So here we are. It’s almost the turn of the year and things are still up in the air. Are we in a recession? I still have not heard a definitive answer on that one. Some of us are looking for a new public enemy number one. The thrill of bashing Bush style politics has lost its luster. What is an angry American to do? If we watch or read the news one would believe the world is going to stop spinning if we do not find a quick solution to the global financial crisis. How faithless have we become?
Speaking for myself, I can not allow these negative influences around me to effect the positive future I believe we still have before us. If we place our material wants before the basic needs of our minds then we are destined to become caught up in the turmoil. We need a strong foundation to lay ourselves on. By foundation I am referring to the essential existence of a strong desire and will to succeed. Do not believe the hype! As more things get convoluted and unsure, opportunity will surface for those with their ears and eyes open. New billionaires’ will me made, old traditions will be broken, new works of art will be created and sadly not all men will rise to the occasion.
