Commitment and Caring

Now that you're older and more distant of the rat race, you have the authority to speak your mind... no pissant company tool to report your aberrant behavior on your chart, no one but the law to question your beliefs.

You can now afford to support your cause, in a far more direct way than to write a check. You are a physical entity rather than an account number. See and be seen, hear and be heard. Stand and remain standing. Pressure from people like you ended the war in Vietnam. The war then didn't run out of money. Dissent and disagreement on a world scale ended occupation there. Now it's a major tourist destination. Make the entire world an unlimited tourist destination. Explore culture and ethnic specialty. Travel is exposure and education. Understand why things remain in conflict and do what it takes to chip away at the mountains of inhumanity. Enjoy and exercise the freedoms left in this world. They are an endangered species now but will always resurface as the trickle-down of any administration just the way a reinstated draft will certainly get the complacent up in arms about the current war. When it's our kid in the line of fire, we get concerned. Speak up and be unafraid to listen and learn.
