I don't know how to talk about things lately. It seems like conversations with friends and coworkers either leave me feeling like I'm preaching to the choir or like it's totally hopeless. During the election there was a fun spirit of debate and discussion. Now, it seems everyone has retreated to their corners and you either totally agree, which makes for boring, lackluster discussion, or you're unwilling to engage in open minded discussion. There is a terrible, quasi religious zealotry from those who support Obama that creates a hostile environment for any who disagree. It's anti-American lately to disagree with him. You can still do it, but you have to be willing to live with the consequences and that is the scary part. We all seem more divided than ever right now. I don't feel bi-partisan and I don't get the feeling the other side does either...
I hate to say it, but I sort of miss the campaigning... It's all just depressing now.

As depressing as it is right now I actually fear it could get much worse. It doesn't take much listening to the news to feel a bit terrified for the future. North Korea is adding to the fun times with their shenanigans. Many have told me the end-times collapse can't be too near because there is so much the Church still has to accomplish but I'm beginning to wonder about various time tables.
Well, we should all enjoy our beach vacation this summer to the hilt just in case it's the last. I'm hoping my next-life mansion (no matter what size) at least has a pool!
I DON'T miss the campaign season! That was too nerve-wracking. BUT,I'm sure getting interested in who the 2012 presidential campaign will bring to the fore. The constitution IS hanging by a thread and the sizzors are in Obama's hand.
PS. LOVE the bumper sticker!
