No Time To Clown Around
This is no longer a laughing matter.
I’m sure that Clarabell, Bozo, Ronald McDonald, and even the legendary pantomime Pierrot, would all agree that now is not the time to be clowning around in America; particularly when it comes to our children’s future. It can no longer be “business as usual”. Now is the time for all of us to get down to business!
There’s no doubt about it, laughter is still the best medicine, and although our children certainly don’t need a dose of adult humor, they desperately need less buffoonery, more adult supervision, guidance, and above all, their time.
If we are to even think about creating a whole new generation of young people who care, then we need to get downright serious and begin — The Great Reboot. Ya know, like when you shut down your computer, and it reboots itself — and you get a whole new screen that allows you to start all over again. Once you clear your browser’s cache, you can upload as much “good stuff” as you feel necessary.
Our brains are much like computers, only a million times more complex and a whole lot smarter. We don’t need Artificial Intelligence to tell us what we are capable of. We’re smart enough to make our own decisions; well, some of us are. Remember, if it weren’t for highly intelligent humans, there wouldn’t be computers.
My point is this, each of us has a choice as to what we want to do with the rest of our lives. Either we do nothing to protect our future generations from becoming mindless subjects to AI, or we teach them to think for themselves and fill their heads with all of the good things life has to offer. As JFK once said, “Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country. We need to spend the time we have left to leave behind a legacy that will spark future generations of every child born and conceived out of the womb of peace, love, and humility to understand their role in leading the way to bring peace to the planet. We need to teach them “right from wrong”, and that “The Golden Rule” is a simple, but powerful moral code to live by. Everyone has a stake and a responsibility in this.
What do you say? At least think about it.
Don’t wait to hear somebody, someday say, “I told you so.”
Think about who you are and what it is that you want to leave behind. If not for yourself, for the children of America; still the greatest country on the face of the Earth.
Blessings to you, and the beginning of a new world order my dear friends.

How true your words are! My parents had a plaque of The Golden Rule where we could see it every day. I want my legacy to be that I was a kind, compassionate and God fearing person. I strive to be an example for my children and grandchildren. My daughters have often said to me:”we had a good teacher!” Mission accomplished! I also often say to them: tell the ones you love “I love you” while they can hear it! And give flowers to those who enjoy them while they can see them! May God bless everyone with His abounding love🙏

I try to set a good example for my grandchildren. I talk to them about the evils of drugs, bullying, and not following the crowd if they know it’s not right for them. Once they are among their peers I know how hard it can be to not be pressured. I pray they will have my voice in their heads once in awhile.
