well defines the state we find our beloved country in. That is if you have eyes to see and ears to heard truth, if you have a thinking and pro-knowledge approach to life, and if you evaluate what is being said and what is being demanded of us freedom loving people. What are the crossroads you might consider? They are many, for sure. I believe the cross roads we are encountering are those involving control in/of our nation: Control over our fuel industry, control (or lack of) over our borders, control over the news media, control over our elections, control over our medical personnel, control over gun ownership, control (or lack of) over governmental spending, control over “vaccine” administering, …and the list goes on and on. These are many of the major issues that we can see so readily, if we are trying to stay informed and help get our nation back to some normalcy. In truth, many think today that there is no normalcy at this point with the craziness of a national leadership gone wild. So, Mr. and Mrs. America, now that you are facing, living through the issues of our nation, our states, our localities, what are you willing, hopefully wanting, to do to make a difference? Will you be sheep or lions? Will you stand for right when wrong faces you head on? Whether we want to take or don’t want to take the vaccine is a big issue with the government today. Truth is, as an American, we have the right to speak up, to determine what we do. We have been a free people, with freedoms to say yes or no to what happens to our bodies. What if the government requires everyone to get a vaccination, and we don’t want to take a shot because there are issues with the safeness of the vaccine? Will we cave in and take a vaccination though there are issues with its safety? What if your child goes to public school, and the school makes

your child go through training that you do not believe in? Will you be informed enough to know what is being taught? And if you are informed, will you go to the school and require that your child not be taught CRT or lack of respect toward others because a child is labeled for some reason? Will you be pro-active for your precious one? And, as Texans, we know about the horrible situation at the border. Illegals are crossing into our state at an unbelievable rate. Governor Abbott has been leading out in helping our state by approving funding to complete the wall in order to secure our border; he’s authorized Texas law enforcement agencies to arrest and confine anyone trespassing on private property; and he’s allowed jail capacity to be expanded for illegal immigrants arrested for criminal activities. So, we Texans should consider how we can help our state with this border issue. Donations are one good way to help, since it’s difficult to physically go there and be directly involved. Too, we can vote, and we must be informed when we vote. There is a point for discussing these rights of vaccinating, for asking about involvement in your child’s education, and for asking you to help in Texas issues. The point is we must be prepared, be ready, and we must be willing to stand strong for our rights. We cannot be sheep; we must be lions who are ready to oppose evil when it rears its ugly head. We must be strong whether united with others, or when standing alone.
