Money Makes The World Go 'Round

Hindsight is said to be 20/20. Foresight, impossible. Insight... too rare.

Imagine, if you will, a world of corrupt politics and greed, and then try to imagine it all changing to a beautiful world where all men are treated equal and government of the people, by the people and for the people exist in more than some sort of dream state.

The problem, some say, started during the Clinton years, when our nation started lending hundreds of thousands of dollars to people who were never going to be able to pay it back... Others say it is because of the war and Bush's policy of spend, spend, spend... There are many differing views and I can see good points in most of them, but I think these are all symptoms rather than causes, symptoms of somethings so much bigger, and I'm sure I've written something to this effect in the past...

The people in our government are career politicians and have lost touch with what an honest days work is worth, so much more than dollars and cents, it actually keeps things in perspective, reminding us how much we all rely on one another for the lives we live... Money won't catch us when we fall, not like the arms of our fellow men and women. But I think, (I don't know for a fact) that having millions of dollars might be enough to tempt me into trusting money rather than the goodwill of others...

I don't have the time to sit here and write out all my thoughts in the right words... but maybe my readers will get a glimpse of the point.

I'll leave you with this: as the times get harder, try not to let it make you hard... remember to trust the ones who God has put into your life and trust that our creator has a purpose and a plan. Only God has the hindsight and the foresight that is a 20/20 vision of reality.
