My goal when I started this blog was to
focuses on my political opinions, how ever my mind has been moving in
another direction over the past few mouths. I can no longer stand by
and tell my self that our problems can been fixed through politics’s,
because our problem does not lie in our political system. We as a
culture are the problem but heaven forbid that we actually change the
way we live. Today my heart is breaking over the loss of life’s in
Connecticut, and yet I know as a nation we will look for some one or
some thing to blame. I find myself turning off the TV not because of
my grieving heart but because ever one keeps saying the same thing.
“It time for us to put our politics’s aside and come up with
solutions that matter” and in the next breath they call for new gun
laws. We as a nation are in denial and as we look for some one to
blame, we will look ever but not in the mirror. The truth is that I
am to blame and so are you. The problem lies in the fact that as a
nation we have spent the last fifty years devaluing life. Many will
look at my words and attack me for them all the while never looking
at themselves. Perhaps a good place to start is the topic that our
nation loves the most SEX.
Sex has become some kind of casual
form of entertainment, that has no true value on our life's but to
provide a fleeting moment of pleasure. It is now viewed so
nonchalantly as to be seen as a goal to achieve on a first date.
Others see it as the same as love and even call it making love, this
is a bold face lie we tell our self’s to justify the misuse of this
sacred power of procreation. I hear from time that through sex a
couple will form a closer bond and this is true but not until we
first sacrifice all of our wants and desires to provide stability and
security for our partner. We must be totally devoted to that one
person forever and be prepared to lose our lives for our families.
Not just morality but rather we must sacrifice our own wants and
needs for those we truly love. Sex must be keep with in these bounds
to protect our families and our nation from the great power it wilds.
One of the biggest causes of the
problems we face these days is due to the broken family. Children
born out of wedlock, spouses refusing to be selfless with in their
marriages and the mainstream acceptances of divorce. This leads to
absent fathers, and negligent mothers who believe that raising a
child can be done with out the help of a man. Let us be not confused,
if some one impregnates a women they are not a man, but rather a
selfish little boy. A man is one who despite his fear and
inconveniences does the right thing regardless of the consequence. A
real man will not dull his senses with pornography nor will he
attempt to dishonor himself by the missuses of such a sacred power as
sex. Real women would not advertise their body for the use of men,
much like a candy bar to devour the goodness and discard the
wrapper.
Perhaps even more destructive to our
nation is the concept that when a women becomes pregnant that she can
make the choice to execute the child in the womb, and some how we
think that the acceptance of this act does not lead to the devaluing
of life. How can we look at our self’s in the mirror and truly
believe that conveying a message through out the nation, that it is
okay to destroy unwanted babies does not harm our nation. Or how can
we look our children in the eyes and not believe that this practice
does not lead to the massacres we now see through out our nation.
I know we will now have many
discussions about violence movies and video games, we will try to
remove guns from our Nation and yet we still not fix the problem.
Because the problem is US all of us. If you and I do not try to
become better people, it will not matter what you do. No law can fix
the problems that we face in this nation, because it is we the people
that are broken. You do not have to believe in God to recognize the
destructive path we are on, and I do believe that violent movies and
video games are part of that. But it is our responsibility to not
participate it these destructive things and to allow others that thou
we stand by there right to do them we will do what is right. It is by
this that we shall change, it is by this that changed has all ways
come to the world.
