Challenge: Change? First 100 days...


What will you do to help the next president of the United States change this country?

We have all listened for weeks to the rhetoric of change from both parties. The reality is that with very little money available and an impaired economic foundation, the larger government action that we all want is very unlikely to happen.

I propose that we all identify something that we can do to make a difference in our community and go out and do it for the good of our country. Don't seek recognition. Just do it.

Patronize a local business that you didn't before.
Volunteer at a shelter or a church.
Become a mentor/tutor and help a student.
Make a list of things that you and your family can do and then check them off.
Influence and talk to your kids about the hard issues.

Is it really so hard to come up with a list of things that you could do for others? try...

If we all had our own "First 100 Days", just imagine what this country could accomplish.

We live in the greatest country in the world.
We are blessed beyond all reason.

I will do this with my family and we WILL make a difference. No matter who wins, we will do our part as citizens and seek to be an instrument of change for a world that sorely needs it. We have been and remain mavericks in our thinking and plans and we will use that energy to Love our neighbors.

Faith, Hope and Love.. The greatest is LOVE.

DO NOT WAIT for the government to succeed or fail.
DO NOT simply vote for change! Lets go make it happen. One person at a time, one family at a time... We can do more. We should do more. Lets roll!
