We keep looking for other people to be our heroes, the government, the military, the police, our parents...
It is now time, let the bells of freedom ring in your heart, and become the hero or heroine you have so long looked for.
Like many of you, I have kept waiting and hoping for someone else to step up, new ideas, new ways, new methods to help create a better America, and a better world.
But what if the person we were waiting for, is actually ourselves?
I think we have so long depended on others to lead us, that we have forgotten what it means to be a good man and woman or human..
If we want to create a better anything, it is our responsibility, our honor, our pride our joy.
I know that after watching videos of Ronald Reagan, on youtube, that there is no other great leader to arrive, but for each of us to step up, and do a little more...
Bring us to that Big City on the Hill, but do it ourselves...
I don't know any secret ways or methods, but it just starts with 1 step.
Maybe it starts by caring more about our neighbors and neighborhoods, our towns, cities and states. Not to be localist or nationalist, as in caring more about what it looks like, and doing extra things to bring a new America.
By saying hi to your neighbors, getting to know them, to bring back the great feeling of fellowhood and neighbor-hood experiences we may have had as children.
The key is 1 step forward...
So what are you waiting for?
