Daily Prompt; New Internet Order

All the world’s…
I Need To Talk To You
I need to talk to you God
I know you are watching
With tears in your eyes
As this beautiful earth splits from the skies
The news is not good
Your people are lost
Fighting, poverty and greed
At what price and what cost
Oh Lord I know you are waiting
For all eyes to fall upon you
Other than praying Lord
What can I do
How can I help
Those who do not see
That it is you we should follow
And not that of greed
I hear of shootings
And terrible crashes
Innocent children
And parents bashing
Women being beaten
And children being whipped
Men losing their pride
As jobs are being ripped
Oh Lord I can see what
Is happening today
But I am one voice
And I no longer know what to say.

Daily Prompt; New Internet Order
http://dailypost.wordpress.com/2013/10/03/daily-prompt-leader/, DP, Daily Prompt
All the world’s countries have decided that the Internet itself needs a government. Your country asks you to run for Prime Minister of the ‘Net — do you accept? If so, what will your platform be?
Photographers, artists, poets: show us LEADER.
I should be so honored, but sorry, I am not. I would be ashamed to accept this low down position. You are sitting there right now with eyes wide open and hands gasping over mouth, right?
I don’t normally make it a habit to discuss any politics. For one reason, I don’t know enough to be outspoken. For another reason I believe what I believe and I don’t want someone tearing that apart for the sake of argument.
Do you want someone dictating to you your every move? Do you want to be scolded for using too many internet hours?
Do you want a stranger reading every word you write?
The more you let a big corporation into your personal life, the more I feel like we are having our souls ripped out of us.
One day we will be alien to who we are and we may even have to report how many sheets of toilet paper we used to wipe our ass.
When and if we ever go back to a country that is for the people, by the people, one nation under God, I may change my views.
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.
But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate — we can not consecrate — we can not hallow — this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us — that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion — that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain — that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom — and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
These are my own opinions I express. I am not trying to change your views or your beliefs.

The Gift
As you all know because I have crammed it down your throats yesterday, today is National Multiple System Atrophy. There have been so many comments on my Face Book page that I haven’t been able to blog. Believe me I am not complaining. People have lit hundreds of candles in his name. Some have donated in his name. Others have worn purple as I still am today.
I was going through my comments and found this precious gift for my brother and I wanted to share with all of you. None of you have met my brother, but I believe in my heart you know him very well.
Dianne Cogar I see that man Al use to be
There in his eyes still strong and free
Though his heart yearns for better days
He knows deep down this is no phase
He fights through tears, through aches, and pain
And hides them well as his strength wanes
He knows too well what lies ahead
Though it is certain he has no dread
For in his heart I’m sure he knows
That as time passes his purpose grows
For from his experience, his loss and win
Those in the future will profit in
And in Al’s name there will come a time
When his legacy will be the sign
That those like him will face less dread
For answers will reach them just ahead
And in their hearts will always be
The man who brought the world to see
For Al’s a fighter, a leader, and more
A man with purpose we all adore
Without a doubt his heart stays sure
One day they’ll find the perfect cure
Here is the correct and easy route to the M.S.A. page if you want to light a candle for Al today.
