I realize the two terms seem at odds with each other, but let me explain where I am going with this.
During President Trump’s term so far, the Left has literally been attacking him and his family every second of every day.
Don’t fact check that Lefties, it was an obvious over exaggeration, but you folks will try to use it against me. That’s how you roll.

I have been asked for my opinion about this one, and didn’t want to provide a flippant response while typing on my little phone keyboard, so it was time to dust off my blog and do this properly.
Let me begin how this essay begins. They state that they are, “Part of the Resistance Inside the Trump Administration”.

I have this quote on the door to my office, because even though it comes from a movie character, it is very profound.
Most of what we deal with in life can be viewed as a problem. From daily tasks, to interacting with other people, all are potential problems.

I have to tell my tale so often that I thought it was time to write it down.
First, let me clear a few things up.
An atheist is a Satan worshiper. False. That would imply that we believed in the Christian mythos, which we do not. Without the Christian side of the equation, Satan does not exist either. Make sense?

The neighborhood of this world is filled with good and bad societies.
Clandestinely the good try to manipulate the world order through backroom deals, meetings, and other sneaky ways to get things accomplished.
On the other hand, the bad members of our global community tend to be somewhat more raw and blatant in their dealings.

As Easter comes closer I find myself thinking about different people, and how they look at life. The human race is made up of a dynamically, undulating, diverse set of variables. From the physical, to the emotional, we’re like snowflakes, in the sense that none of us are exactly the same.

Obamanomics - Really?
Some people wonder what is so bad about the folks currently running our country.
Let me give you my two cents on the subject.
This little game of creating a bill that only the House will pass, or only the Senate will pass, is childish. Our government officials act like they are two years old most of the time.

I'm feeling a bit like a grouchy old fart tonight.
I went to my daughters orchestra concert tonight, and it was awesome as usual. At least, right up to the end...
The director informed us they were going to play and the audience could sing along. Here I'm thinking something cute like Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer or Jingle Bells.
Instead, it was a medley of four songs about Jesus.

I saw these statements on Facebook this morning. I like their simplicity, yet profoundness, so I thought I would enshrine them here in my blog for future reading.
The message started off by stating that these were possibly the five best sentences that you will ever read. I'm not sure I would go that far, but they do provide some fuel for thought, which is always a welcome read for me.

The events we experience throughout our lives create the programming we engage when we need to react to different situations.

Is it just me, or are some of the people in our government just idiots?
I can’t believe that after they were warned that just raising the debt ceiling would not prevent our credit rating to be downgraded, that’s the mark they were shooting for.
They set their goal on mediocre and missed the mark!
