Rinse and Repeat

Some quotes endure history much better than others:

 “You can always count on Americans to do the right thing – after they’ve tried everything else.” (Winston Churchill)

Here we go (as expected) proverbially defiantly arrogantly throwing everything imaginable against the walls of our Politics-Courts-Media-News-Justice Systems, Schools, Laws, Religions, Government, etc… – all the while expecting our own unique splattered flavors to be the only ones that stick.

Deeper into the “I, me, my” mentality we go – damn everything, or anyone else – just accommodate me, and those like me.

As it turns out, we’re slowly discovering that will never work – we could never really carve out an ideal existence for just some of us – we must consider all of us – we must always think, plan, and apply the principles of this nation equally to all of us – anything less (as predicted) will fail.

We are the national level illustration of “rinse and repeat.”

I pray for the day that this nation, that professes “…liberty and justice for all” will turn the corner, and actually be that nation.
