If I were rich ...

If I were rich, I would take all those people I possibly could, that God has brought to me, who need that, and give them a place and time to heal without having them have to jump through hoops and struggle to TRY and get it ... and endless paperwork and appointments when they are so tired their exhaustion is to the very core of their being...

More than counseling and doctors, what people need FIRST is comfort and peace, as a sick child needs to rest and to eat and sleep some more and have someone read them nice stories

But that seems to be reserved for Hospice, if they can even get that, then, instead of in the course of life when it's needed too... Especially mid-life for those people who never get vacations or breaks from the struggles, until they are dying

And this is an accepted way of life, for many people in poverty or single parents, and others, who fight a war every day, that noone seems to acknowledge as a war, and never get a break, trying to make ends meet, alone, against wave upon wave struggles and other people and their contempt and icy indifference ... telling them that they made the decisions that led to this and kicking dirt in their faces as they walk away ...

It's like telling someone that they decided to walk to work today, for whatever reason, in freezing cold so it's their own fault they got sick... when these days we know it's not the temperature that causes the illness ... it's the microbes and the lowered resistance to them due to a need for rest and supplies to keep them strong enough to fight it off.... Do you see the comparison?

Ignorance is like a rabid dog, and it's running rampant, among those who have a good life and are educated, biting and infecting other people and bringing them down, one by one, to suffer from a brain disease and a lack of love

The only true way to learn about life and the world in which you live , is to love, and the only way to cure the rabid dog is to learn... but so far, there is no cure for the rabid ignorance, though miracles happen every day ... The power of LOVE is just not courageous enough and willing to sacrifice to save humanity (yet people are willing to take up arms to kill to defend a country) People are not courageous and strong and loving enough to save the right to happiness and joy and prosperity in the land they think they are defending ... The enemy isn't them over there... It's ignorance (lack of love, and wisdom) right here...

"God Bless America" is only a slogan for a corporation if there is no strength and courage borne of LOVE to back it ***
