I am going to restrict my participation in all things political to your "echo chamber" Bob.
The last 24 hours have taught me something.
I have had a tendency to take out frustration and emotional distress on fellow anonymous members here in the past and I am working very hard to change that behavior.
It gets hard when all of your deeply held belief systems are made fun of and attacked each day though.
Yesterday I received a phone call that broke my heart.
One of our own had lost a very dear family member and life will just not ever be the same.
I won't go into specifics or identify that dear friend but watching the last 24 hours unfold here I realize that there are just some people in this world who don't rate a response or an emotion from you.
In doing so, you lose site of those who really do matter.
So, my dear friends here.....offer up a special prayer today for one of our own.
Pray that they find peace through their Lord and Savior and that their hearts are made whole by his grace.
I can explain it to you but I can't understand it for you.
