and commitment of ALL of childbearing age to be RESPONSIBLE re: pregnancy. Medicine and education and counseling and literacy levels and tons of PSAs mean that we no longer need to abort - today that is theory and STILL not practice…..and THERE is our sin, now…..When I was a girl one could not reliably be responsible for pregnancy at all, and so we were forgiven, but that is no longer so. WE NEED TO GROW on this point and in our hearts we know that is true….but when will we?
We are playing in space like a fancy toy and we need to grow up in this way too….the public still does not get the message delivered except in scary doomsday terms, instead of the ways that empower us to learn and grow and be ready for what lies ahead.
Health causes : better testing and efficient diagnostic and MORE MORE MORE noninvasive and nonsurgical and non-narcotic ways in health and wellness and triumph over deadly scenarios. My own favorites: preemie defects, aneurysm and avm, women’s medicine and allergic reactions in drug combining.
Again to be effective; never stress goodguy/badguy dynamics - that only makes it worse - we stay powerful AND peaceful and focused and objective to get it done.
THEREFORE: My prayer is this: BRAVO for the achievements, so far...now THINK and focus and WIN - we did - you will ! WE CAN ! Do not be afraid to be inspired and do a new thing well and EFFECTIVELY. IT may be the third millennium but it must remain all about LIFE. In every way , every day we must support life - RESPONSIBLE life. If we can get the percentages of evil down in things in the past, we can truly conquer them in the present and future.
WE CAN WIN FOR THE GOOD - WE MUST WIN FOR THE GOOD - WE WILL - TOGETHER!
1976 - My late husband and myself , a steady team, helping like good spouses and parents and good citizens, we earned an easy moment relaxing with friends and family on a summer day, cool indoors for moment. Such fine days! and part of me - and our children forever!
