Faithful March on Washington

It’s easy to give up — although harder in the long run. You have a home that unscrupulous people wish to take, despite the fact that they have been paid, you have creditors who wish to take your last dime despite the fact that they too have been paid many times over. It’s confusing and paradoxical to think that you are in the driver’s seat, that you don’t owe them any money. But it’s true. Your attitude about rising up and asserting yourself in appropriate ways is the model for yourself, your children, and those around you. Be practical and be firm. Fulfill your obligations to yourself and your family by opposing the forces of evil that are attacking you, intending to maintain you in economic slavery forever. Free yourself and your world by allowing yourself the attitude of just causes and ultimate justice. Educate yourself. Don’t take my word for it, make your own decision.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK:

“The longer I live, the more I realize the impact of attitude on life. Attitude, to me, is more important than facts. It is more important than the past, than education, than money, than circumstances, than failures, than successes, than what other people think or say or do. It is more important than appearances, giftedness or skill. The remarkable thing is that we have a choice every day regarding the attitude we will embrace for that day. We cannot change our past … we cannot change the fact that people will act in a certain way. We cannot change the inevitable. The only thing we can do is play out the one string we have and that is our attitude. I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me
and 90% how I react to it.”
