The Rapture (Yeah Right!)

So today was supposed to be the "Rapture" of 200 million Christians and of course, because God is a mystery not a math problem, nothing happened and life goes on as normal. Children starve, grown men can't find work to support their families and people still lose their houses. Last night we had a girls night and we were talking about how messed up our political system is and how change can't happen within the youth of America because they have been raised with the lifestyle of instant gratification in all aspects of their lives. So we were talking about what we wanted to happen within our country and we came up with a couple great ideas. First, how about a television station that reports only good news and inspirational stories of hope, instead of fear mongering and scare tactics? How many times have you watched the news and just been disgusted by all the negativity you see and the horror of the stories. Second, how about a presidential candidate that doesn't spend millions of dollars on a campaign but instead takes that money and puts to good use instead of using it to further his career? He or she could depend on radio and television coverage instead of mean spirited ads and pointless signs that sit in people's front yards and end up in the trash. Third, instead of taking the arts and physical fitness out of schools how about add a mandatory survival class? Basic knowledge for the our children on how to raise chickens and if needed what plants to eat and which ones are poisonous. What we have is not sustainable forever. Nothing is, and we are totally heading for something that will change the way we live our lives today. We should be making plans! A Zombie Apocalypse? Seriously? Come on people. What if that really happened. Who do you know who would be able to survive? I know I can build a fire, but I never learned to skin a squirrel or rabbit. How would I eat? How would I protect myself? I walk everyday its not raining but could I seriously outrun a Zombie? HA! Things have to change! Obama promised a new way way of doing things and everything is the same. He's just like every other politician, maybe worse in some ways because of the hope he inspired and then failed to make it happen. Obviously we as Americans WANT change and go after those who promise it, but when they don't deliver why do we just sit on our couches, watch our scary news stations and say "oh well"? We should stand up for ourselves and the way of life that we desire! Stop taking it up the butt Americans. What if the Rapture truly did happen sometime in the near future? What if something terrible does occur in December 2012? What the hell are we going to do? We are a nation of specialists. Take away one set of workers, say the people who run the electricity in Pennsylvania and the whole state goes into a black out and people go crazy. What kind of legacy do YOU want to leave for your children? Stand up and make a change. For myself, I know I'm going to start doing research on edible plants in PA and the correct way to skin a small furry creature! I will not be caught with my stylish jeans around my ankles and my smart phone as the only way I know people's phone numbers. I'm buying an address book tomorrow! All I know is that what we have cannot continue like it has been without something happening. Weather its the end of times or a change to Socialism, or the Zombie Apocalypse, we must know how to function outside of our normal way of living. And if you don't like something about the way the world is turning, stand up and say NO! I don't support that dammit! I voted for this and you promised us this and we WANT IT NOW! No one can stop you for speaking truth. The truth is so powerful. So I say to all of you, who like me were not chosen for the "Rapture" today, something is coming . . .Are you ready?
