A person’s life doesn’t fall apart all at once; it’s the little compromises, little heartbreaks, little mistakes, that pave the way to decline and overwhelming despair. 1/6

A country doesn’t fall apart all at once, either. It’s not one thing, but a lot of things, that take us slowly to a point where we look around and say “Oh my God, what happened to this country?” 2/6

But Albert Camus’ words apply to a country as well as to an individual: “In the midst of winter, I have found there was, within me, an invincible summer.” 3/6

We have within us as a nation, just like we have it within us as individuals, to summon the strength that lies deep within us and decide to rise up. 4/6

It’s not what other people are doing but only what we are doing, that determines whether our lives are defined by breakdown or breakthrough, decline or rebirth, by fear or by love. 5/6

But we are at a point where we have to decide; to not decide is a decision in and of itself. To think we don’t have to radically change is to foster our societal decline. In the words of Abraham Lincoln, “As our case is new, we must think anew and act anew.” It’s the 11th hour, but it isn’t midnight yet…there’s still time if we will use time well. 6/6

From what point are we supposed to be declining? What used to be better for poor people, minorities, women, immigrants?

This is almost prophetic. It surely is the 11th hour for America. Where she goes at this critical tipping point, will determine the making or breaking of her future. If we make the wrong choice, Lord have mercy on us, it will not be the demise of this young country.

Should have heeded your own words when you treated a victim of government’s corruption like a worthless idiot in Rock Hill. You had an expert on government’s constitutional treason and called him a liar in public. You’re not leadership material!
