HOW ABOUT OUR CONCERNS 9:16 AM


What concerns do we as group members, care2 members, and private lives concerns us the most.
We often forget our true feelings on and off the stage! We sometimes dramatize our thoughts through our speech, communications, and body language. What true concerns are we really feeling? Do we care about Wildlife, Conservation, Human and animal rights, environment, waters, mountains, fields, farmers, Global warmings, space, science, religions, tribal laws, teaching our young, protecting Mother E
arth, etc. or are we really fantasizing and just wanting attention?
How often do we really get involved? Are we truly ourselves? How about our Troops? War, hatred, politics and their games? True warm feelings on our part toward others? Those mentally and handicapped folks and kids in wheelchairs, trying their best to prove they can do many things we can? Do you feel sorry for those inflicted with disease and rotting away? Our elders, who =, many are placed in group homes and senior citizens localities because we take not the time to deal with them or in that line of thinking, do not want to hear what they have to say? The druggies and the drunks? Who really cares?
How often do we as people, really think? Are we doing all we can? Do we support their true needs? Can we actually say, we do all that is necessary? What achievements and thoughts have come to center in our society? These many questions and more surface everyday. Our lives are so busy in this fast-paced world, we rarily stop to think about them. The sadness and heartfelt soul-searching is often as not brought out or thought about. "You see that is my job, so when I am through for the day, I don't think about those things"! I bet you heard that one, or thought about it yourself... What message do we impart to others? Are we truly true blue to ourselves and others? Sometimes we soul search and find the answers and yet, other times are to bashful or ashamed of what we do not understand.
What we do with our lives, is solely up to us. We seek answers, but can not penetrate the smoke and haze that surrounds us. Like our Goverment, many times they will throw out a tidbit here and their, but place the fog and mist in front of us to be blinded by the true message that is their! We search through curiosity and knowledge, but at the same time, we seek what we want and not what others seek. We are a protective species and zealously guard our most private and intermost lives! We attempt to make goals and try to make a difference, but does anyone really pay attention? We have and always will face trials and tribulations in this restless and free state of affairs we are in today. What is right? What is wrong? Go around or sidestep? How about our concerns? Are we really ready to listen? I think not! For we are what we are!!!!! Only human and think of ourselves, weak, strong,emotional, all these and more,for what it's worth.... TomH

Interesting comments there Tom, well said on some topics, and some i don't agree with but thats what you want right ??? LOL. As long as you belive in what your doing thats all that matters.
Personally, if i didn't care about the enviroment and animals, mamals etc...i wouldn't be here.
