I’ve discovered personally that it’s in the little things where we fight our most important battles.
Attacking a Belief Structure
I’m reconsidering how I think about my country. It’s clear at this point that many of the assumptions I’ve made in my lifetime aren’t valid. I’ve projected my view of the person I want to be (and fail to be) onto my country. The population of the United States is not good, moral, acceptant, unselfish (generally), and caring. Neither do we see or care about the big picture, or the world in general. We only care about those last two if aspects of them impact us negatively and personally. This is the United States of America. This is who we are.
