Charity Begins At Home!!

"Charity begins at home" in light of recent events of Newtown i am feeling very disappointed in our state school systems in my opinion this is a matter of "national security" 43 school shootings since Columbine is unacceptable! Schools and ALL public places should be at the top of the list of safety in our country. However, to think arming teachers with weapons is ludicrous, they already overworked and under paid. Why is it that we have millions and billions to support sports and entertainment but when it comes to our children and education there is "no funding"? I SAY our priorities are messed up. It's common sense, armed security guards that are properly trained to deal with threatening situations; lock down drills and safety alarm systems for example if a window is broken in a school it should trigger a alarm and set off a school Lock down, we put alarms on cars why not our school system, metal detectors! How is it that we have soooo much money for our entertainment but not our safety! We have money to fight every bodies wars but our own and it makes our country weak and succeptable to more violence! Spikes in gun sales is ridiculous because if the government regulates that could mean that registered guns become illegal in the coming months, and i don't want every Tom, Dick, and Harry being able to carry a gun on the streets just because we have criminals on the streets. and the people that do have license to carry hand guns should have to go training at least once a month including testing and evaluation to carry, extensive background checks of not only the carrier but family members as well, and These high powered assault weapons should only b in the hands of highly trained service members and as much technology as we have in this country Americans should not be afraid to go to a public place because of high risk violence. Its time for action past the monetary talk of emotions. There are sooo many young people dying and i attribute it to the break down of the family unit parents so busy trying to provide a "better life" for there children they are forgetting to raise them with honor and respect! My pastor said it best "u are not your child's friend" there are boundries and hard decisions to make as a parent, my children have to earn everything they get with honesty and dillegence and that is preparing them for the harsh realities of adulthood. I am watching President Obama speak and i quote "that should not be a excuse not to try" America is full of ass holes and excuses, the truth be told we are a bunch of spoiled brats and its time to began the hard work of regaining our strength as a country. "No pain no gain" is the truth changing our mindsets of hatred and greed forget politics its about priorities its about common sense its about tough love!! And it begins in each and every home if our children dont respect us as parents they probably wont have much respect for others!! As parents we have to say no sometimes as i tell my children i dont tell you no to knock your yolo but if you dont respect the word no your life will be destructive. As my dad taught me NO is not a bad word it just helps a person mature and be able to rationalize and gain wisdom overcoming objection in a positive way builds a better success! A REAL APPRECIATION OF LIFE AND LOVE FOR OTHERS...CHARITY BEGINS AT HOME!!

 Churchflow!! My son got baptized today!!

I have to say today was one of my top five days in my life!! I am soooo proud of my children by God's grace they are growing up to b great young adults! I pray they continue down the path of wisdom and i believe wisdom brings success and joy and wisdom comes from God!! BTW...I sung in the choir today for the first time in yeaaarrrsss and led a song. I have to be honest singing in church should b easy but I struggled today. Although i feel i am being led in this direction...my mind says "expectations are high in church" especially in a "traditional baptist church" ...not like singing in the club to intoxicated ears and bangin beats...lol!! But I am going to trust that I am doing the right thing and i will b able to fully let go and let God and b a blessing to somebody!! Pray for me!
