We just celebrated our 250th birthday. Or was it our funeral? The way we keep running the streets killing each other, who knows? So much distrust is in our states today. A strong believer in God and His miracle working powers can lose faith in Him. We need His miracle working powers in this world today. Or better yet they are here we just don’t witness them. A miracle in my eyes are not understandable so our human eyes can’t see them. This breaking down in our U.S.A. may be God making us see that He is still in charge and we need Him.
Philadelphia, our city of brotherly love doesn’t seem to be a city of brotherly love today. We don’t have trust in our neighborhood. We can go into a house of God and feel no security. This country was built on God’s love. But we don’t even want to recognize Him in it, We bow down to man and our Governmen We have accomplished much but we can’t recognize it in our Country. We are no longer bonding with other Countries. We want it all for ourselves
We want money to buy what it can’t. I guess that is why we don’t have the love we used to have in our Country. We are trying to buy it. And it can’t be bought.
.
We are confused in this world. Our little boys and girls are eager to learn and grow up, They will ask questions to get their answers.
. Our older generation have so much learned wisdom. We in the middle are lost but we think we are error proof. We know too much to get advice from the older generation. We think that they are no longer wise. Wisdom comes with age but most of us think we lose it, And at the same time our younger generation we feel have not lived enough to know any answers or solutions. So we run around in circles confused.
We are confused about the running of our governments, the leadership in our schools, Our law enforcement is disorganized, and don’t want religion in the circle.
America’s 250 years will be celebrated in a few days.Is this our birthday coming up or our anniversary? After twelve months when a baby is born he becomes a year old. After being married for one year we have our first anniversary. So if we have been an independent state for 250 years is this our 250th birthday or Anniversary? Has dementia set in and we can’t remember our history about the forming of our Country? If so we need help from our younger generation. For we sure need help with our running of our Country .
Our Country was built on the solid ground of religion. Now we don’t even want rt in it. Is this a birthday or a funeral? Happy birthday America . I hope I see you next year.

We are always moving in this world. If we are not going somewhere we are coming from somewhere. We will someday have a final destination. Death and life come in the same package. You can’t have one without the other. Some of us run from life thinking we are running from death. All those steps we take thinking that we are running from the unknown for protection and avoiding trouble are steps we are really taking running from life. Life is what happens when we are avoiding it or running from it. Whether running looking behind or running forward looking ahead we can’t run from life. Let’s not miss the view while we are running. Life is short. And if we just have to run let’s run to God for direction añd protection and not from life,
Happy Father’s Day. Fathers
are special. How is Mom and the others doing? Dad it was only because of you and mom that I am here. If I haven’t told you in so many words, I love you. Both you and mom made so many things possible for us kids as we grew up. I am still here and lgrowing. God is not through with me yet. You and mom keep your heads up. The rest of us are looking forward to, not visit but move up. While we remain below our spirits and your spirits meet for your bodies are gone. But you are still here. Happy Father’s Day.
The Bible has no place in our Country today. Slavery has a history in our states With all of this equal rights being debated we don’t recognize it any more. Our Country was partially built by our slaves. The Bible refers to all of us. By taking the Bible out we also take out part of our history
Issues along with the history and the make up of America. We are no longer the United States of America but the Divided States of America. We are no longer a free Country. We are separated and living in slavery even though we don’t recognize it. We have taken out our rights while we think we are adding them. We are no longer welcoming other Countries in, When I was in grade school we sometimes talked about our Country being a melting pot, welcoming other Countries. We . need our name back (The United States of America).
Have you ever seen the healing powers in a baby? Fear and confusion can cause sickness. However the courage of the child who hasn’t learned it yet can heal you.
Many of the older generation who are classified and treated like sick people because of their age can be cured by a child who doesn’t see their supposedly sickness. Have you noticed how little children and our senior citizens get along together? That’s medicine. A child who really hasn’t learned how to be afraid can give a dying person the will to live.
Sometimes a baby who hasn’t learned to be afraid and can see you and not what you look like can heal you. We need to give our doctors more training and not let what they know now be erased. We need more doctors who can heal with love
Our Black and our White communities seem to come in two different packages. As Black people we seem to be artistic and our African heritage seem to be more mind oriented. We’ve used our mindful skills as many learned their jobs. Apprenticeship or student work came first. We also have many needlework, drawing, music and writing skills. In our slavery and inequality we seemed to use our minds more because intellectual education was not an opportunity. Our neighbors, the White population were given recognition for the intellectual part of our communities. Also they were recognized as being the financial bucket in this Country. America seemed to be theirs as if they bought it with money. I often tell myself: “democrats give it to you. Republicans take it from you. I feel like the Black community has many leadership skills. Many of our Black leaders have helped put this U.S.A. together. We have just learned how to take a back seat. Even though in today’s world we tend to speak up. Are the bias we have against each other based on dislike or just the differences in heritage

Everywhere we turn in our society we are bombarded with labels. People become who they are in our society not because of their true identity but because of the label we put on them. We are encouraged to live by labels put on us and become that label. Our white race is often labeled as being a superior race with benefits and opportunities withheld from others. And many upon accepting themselves and finding their identity try to live up to that label. Our Black race through the history of our Country have been labeled as being underprivileged, having a high crime level and being non-achievers. And many try to live down to that label. Our seniors are often labeled as being over-the-hill, not capable of living independent strong lives and losing wisdom (but wisdom comes with age) and many live down to that label losing their ability to function using their years of wisdom and understanding by not using it. These are just a few of the many labels that we let define us. But these labels are just stereotypes that rob us of our true identity.
Sometimes we are made to achieve things because of labels put on us. Labels don’t have to be the negative labels that they often are in our society. But for some reason we take more pride in placing and living by the negative labels. When a child is raised with many words of praise and positive labels put on him he usually becomes a confident independent person. Upon the child being made to disbelieve in himself by putting crippling labels all on him he usually grows trying to live down to those labels. In the conditions in our world today we are continually throwing negative labels. And more and more people are losing their true identity and living down to those labels.
Have you been out in the forest yet? What color are your leaves ? Children sometimes grow fast. Have they been running around using up some of that stored energy? Have they been experiencing all the freedom of a child?
Everytime we turn around the news is reporting a drive by shooting where à child has lost his life. If not that it is one being molested, killed in a house invasion, killed in grievances between their age màtes, or just by accident. We need to help them find themselves in peace. Today they seem just be prepared for the unruly world of tomorrow. Before they have grown they are becoming grown-ups.
We need to go in the forest with them so we can continue to grow instead of fighting on a war ground. Let them be children finding themselves . And becoming the next generation. Once bloomed we’ll.have a beautiful garden.
