The Power Of The Pen
This post will be entered into a writing contest titled "How Writing Has Positively Influenced My Life" by Positive Writer.
Initially, I became a writer to let my heart speak the things that I was unable to say and to get the message of the Gospel out in an appealing way to an unsuspecting or otherwise unwilling audience. I let it speak through my poetry book "God Keeps His Promises".
I shared secret knowledge that was silent to the world but screaming to me.
Later, I used the skill of writing to solve social problems by becoming an advocate and activist about issues like "Global Energy" or "Addiction Recovery".
Or to solve a problem of a nation without health care or a nation of poor health.
But the most important reason that I love writing is because I have used it as a tool of self defense when social injustices are occurring.
Like a battered woman would tell her secrets of her husband abusing her after her marriage counselor told her to tell others what is going on and it turned the negative situation into a power tool for the victim against the abuser.
The pen truly is mightier than the sword!

2012 Election
I believe we need a new energy policy that will slowly but surely wean
ourselves off of foreign oil completely by heading toward clean energy
and domestic energy only.
There does not need to be one person who goes without basic medical and dental care without being charged unsurmounted bills that they would never be able to pay in this life time but we don't need any health care policy that requires the American people to pay for contraceptives or abortions.
Nor do we need any health care policy that burdens small businesses to provide health care for their employees when they are already struggling to stay in business as many companies have been in this failed economy every since 2008.
There are other ways that we can begin getting the health of this nation to head in the right direction by teaching the effects of poor diet while introducing new ways to prepare much of the same foods but by using healthier grains, sweeteners, and oils while adding in more fresh produce, seeds, fish and grains.
America needs to bring back as many jobs as possible that were previously outsourced by the Bush Administration in order for us to get back to our first nation status that China has recently taken from us.
We need to be buying all American as much as possible to create more jobs here in America also to bring our nation more gross production income so that we can begin to think about digging ourselves out of the trillion dollar debt that we are in.
I raised four children with $120.00 dollars a month and I know how to control a budget and live modestly within my means. As a nation we need to practice the same things that single mothers have been forced to practice for decades... if you don't have the money for it... you do without! You cut ALL wasteful and unnecessary spending weather it is comfortable or not.
For me that meant I couldn't buy a cup coffee at the local convenient store but I had to make my coffee at home and use a recycle mug each morning. For our government agencies and offices it may mean no printing, postal mailing, traveling etc.... unless it is absolutely necessary, It may also mean recycling older model transportation vehicles, and using refurbished computers, fax machines, telephone systems, desks rather than purchasing new ones.
Spending for education has got way out of hand and there is much waste, theft and unnecessary spending in that department and many other Governmental agencies and departments.
There is one marriage honorable unto to God and that marriage bed is undefiled between one man and one woman only. God honors those who honor HIS word. Since HE hates the shedding of innocent blood (ref. Proverbs 6:16) then it is common sense if we do something that HE hates HE would have good reason to be displeased with us.
I believe if HE says we are to honor it in HIS word then we should honor it in our nation. It is clear all through the word of God that if we keep HIS word HE will fight for us, protect us, bless us and keep us. It is also clear in HIS word if we turn away from HIM that we have put ourselves in dangerous territories by getting out of the will of God.
Other countries have welfare programs similar to our social security system and everyone in their country does public service on a regular basis then if you ever need the welfare system to help you it is available because you paid it forward. We need a welfare over haul in this nation.
We need to do mandatory recycling and begin aggressively teach our children how to live responsible lives to themselves so that they will not be participating in socially inappropriate behavior that would put their health at risk. And begin to teach them it is all of our responsibility to protect our planet's resources from chemicals, from drought, from floods, earthquakes, hurricanes and from whatever else may threaten humanity in the short or long haul.
Our military is one of the finest world wide yet they have been over taxed with this ten year war. We need to continue improving standards for those who have served and continue researching what the needs are of active duty military as well as those who have returned injured from this war. They should also have priority when it comes to job placement for those who left their jobs to fight for us only to return to find that job no longer available.
The borders have compromised this nations security in many ways with drug cartels, illegal pornography and non Mexican illegal immigrants using that Mexico border to enter our country. The borders must be closed. There needs to be comprehensive work permits or legal residency status for everyone here but there does not need to be one person in this nation without proper photo identification on file with the immigration or social security administration.
That is just a few good things that we as a nation need to begin implementing so that we can move towards a healthier, wiser, more sustainable, and more prosperous, stronger and independent America.

No More Tax Cuts For The Super Wealthy
As a former precipitant of food stamps while raising four children on
120.00 a month and swearing over all my court ordered child support over
to the possession of the state as a welfare participant I can tell you
now, you only get what you need to feed your family. You have to report
any financial changes within 10 days and if you get caught cheating ...
you likely will lose any future benefits that you and your children may
qualify for... anyone in their right mind would not risk that
consequence. Those on food stamps are generally the back bone of this
country... the working poor... it is the top 2 % earners or the super
wealthy who have a problem with caring for the terribly poor even when
many of them broke their bodies building this nation!
