The reality of it is that most Americans cannot handle the truth. They would prefer to live blissfully ignorant and paying more attention to the latest celebrity gossip or some other trivial thing like that.
The truth is not always fun, the truth does not always bring happiness and joy but it is reality and those who dare to look at it know the reality is not always comforting.
I once had a college professor tell me he didn’t want to know the truth because it was too depressing. he just wanted to have fun and enjoy life. This had to be one of the dumbest things I had ever heard a PHD ever say.
The truth is when you know the reality of what is going on you can either ignore it or go about trying to affect some type of change. Those who ignore it may later feel the guilt of doing so and those trying to affect change may go broke trying to do so.
I can live my life happy and care free and forget about the truth or I can stand up be an American, be a real man and challenge the the drivel thrown at us from federal and state legislators. I can stand up and say “enough already” or I can sit back and hide as though I have not one bit of manhood.
I can understand why people want to live as those everything is ok, just take a pill and ignore reality. The pill of tv, the pill of drugs, or alcohol, the pill of the old mainstream media. Just swallow it all and be happy.
The I look at those who made so many sacrifices to give us the freedoms and liberties we enjoy. They didn’t take pills. They didn’t ignore the cold reality. They gave all so that we could be free. To ignore the truth and live in bliss is more than a slap in the face to those who suffered so much for our freedoms. It is dedicating on the freedoms for which they fought for.
Let us always have a desire for the truth and let us always be found willing to work to affect change so that future generations can partake in the liberties we have so enjoyed.
Keep Living Free
