PART ONE----NO LONGER ... HOLD MY TONGUE

PART ONE----NO LONGER … HOLD MY TONGUE

I take no pride in being involved in a feud because most of the time little is accomplished by feuding. However, the cold-hearted comments made by some American mothers and grandmothers about Latino mothers give cause for concern. And the fact that they call themselves Christians gives greater cause for concern. When Americans lose compassion for others, and attempt to convert that into an acceptable Christian principle it is something that cannot go unchallenged. Jesus is the undisputed leader of the Christian Church and his teachings should be paramount. However, Christians have wondered far from biblical teachings. This provides profound cause for stating: Americans are traveling down the wrong road, and if this is not corrected, it will bring about the end to THE GREAT SOCIETY.

The biggest shame I have witnessed in my lifetime is to watch adults rejoice while their homeland is being destroyed. How is it possible that a society of well-educated people can stand up and cheer while their country is going to hell in a handbasket? How much ignorance is involved in destroying one’s self? This is worse than any physical dependency drug ever known to mankind. The political consequences of what is happening in America are far more serious than any disease, and the outcome will be far more devastating. The moral fiber of a respectable generation is being destroyed and some American citizens are not only supporting the demolition, but cheering the destruction. This is one of the most foolish acts ever to be recorded in history.

American democracy is facing its greatest challenge. America is a weakened nation, deeply divided and deep in debt, and the vultures are sitting on the sidelines waiting. There is an outside force at work inside America with the determination of destroying one of the best governments ever known to mankind. The question must be asked, “Why are Republicans defending the Russians who are leading an attack on America’s democracy?” The intellectual degree of those who continue to support this kind of an administration must be taken into question. Something is bad wrong!

Donald Trump is desperate! If he does not win reelection in 2020 he will be facing jail time as a private citizen. Therefore, he will do anything possible to win reelection. America cannot take another four years of the Trump administration. Volume 2 of the Muller Report provides incriminating evidence that Donald Trump is guilty of at least twelve cases of obstruction of justice. The committees in the Democratic led House are not going to let this go, and sooner or later Donald Trump will have to face the music. And as far as America is concerned the sooner the better.

The Donald Trump administration is filled with lies and corruption. It is plain and simple that Donald Trump and his enablers are making a joke out of American laws and 1/3 of the population is sitting on the sidelines cheering. The time has come that these people must be called out and required to give an account for their behavior. No time in world history has political chaos developed faster and deeper than in America today.

Public opinion polls prove that the overwhelming majority of Americans think Donald Trump is a very, sick man. It is a grave danger for the USA and the world for a sick man to be in control of the nuclear codes. The best thing that can happen is for the House of Representatives to attempt to keep him under control, and the voters remove him from office in 2020.

There are countless numbers of American mothers and fathers who have no idea what the aftermath of the Donald Trump administration will bring for America. The United States has lost its moral compass. This is not only detrimental for America but for the world. When children see examples of leaders who represent success but are known liars and cheaters, it portrays the greatest deceit of all times. There will be a terrible outcome in teaching future generations that the way to success is by telling lies and being involved in corruption. These lessons will haunt Americans for years to come.

AND WE CALLED HIM BROTHER MYERS

I have written a book that tells the story of a famous, country preacher during the years of my growing up experiences in Louisiana. The church was the center of social activities, and this particular young boy spent many hours attending church services. In this book I not only relate some of the popular sermons preached by Brother Myers, but I also give examples of some things that happened in the church that were comical. For example, there was one night, during a serious sermon, that a big, bug got entangled in the hair of one of the sisters. To a nine year old boy comical reactions followed. That same bug began to dip down into the hair of other ladies in the congregation. Many interpreted their reactions as spirit-filled moments, but others saw the bug and knew the real story.

I also tell the story of the yellow jacket that got caught up under the skirt of Miss Nellie on one particular Sunday morning church service. Once again many thought that Miss Nellie’s actions were spirit-filled, but others knew that a yellow jacket was of the stinging type. The most exciting story that I describe is when Sister Simmons shouted during the annual church revival. Regular church members had learned to dodge the bobby pins that flew like bullets through the church when she performed her famous “head jerk,” procedure.

At the end the book I retell the story of White Sunday. It is an emotional story about an African Americn lady who wanted nothing more than her children to learn about Jesus Christ. So she asked permission for her family to attend a white church and sit on the back row. The act of having to ask permission and being forced to sit on the bank row disturbs me even until this day. This reminds me of present day evangelical Christianity, when a gay man is refused membership to a white church. Or when church members refuse to sit by same-sex couples in church, or when a sign is posted on the church door that says, same-sex couples not welcome.

From the beginning of evangelical Christianity in America, very little real Christianity has been portrayed. It is hard to imagine Jesus denying anyone the privilege of listening to his sermons. I speak with disgust, because it still gets under my skin that as a child I was brainwashed to take part in such unchristian edicts.

Moving from my soap box, I hope that many of you will read and be blessed by the book entitled, AND WE CALLED HIM BROTHER MYERS. The book can be ordered from Amazon.com and is part of my religious series.

GOOD MORNING CLASS

The vast majority of the world’s population has spent time in a classroom. Some of that time was interesting but most of the time was boring, some of the time was informative but most was a waste of time. The book GOOD MORNING CLASS is interesting, informative, and at times, emotional. Teachers, parents, and students, can benefit from the information contained within this book.

Most adults have an interest in what goes on inside the classroom. Parents have special concerns that their children are being taught by qualified professional teachers. This book proves what can be accomplished when a professional steps inside a classroom. Professionalism is required for a teacher to create an interesting environment for learning in a classroom filled with thirty or more diverse students. A professional is also required in maintaining order and establishing an informative environment conducive for learning.

Substitute teachers have a more difficult task engaging students in something other than what students call “busy work.” GOOD MORNING CLASS is a story of one day in the life of a substitute teacher who was determined to employ students in some kind of constructive learning other than busy work. In so doing he faced rudeness, criticism, and slander, which he handled in a professional manner. In the end, he gained respect from most of the students and managed to maintain a learning environment.

IT'S NOT ME

IT’S NOT ME

Mirror, mirror, answer me,
who is this strange face that I see?
Could it be someone I don’t know,
a different person in a different show?

For Father Time has not stopped,
the hands have moved around the clock,
And now I look and can barely see
the strange face that stares back at me.

But when I look deep into those eyes,
I see the roads and remember the miles.
I see the paths that I have crossed,
and remember the friends who paid the cost.

I read the signs along the way
and heard the many voices say,
so fast the time, so fast the years,
over distance meadows, and rolling hills.

Sunsets, sunrises, I have seen,
many happy times were meant for me.
But death did knock on my front door,
and say to me, “Time is no more.”

The creepy crawlers in the night,
came and tried to take my life.
But I awoke and cried out loud,
“This white sheet is not my shroud!”

There are too many places I’ve never been
and too many faces I’ve never seen.
Great bodies of water I have crossed,
and in a land of needy there were coins to toss.

I’ve talked with the living and held hands with the
dead,
And listened to the spirits play games in my head.
I’ve spoken in languages I did not understand,
and made peace with myself, in a far away land.

I’ve seen people with hands out needing coins to eat,
and watched hunger devour that wasn’t so neat.
I’ve seen people made happy with so little it seemed,
and I’ve learned great lessons about material things.

So if Father Time should say to me,
a little more time I give to thee.
I will use that time preciously.

But if I’m walking my last mile,
I will walk proud and I’ll wear a smile.
“If it’s minutes, if it is hours, if it is days…
I don’t know.”
But one thing’s for certain I’ve enjoyed the show.
