Obama, politics and such

I am usually not one to speak about politics or give my opinion on what I think of our current president; however, after having dinner with a wonderful friend I have decided to speak on what I hear about Obama, politics and such....

Obama-Rome was not built overnight and neither will Obama be able to "fix" the American economy, housing market and all the other BS people are bitching about. Remember we are all responsible for ourselves. Pay your taxes, don't take advantage of the system and live within your means so we do not have to continue to pump the financial situation with debt.
Politics- Tea party, Republicans, Democrats, douche-bags, Mofos etc.....at the end of the day, if it is hurting someone's pockets, they are going to scream about it. When you watch the news remember that....what is that person's motive? And why are they talking about politics when they are going on a book tour trying to make millions off of that American who is collecting unemployment and has not worked in over 2 years...hmmm....
and such-If you are like me, you are just another person trying to live that illusive American dream. What the hell is that anyways? After being fortunate enough to work with people who are living in Western European countries, I cannot say the American dream is that enticing.....work work work, buy above your means so everyone thinks you are well off and then bitch about how the government is taking our money and charging too much tax.....indeed the American dream...you know, the one that attracts those illegal aliens to this country, just so people can hire them for cheap labor and then kick them out when Arizona says so.
Ok, so there is my piece on Obama, politics and such.....now let me go back to watching Fox News so I can find out what is REALLY going on in the world!!!!!!

G-R-E-E-D

G-R-E-E-D=excessive desire to acquire or possess more than one needs or deserve.

Thus, that is the world we live in.

We spend more than we can afford.

We expect more from people than we give.

We want jobs but are not willing to work.

We want more than we need.

We use more than we should

We speak more although we know less

We speak more than we listen

WE ARE G-R-E-E-D!

Natural Pessimists

Observing life, I have found humans to be naturally pessimistic. Even when they verbally express any optimism, there is that pessimistic darkness that looms inside.
When good news is received, there is that doubt. When something is going the right way, there is FEAR it may not go that way much longer.
My theory has continued to prove me right with the upcoming date of Dec 21, 2012.
There are numerous "beliefs" circulating; the most popular: the world will end at that time due to the planetary alignments which will change the Earth's magnetic field and cause natural disasters....have you seen the movie 2012? Other theories discuss the return of Christ (may not be on that date exactly) or the end of a great empire which many interpret as the fall of China or the U.S.A as a super power in the economic sense. Fact is, all of these theories have a pessimistic undertone. I have only learned of a couple of positive theories from people who are actually studying astronomy, geographical, meteorological and geological changes or who are relying on their spiritual connection with the universe to guide their emotional attachment to the date in 2012 (which in their studies, Dec. 21, 2012 does not play a significant role).
Regardless of what theories bombard us every day or what we chose to watch and believe, why do most decide to believe in the pessimistic view? Why would Hollywood put movies out which show NY city being destroyed by huge tsunamis and continue to make movies about "the end of world"? Why do humans DOUBT themselves and each other before believing?
For myself, I have chosen to allow positive energy to guide my life. I refuse to watch films depicting the end of the world, I catch that fear and pessimism inside of me and hold it in its own cage fighting to keep it there and I look to human beings as a way to understand myself.
We have been taught to be pessimistic. Pessimism=fear and fear=order...something the media, government and religion have mastered to create. Now it is time to have a brighter outlook, believe in yourself and BELIEVE in that faint light in your soul that provides peace when you allow.
