America was founded as a Christian Nation
Well, rather than ranting about The Powers taking away our rights it might be more productive to imagine - just for a split second - that might be there were never such thing as human rights?
I don't have the answer to this one. Try to ask Jenny
I personally think we "have" our lives to enjoy (as much as we can talk about "having" in a world without rights
). To enjoy our selves, our kids, our parents, our significant others, our relatives, our friends, and total strangers alike - and all the World that surrounds us Yeah me too. I look at the stars everyday and I enjoy them. I enjoy my kid as much as she frustrates me, I enjoy my moms dinginess and we fight all the time. I love to laugh at as much as I can. And I don't take for granted what I do have even if I do wish for more at times.
