Good afternoon as we wind down to the end of the week here. My football team had a bye this week and will have to wait till next week. Boo hoo. I want to share this wonderful story by my good friend Jeri Hinkle of Oklahoma City Ok. We have visit her a couple of times and she is a spunky woman at the age of 86 and a very,good writer as you can see. We wil be visiting her soon. This is me and Jeri a couple of years ago.This woman is remarkable I try to get her to join us here,for she is a great writer I think. she is my guest today. Our country is sick. The hate, greed, violence, anger, intolerance and paranoia just simmers and breeds more of the same. I wish we had some kind of instant fix for this. Unfortunately, there is no spirit of unity or compromise in our government or in our lives. I have grandchildren and great grandchildren who will never know what it is to live in a kinder, gentler time. I know it wasn't always good. I lived through a depression, World War II, Korea and then Viet Nam. I understand the depression and dejection of living in poverty first hand. How did we lose our empathy for those who suffer and are down trodden, sick, mutilated from a war based on lies, and homeless. I live in fear of another Hitler popping up. The climate is right for it. Donald Trump has no solutions but is stirring up Mega anger with his talk of a wall and banning refugees. Evidently we did not learn from the past and are doomed to repeat it. I like to pass this along to my friends here at mylot.
