Morning Constitutional? I declare!

Talk about your morning constitutional! NO! Not that one! TMI! PIMP LOL. Though both seem to cause a lot of crap these days! So, we were studying American History with our girl and the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. Wow! What a great time we had and a fantastic reminder. These men foresaw when they pounded this thing out that this country would face times when it seemed to mean nothing to be an American whose God is our Creator, not the government! Two of my fave parts that we read? “The work of many minds, the Constitution, stands as a model of cooperative statesmanship and the art of compromise.” And: "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it!” Whew! I know a lot of the masses seem to think that our rights are Happiness. Just to be given. No! The pursuit of it. Work for it! Not whether it suits you or not. Pursuit! Is per suitin’ up for work. These statements made me wonder how anyone could not see that these men from so many diff backgrounds, felt it worth the efforts to work together and build these for the good of our country. We must remember we are a melting pot, yes! That melts into Americans! Who believe and follow our Constitution Independence, I declare! Indeed, it used to be a melting pot whose pot was the strength and wisdom and character of our Creator, holding us all together no matter what differences. And the melted liquid was Americans of all flavors letting off a sweet fragrance to our Nation, other nations and our Creator. Now, it seems to be the liquidation of first being an American. And the pot that held us together? Is being traded in for a fryin’ pan that burns us and stinks up the whole country. Just sayin’…  Finally, you know that your “other” morning constitutional isn’t always what it’s cracked up to be! PIMP LOL. But, The Constitution is! So, go have your morning constitutional or your evening and declare your independence.  Refresh your memory and read both with your kids or your grandkids or just yourself.  Be informed. Study…to show yourself approved.  Politcally, intellectually and spiritually.  Street Smarts is an avenue that must be walked to find the road to Intelligence and get going in the right direction!  Have a fun week.   Trace
