Well its been crazy around here. We went to Texas last weekend for 4 days. It's not a horribly long trip thank goodness it actually made it feel doable more often. Most of our family live there so we spent each day driving somewhere to see someone. His father is in the hospital and hadn't seen our kids in a few years and the same for my dad. I've been back to see my dad in half the time but my honey and kids haven't since we moved from there. It made me realize how long we'd been gone. My dad looked so much older and he's not in the hospital but has issues. T's dad was well....... in the hospital again. I feel for him he's had it rough if it wasn't one thing it was another for the pass 20 years. So okay that's whats been going on but I don't want to stray much further because that part could go on and on. I wanted to talk about something a friend and I were talking about yesterday.
My new friend is from Panama which I'd love to know more from her about. We have boys the same age who met while playing baseball, hers an only child and well mine wished he was an only child sometimes. (JK) We were talking about the recent child attempted abduction at our local Walmart. She says in her country they just kill them all..... the child molesters, rapists, murderers. While I totally agree in some cases but we live in a different country. We have made so many mistakes which if I was accidentally convicted of something I'd want someone to fight for me. There are so many people that have been locked up over key witness accounts only to find out that person was wrong. I could never be that person unless I was 100 percent sure beyond a shadow of a doubt. I know bad things happen to good people regardless if they were in the wrong place at the wrong time.
My honey says that if our country killed more we wouldn't have all the problems. Well yea but than wouldn't we become like some third world country unable to have a voice because you know when they start passing those kinds of laws by the government someone will takes things in their hands and run with it. Before you know it we"ll be living under a dictatorship and all hells will come out. I guess that's what we get chaos when we are left with a voice, too many voices not enough of them making any sense at all. We don't value education here unless you homeschool and take that into your own hands too. Too many thinking everyone owes them a living so they go out and steal, cheat and murder and not just the little guy. There is so much crime why? You name it probably happened. People can think of the worse things to do maybe I'm just naive but some of these schemes to get what they want wow if they had used that for something legal. The fast buck, more money, better car, something always over something. Something needs to be done but what? It doesn't seem like any other country is any better they just have less of it but they still have it. I just teach my kids how wrong it all is and move on and hope that they never find their way down that easy path that will lead to the forever path of destruction. It may not be the end of the road if they make that mistake but it will forever change their life path and make it so much harder. Too bad there isn't a book on moralities and the consequences so you can say see if you do this this will happen to you not because I'm telling you but this is the law. Because you know the mistakes you made in life they don't care or sometimes even believe, they want to make theirs on their own. We just had our parents scare us enough that if we ended up in jail for some stupid reason or not they were not going to help us. That's what I tell my kids with the always contradicting phrase but I love you so don't be afraid to tell me if your in trouble. It's not that I don't want to help you out of jail cause a tiny bit wants to bail your butt out but momma and daddy don't have the finances to help you so I guess your sitting there for a while. Harse but needed I think wait maybe not. LOL
