We Are the 99 Percent

Read this blog or just skim through it. These are your countrymen. These are your people. These people are your brothers, sisters, parents, friends and family.

I feel fortunate and thankful for our position right now, but still anger as I realize that it could all be gone in a moment.  And for what? So some corporation can hold more 1’s and 0’s in a computer account?

There are no guarantees in life as they say, but we as a species should look out for each other.  I don’t care if you are red, white, brown, black, or blue you are still human and every human deserves the basics. 

We deserve better.  

Since your vote for change in 2008 proved useless. What do you do now?

What am I going to do about it? I am learning to grow food year round in my plot of land. I know once I figure it out, I know I will have extra. That extra will go to those in need. Imagine if we all did a little something like that? It doesn’t have to be big. 

“Give and you receive” They say. I don’t really care about that, I just think it is the right thing to do.

Just some random thoughts…
