Restore Sanity





November has slipped right in, and I'm freezing. The handy space heater is churning at my feet, as I type. The temperature is 68 degrees, that is cold enough. The Fall Funk, has begun, and it will take all that is in me, to combat the blues. I think that the time change is coming this weekend, and that will send me spiraling into the valley. NOT TO MENTION this political mayhem, that sickens me.
Tomorrow we are suppose to vote, and I hate both sides. The "D's" and the "R's" are out of control. I think I will write in, Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert, the only two voices of reason. They held a rally in Washington this weekend, that had me crying and laughing at the same time. I'm so thankful, that while waiting for the football game, we happened upon this jewel. When Cat Stevens/Yusuf, started to sing Peace Train, the damn broke. Tears flowed, I had traveled back to the sixties, when the people spoke the truth. This converted Muslim on the stage, introduced by a Jew, followed by Ozzie Osborne singing Crazy Train, followed by The O'jays singing, Love Train!!!!! Me standing and singing, All we are saying is give peace a chance!!!!!!
Intolerance will not be tolerated, was plastered on a protest poster. Hallaluyar!!!!
John Stewart , referring to the media circus said, "If we amplify everything, we hear nothing!"
He also reminded us, that we do work together everyday, side by side, even with different religious beliefs, political beliefs, we Americans can and do work together, so why this big divide now??? We may have an atheist obstetrician, a Latino carpenter, a gay banker, a fundamentalist salesperson, and we still manage to live and work together. Even when the time changes and fall temperatures dip, and I hate all Republicans, and some Democrats, my goal is to Restore Sanity, and work together for my happiness and yours. So I will vote, and change my clock back, and go to a dance class( to help my mood) and continue to love.
Mother Theresa said she saw Jesus in every face!!! Good lord, she was a saint, I'm a work in progress.
