The times we live in

It is unclear to me how many people in this world live under the influence of anger and hatred however to me it doesn't even matter. My issue in these times is basic, we have become a material seeking community that seeks only things that they can see and judge by the same. Could it be possible that we have forgotten our true values? yes! Is it possible that we have allowed society to change us and not us change society? yes! We have lost who we are thoughout the years and we can blame no one but ourselves. Parents cannot blame the schools or teachers, we cannot blame Television nor churches we can only blame ourselves.

God made us all individuals! We were born with nothing, because we have nothing on this earth, everything has a name and a label that truly advertises someone else and not oueselves.

We have forgotten how to love truly with the heart. Instead will love with our calculators in hand, calculating how much a person can give me so i can live. We have forgotten true frienship, because again, unless my friend dresses like me or can afford to hang with me he/she is not my friend. Why? I am a unique individual! That mean i am and should be different than those around me. YES, i have friends. Yes, I buy Cloths. Yes, I work and party and shop until i drop. However, how can we forget who we are? How can we forget the needs of others? I choose to be myself no matter how much other try to change me. If someone tries to change me they are placed out of my life. God created all of us individually, each with gifts that others don't have. yes, maybe with similiar qualities but never the same. Even the most identical of twins are different in every way.

We have changed, because we have allowed stereo types to run our Lesbian Gay Bi-sexual Transgender youth, telling us that we a drug addicts, drunks, and fools. We have told our young people in general that they cannot succeed in life because they live in the "GHETTO" or they are not good enough because they don't come from wealthy homes. We have forced our youth to leave home and look for alternative ways to make money by becoming Drug Lords, dealers and even prostitutes just to survive. We have pushed our youth to drop out of schools by makeing it virtually impossible for them to see a future....because of the high cost of education. We place walls in our childrens lives and then beat them to the ground with our words when they have rebelled against everything, including us, God and what we believe.

That is not what God wants for us....or from us... whether LGBT or Straight God wants us to Motivate our children to continue in life and believe in their dreams no matter how big they are and help them meet their goals. We have gotten so out of control with making money to live in expensive homes, drive car that we cannot even afford, and wear cloths that half the time we can't even spell the name on the lables or read the lables because we have no education, that we have forgotten that we have a future generation that is looking at us, crying for help and searching for attention because they are afraid of their futures. Right now we don't even know if our children have a future, the economy has dropped, thousands of children in miami alone are living in the streets and going to school full time. It was heart breaking for me to open the newspaper the other morning and read that these children are going hungry in the streets, sleeping in parking lots and living out of cars, sleeping under bridges and in cardboard boxes trying to survive and yet they still go to school everyday. Do we not have eyes to see how big this is? Are we blind and Dumb? How much will it take to see that these children our future are sufferring?

My mother has breast cancer and it was even more heart breaking to sit with her in a office in Puerto Rico and see the number of people with cancer that are loosing their health insurance all because the government refuses to pay for their medical care. Then we wonder why so many people are dieing of these diseases. My mother lost her health coverage as of 2 days ago and her health care bill for chimo theropy alone is $6000.00 and change. Imagine my mother dies because of this, do i have a right to sue? By the time i am done with them I will own the insurance company.

Brethren, lets open our eyes and see what is going on. Look around you, watch the news, people are being killed for being part of the LGBT community. We are being denied insurance, we are loosing Jobs, we are going hungry, we are loosing our homes, yet, we don't turn to God.

Well, much love to all The BlueJay.
