Youth

It's where our enemies try to end run us.

They are trying to rob us of kids who think for themselves.

There is such enthusiasm among the youth.

We have tried to inspire independent thinking in our kids.

Yet, we know there are those who try to muddy the waters and they will try all through the rest of their education and frequently in all of life.

Many of us have weathered storms whether just attempts at confusion or outright attacks on our credibility.

Some of us have lost friends and family taking a stand for Freedom.

Certainly recently some of us have had attempts at either character assassination or attempted damage to our psyches/stress levels.

We weather the storm with dogged determination that we will triumph, that we will make this Republic what it should be.

Teach the children well.

Teach them to think for themselves and to question.

My kids and I don't agree about everything. We are not in robotic lockstep.

Yet, concerning Freedom and the purpose for which we are here, our love of history sees us through.

It takes effort to raise kids to be independent thinkers and doers.

It's worth more than its weight in gold.

All the time, collectivists hammer us and try to take as many kids with them that they can.

One of their 'hopes' is that those of a certain generation will die out and not leave enough to take up the banner of the Republic.

The libs take their time, whittling away at Liberty.

If only they can take the great energy of youth and channel it into idealistic efforts to further, unbeknownst to them, their own enslavement. Unthinking verve is like a flood, rushing and destructive.

If we take an active hand in determining how kids think, we can show the libs for the shallow manipulators they are.

And that flood becomes a force of nature that cuts through like a stream irrigating the fields of Liberty.

And if you have no kids of your own, 'adopt' some.

Be an example of what to be in spite of any flaws you have.

Show how to rise above them for the lasting good of Freedom.

I've known and taught a lot of kids over the years.

I made sure they thought for themselves.

Sadly lacking now but not gone. Your kids are lucky .

We've been fortunate with neighbors and church friends too.
