Going through facebook as I'm taking a break from a little remodel we're doing, it dawns on me that some very old Christian acquaintances are not spreading the "good news" at all. They're spreading fear, disrespect, no hope, hate and the list goes on. Some, (are you ready for this?) SOME even used to back the donald. (as in Trump) Maybe they don't anymore, but still, anyone with a brain would have known that Trump is not exactly a sane person. He is egotistical and hedonistic..that's it. He spreads hate on so many levels.
However, I'm going to try and not ramble. My point of writing this is to say that it's very sad to see people who used to be filled with love and acceptance buying into the silly political machine that has them believing the world is evil and everyone who isn't in their club just needs to be avoided. That's why I am not connected with them. Mainly it's their decision; which I totally understand.
I don't hate them, I don't even really dislike most of them. I am however, utterly disappointed that they wound up like little political robots not thinking for themselves. The odd thing is that they think they have the answer to every little thing they say they believe. They have an answer for God. No mysteries, just answers and fear and disrespect. The worst part about it is that they spread this fear and hatred to their children. It's understandable though.
Well, I probably should avoid reading their comments. I have no idea why I do other than they were a huge part of my life when I was younger. People go their separate ways. The thing is, the people who have traveled and experience life, learn more than those who haven't. They seem wiser, more tolerant and filled with compassion. It's just an observation I see.
With that I'll go back to my dirty rehab job. Have a great day and until next time...keep looking up, keep loving, keep living. There's a lot of love out there.
