Comment on What Is Love? by Becca

Love is not some in depth conspiracy that should only be said when you finally decide you feel like this person may be “the one”. It’s just not that intense. Love is everywhere, & people don’t say it enough. My best friend? I love her! I tell her all of the time! My brothers? My sisters? I love them, too. I tell them nonstop. Boyfriends when I had them {i’m married now} – I loved them, too! Even at your age. Did I think I would spend forever with them? Pshhh, no. It was a nice idea, but I knew we were too young for forever. But if I loved them, I told them. Maybe it would appear to be too nonchalant, but it was the truth. & tomorrow is never promised. Just the other day, I read an article written by a complete stranger – a woman who lost her husband while serving our country in Afghanistan. Her story touched my heart, & I just felt nothing but love for this young woman afterward. So, along with praise & encouragement, I told her “I just love you!” =) Love is love, & there’s just not enough love expressed in this world anymore. Don’t wait around to express love, because tomorrow is never a guarantee & you never know how much joy you might bring into someone’s day with that simple little phrase.
This was a very cute article. &I’m not here to crush dreams or bury fairytales… I’m just telling you what I wish an older, wiser young lady had done for me a long time ago. Take care, chicky. Love ya! XO! =)

Hi everyone!
I was also very sad or i don’t even know how to put it… when I saw the movie.
i don’t know about you guys, but although we have to face the reality, which can be cruel so often, but sometimes I need to see a movie, where everything is possible, everything has a great solution. This gives me strength when I feel uncertain, but clearly this movie has a lack from this point of view…

Comment on America the Beautiful… and Lazy by Antonio DeAnconia

Wow, great points Megan. Never really thought about how laziness is slavery, but it is because even though those people aren’t working the fields, they’re not free. They’re dependant on the government to meet their needs. How can we get them to want to be free? Give them hope? I guess it’s not by giving them more stuff. Where would this country be if those millions of lazy people caught the flame you describe? If their gifts and insight were contributing to us all?

Megan, outstanding and insightful article. Many of us, especially as we get older, tend to forget about that first spark that made the world shimmer…we have gotten jaded by life`s disappointments, and after a while it turns into a rut that we can`t dig ourselves out of. Thank you for reminding us that as long as we are alive and breathing, that spark still exists…we just have to have the determination within us to rekindle it.
