Take a stand...

If we don't see it, doesn't mean it's not happening...

Take a stand...

Tears fall from an abused wife's eyes as she cries
out loud but they never hit the ground,

Trees of the forest are being ravished by the thousands
but yet we don't hear the sounds,

Men and Women go to war to return home to
be treated poor,

Several things are happening around us that we
do not see first hand and the government likes that
it's apart of their corrupt plan,

We are all intelligent well read, written and spoken people
and we know that this corruption takes place,
It is a down right disgrace,

If we don't unite and take a stand, they will continue
there destructive plan and our children will be left to
pay for their greedy mistakes, while the world around
us disintegrates,

We must grab one another's hands and make a valid
stand, to do what is right in Gods sight and his perfect plan,

We can't set back and do nothing and expect something
if we keep letting them pull our strings, this world
could be heading to a new world order by 2019...

Here Here James. A well written call to peaceful arms. We can only inflict change if we do something and by sitting back and doing nothing we are complacent.

We sit back and complain but few reach out to try to make a difference. You are so right...we must unite to change the things we know need to be changed. One act, no matter how small can make a difference.

Whenever I'm feeling a bit down, I visit your page and leave inspired. Thank you for that!

it's scary that a local police makes a six figure salary yet the men that protect this country (military) don't have the proper care from the VA. the VA is failing, the military men should be paid the most in this country they risk their lives for our safety. bless every man/woman that gives themselves to defend this country.

yes, we should take a stand!! all the pain and hurt can be lessened by a helping hand, by smiles, by a shoulder to lean on, by a heart that feels and knows, or a listening ear. See a need- fill a need :) blessings dear James!!

Pretty much everything is said! Rich get richer, poor get poorer. Money is not everything but somehow everything seems to run on it. Everyone form of life is suffering from these greed addled mongrels actions.
You say the right thing James, we need to take a stand and believe. Good things always start small. A Powerful message and voice!
