It's Time For War!

I remember November 4, 1980, the year when Ronald Reagan won the Republican election for President of the United States.

At the time, my women friends and I all said that our country was moving backward in the area of Women’s Rights – and we were right!

Fast forward to November 4, 2014 and what has changed?

You may say that it has not only moved backward, but it’s taken a quantum leap into the Dark Ages with the election results this week – not only with Women’s Rights, but LGBT Rights, Children’s Rights, Non-White Rights, and more.

How did we let it happen?

Apathy?

Ignorance of the issues?

Too much money in the 1% and not enough in the 99%?

It’s done and all we can do now is decide how to keep it from continuing, or happening again. Will people never bother to look at history and learn from it?

If you share my sorrow over this week’s elections, please make a commitment to yourself, your family, your community, your world to fight for changes in the future.

We used to be a great country, and we still can be again. Make your voices heard!

I blow you a kiss!

Olympic Tragedy

It is bad enough that Russia is still anti-gay, but the Olympic Committee is not going to support the gay athletes that are participating.

Read this article and explain to me why our star athletes may not voice their opinion on such an important topic as gay rights.

It feels like our world is becoming more hate-filled daily, rather than the loving, accepting world that so many people claim they want. Where can we start in making changes?

We can start with our small world - the circles of our partners, our families, our children - and move outward from there into our larger circles. I can't change the entire world, as much as I'd like to think I could. But I can start in my own small way here on this blog. 

I blow you a kiss!
