I have ended my subscription, so when it runs out, that will be the end. Seems blogs isn’t my format, but I guess I do better when I talk to common sense people face to face. But we’ll use the time we have. Even if one person understands….

I was talking with a friend who recently completed his few years in the military, going onto other ventures, and lives by common sense and integrity. But I was astounded when he told me he stopped trusting our president because of his support for Israel. He gave a couple of explanations, but none of it made sense. I then realized his reasons are emotion-based and not considered in real time. The times we live are difficult. To some degree, he has been brainwashed, or altered, in some areas of his thinking. Perhaps most of us to some degree.

Here’s what I see, whether anyone reads or not, but I post this on others’ sites. There’s a very excellent reason I support our president and many people continue to vote for him. He’s right. He’s also what was needed, very necessary, and our country would have been lost had the democrats gotten to power. I don’t know why so many couldn’t see it. It was so plain to me.

I saw people going along to get along, even hard-working, responsible people. But you can’t go along with bad. You have to stand, then others of proper understanding will feel solidarity and speak up as well. I can’t tell people how many times in my life, when I stood up for what is right, I found my “supportive co-workers” and friends nowhere to be found. They were strong and of common sense in talk, but when the time came to count, they were more concerned with their own livelihood. They disappeared into the backdrop. With some people, perhaps with children at home, I can better understand, for they should put their family first, but also know that by not standing up, they are making the times more difficult which is how we got to where we were prior to our president stepping into office. And their children will have more challenges because they didn’t speak up when they had the chance.

The reason all too-many children and teens have mental illness, are depressed, taking psychiatric medication, and are having grave difficulties in the social world is in great part due to society not living by common sense, displaying common sense, and being real sounding boards of honesty. Just recently, someone I had gotten to appreciate, considered her a strong person of integrity, lost it. Completely lost it. And she verbally attacked me with reasoning I had no understanding. I told her this. But I also understand she’s in an occupation that many are stressed out due to so many regulations and stress. She should find a different occupation.

I’m thankful that when I was growing up, for a time, I had friends of common sense, real life street experience, and we all challenged each other in our thnking. We also beleived each person is responsible for themselves. That’s very cool.

But children are living in a world with stressed out parents, often without both parents, and often without at least one parent always at home to guard them and be there. They’re living in a world with peers always on their Smart Phones, distracted. They’re living in a world with all too much distraction on their phones, television, and computers, such that they’re constantly thinking about things they shouldn’t be thinking about. They don’t need to be constantly worrying about diseases, medicines, and more. They don’t need to be constantly thinking about what they want or how they’re feeling. They should have high quality education with common sensed teachers, parents that work hard but are calm, spending time with them, time to play with their peers but not on electronics, real chores that takes a few hours per week (Working with hands is grounding.), perhaps working with the family small business (Then, they’ll know how to create their own business when they grow up.), and real-life talks with their parents. And parents need to stay together. When parents split, the children greatly suffer. I still remember when I somehow got the idea my parents were going to part. My world was destroyed. Until my mother explained they were together forever. I think television had something to do with that. And children from broken homes have so much difficulty trying to find a path to family happiness.

I know of two young adults who have children but are unmarried. Their “significant” other, from what I’ve garnered, has cheated on them. Yet they stay together, and one is having another child. I can’t imagine the problems that is going to create. Children’s sense of security, their belief in good, stems from knowing their parents are there, will always be there, and that the parents love each other, even when times are hard. Hard times come upon everyone. When parents go through periods of difficulty, even when they don’t seem to love each other anymore, but put their feelings on the backburner, think more of their spouse and children, often they eventually find real love. And the children feel safer. The excitement of early love doesn’t last. It’s what time and determination, putting what’s right first, that causes real love. And real love, like an aunt and uncle of mine, after 60 years of marriage, is worth the long years. I saw them like best friends. They had been through everything together, even disagreements and tough times.

Well, back to my friend. A man like him should be very happy to see President Trump in office. We were lost without him. Why? Because the democrats were allowing everyone into our country. Ridiculous regulations were preventing common sense and responsibility from being the way of the day. Children didn’t know how to learn and differentiate fact from fiction anymore. They were destroying society and our understanding. People were so easily duped. When I saw everyone wearing masks, that families were broken because of this issue, I knew. I told people, I’m not taking anything that hasn’t been proved to be effective. When I heard the vaccines (They aren’t vaccines.) were only partially effective, that everyone had to take it to work, I knew it wasn’t really a vaccine. The purpose of a vaccine is that once taken, you’re protected from those who haven’t taken as well. Then, I knew. And I also discovered only a very few would stand on principle, even if they agreed. Why? Because maybe they had a spouse or other family member that demanded they take the vaccine. So they had to compromise their understanding. And that causes many problems.

Do you know what happens when children see their parents compromising their understanding? When they see teachers doing the same? When common sense and reasoning isn’t the way of the day? They get confused inside. They get angry, sometimes at their parents. They don’t know how to process what they’re thinking and feeling because everyone won’t say what’s really on their minds. And they start to have problems. Trust is not the message of the day. That’s why we see so many problems among the youth. And they will be the parents of tomorrow. How will they lead? What will happen to the psychiatric industry?

So, why does my friend not trust our president. I trust him. I don’t agree with everything he says, because I think for myself. But I also consider that the reason I might not agree with him is I don’t have all the information. But I know we need a strong economy with far less regulations and taxation. I know our medical system is broken, because people should be able to afford insurance and we don’t need to be constantly told what’s wrong with us. And I’m not going to check the area between genitals and butt. Why would anyone ever look there? Let the doctor do that: if necessary.

I know there are all-too many regulations. My friend bought a new car. Look at all the technology now on them. Ridiculous. I don’t want a car having any controls over my steering, and certainly my brakes. I do like the back-up camera. You know that idle stop thing. When I was with my friend who bought the car, the salesman explained that was a regulation. Wow. What else. If I could buy a new ’72 GTO, of course with better gas mileage, but pretty much as it was, but with a 4-speed transmission, I would be the first person to buy. I know how to drive, back up, park, and all the rest. If people think the car will drive itself, they often become less able drivers. Thankfully, we have a president who understands choice. Let the market determine.

We need to stop terrorism and communist countries, but we need a president who knows how to talk and negotiate, never afraid, and putting our country first. But putting our country and people first, with time, we become better capable of helping others. You know, in the old days, when government wasn’t so big, neighors helped each other. When someone lost a job, neighbors helped, sometimes providing food, also helping them look for another job, and this caused a better sense of society.

Police and firemen must be able to do a good and quality job, not over regulated so they’re completely stressed out and unable to do a good job, keeping their minds in order, and making the populace feel safer. Then, when criminals are off the streets, when horrible criminals, some who harm children, are kept away, many put in the electric chair, then parents feel safer to let their kids outdoors, playing with their friends, and aren’t needing them to be on their cell phones all the time.

When I was growing up, the only phone was on the wall at home. If I wanted to contact my parents, I had to come home or call from a friend’s house. Otherwise, my friends and I were on our own out there. That’s how we learned to deal with life. We didn’t live in a state of fear. And we played tree tag. When one “new kid” fell out of the tree, breaking his arm, we told him he could no longer play with us because his getting hurt caused the parent to disallow us playing in the tree for a time. I’m not saying we were right. But life back then required us to think for ourselves. I fell out once, but only got the wind knocked out of me. So I was okay. Yes. I never told on my friends about anything. That was the code.

If you follow the rabbit of reason regarding what President Trump is doing, like talking with the Coast Guard Graduates, telling them to be all they can be, work hard, or building a fantastic and safer ballroom, being on top of AI, putting together a team that steps up. If you follow where the trail leads, then you’ll know why this president has saved America. We were all but lost. I could see it in people’s eyes. The light of understanding and common sense has gone out of too many. Many are still in the dark. They’ve either been brainwashed, corrupted, disinformed, medicates, and more. And too many don’t know how to come back to sanity and thoughtfulness. But with more and more common sensed people and real solutions, the future will be brighter.

God bless America.

**By the way, if the way I wrote seems a problem to any reader, I would seriously as that person to consider why. Why is common sense, real understanding, and facts so difficult to live by? Why must we live in a state of fear, worried about everything we say? Why don’t we speak common sense with responsibility?

Well, I ended my subscription, but apparently it continues on it’s own for a time. Here’s something: I met a friend, and we got to talking about careers. I suggested he become a mechanic with his mechanical background. Somehow, this discussion went on a tangent, but I’ll share.

We were talking about consciousness. He asked an interesting question: Have you ever become so aware of your own existence, of yourself, even as separate from all those around you? Hmmm… I thought. I told him I had that when I was seven years of age. Funny that…. He shared that it was difficult getting used to so he doesn’t think too much about that. I guess it was something new to him.

So, I looked it up online. Apparently, many people have had that same thing. Some people deal with it better than others. Some are then pondering. I think it’s a good observation. I told my friend, I think it’s something significant, that we are becoming aware of that from above. In other words, don’t be afraid of it, but don’t preoccupy/obsess. Perhaps, for some people, it’s the first time they’ve become really conscious. I think most people walk around in a state of semi-consciousness, aware but not aware. And that explains so very much. To some people, I would say pray about it, then don’t worry. We’re not animals. We’re human beings, and there is a wonderful mystery in all of that. Patience. Prayers.
