Tuesday December 15 2015   HISTORY IS HAPPENING

Comment regarding yesterday’s blog when I said I just seem to be getting more and more behind.  Well today I didn’t even get to begin working on my Christmas project at home due to a change in plans.  It was necessary for me to go to the car dealership for a car repair.  I was there for about two hours.   Afterwards I decided to do a few errands so I would not need to do them later in the week.  So, by using up today I will not need to drive across town later this week since I accomplished everything today. Tomorrow is another day and I will accomplish (Lord wiling) what I must accomplish in regards to my Christmas project.

Tonight there is a Presidential debate on television.  I do not like TV to disrupt what I do but I will make an exception for this program.  I am trying to watch all the debates, both Republican and Democrat.  I want to understand the position of each candidate.  So this evening I am only making an appearance of writing, so as not to concern those who are faithful readers and wonder what is happening if I do not post my blog.  I hope you too have a chance to listen to the debate so that you will at least know what each candidate stands for and be able to make a sound and rational decision.  I vote for the candidate that proves to me to be the best choice and will represent the values that our country was founded on.

HISTORY IS HAPPENING

By Kathleen Martens

December 15, 2015

The day is short, the work is long

But this time to my poem belongs.

So I will say without ado

Though the words I write, will be few.

History is happening before my eyes,

And the television does not belie.

So I must go and listen well,

So I can think on what to dwell

I just pray that God’s plan

Will decide who is the man,

Or the woman, who will be

The one to keep our country free.

Good night and God bless you.
