The true meaning of “Sacrifice”

What does the word mean without getting all technical? (My life is technical enough. Trust me on that!)

 

“To give something up” I would say. (Maybe for the “Greater good”. Sounds good, doesn’t it?)

During the 40’s, “things” were rationed. They had to be because of the war that was going on. The factories and the hard- working Americans in those factories were busy making war “things” without getting all technical. (My life is technical enough. Trust me on that!)

If you tried that now, you would have a full scale freaking riot over a bag of Sugar or a pound of meat.

I know that to be true. I observe actions at a local store that I shop at. (Especially when things are on sale) People go insane over saving a penny on a loaf of bread. I will say it again, it’s insane!

Or they will drive across town to save a penny on gas. There is a “swifty” for you. Not! Dumb as a “box of rocks!” I am a Christian and I shouldn’t be saying that, but it is true.

 

Our government coffers will be “bone dry” if we keep up at this rate. Few of us know that. Most are oblivious. (Too busy on “twitty or myface”) The ones who do know, we can count. And I am not being funny. It’s basic math.

A true American who loves their Country, in this case, America, would say hey, “since we are in a jam-O-rama, reduce my share 30 or 40 bucks per month. I will make do. It is for the “greater good: To save my Country’s ass!”

How many would do that? (I don’t get nothing or I would in a heartbeat! Why? America is in my blood. Like family, I would DIE for it.)

Not many would offer to cut their share. Trust me on that! It’s sick! A bad case of the “gimmee’s”.

That mode of thinking will destroy us and no one sees it! It makes me scream!

I am just one man and I have a boatload of great ideas, but who am I? A numbers guy. It wouldn’t make much sense for me to win their money and just give it back to them would it?

People on the “rolls” need to buck up and give a %&#$ for once in their life! (excuse the French, I am pissed)

It sickens me to the point where I want to puke over it.

I am talking to a couple of very smart guys from D.C. who are in the know. Things look very bleak, if things don’t change and quickly.

We all have to “bite the bitter pill” that tastes like &%$# to have any hope of saving the Country that I love and I hope that others do as well. Or they shouldn’t be here! Take a hike and don’t let the door hit you in your fatass (most likely, if you get foodstamps. I am in the know. You can’t help seeing the Blue card in their hand or the 15 boxes of Little Debbies or the 30 bags of chips and family size to boot. They are killing their self. I feel badly for them)

Think about the medical bills that eating like that racks up.

I need to quit.

I will check numbers later this morning. I know we tore PA and FL a new one. Those were some beautiful REDS.

I am getting upset.

I think that I will have a Peach and go for a walk.

Emily, that was so beautiful as I know you are.

And those who liked my last blog, thank you very much and your thoughts mean the world to me and I am not just blowing smoke. Trust me on that. From the heart.

I write everything down. It is just the start!

 

By no means am I condemning people who get a food card. My mother gets it and she needs it. I buy my own food and you would be shocked at what I spend.

Some need it but the abuse blows my mind. So much abuse that it turned in to a beast that cannot even be policed. Way too BIG.

Like some of the people who get the food card. I am not pulling any punches. They are killing their self and life is too beautiful to be speeding it up. (Taking a freezer nap)

Not being funny! Once you are in the freezer! NO turning back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We are not that advanced yet! Trust me on that!!!! I am in the know!
