In the late 50’s into the 70’s there was a fear of Communism secretly infiltrating the very fabric of our society and culture. The very mention of Communism drew fear in the hearts of many, but now only a generation later, it’s become acceptable and embraced by leaders and followers alike. I look back when attending college that many of the professors were in many ways promoting a social communistic way of thinking. But being young and naive, not paying attention of those promoting a change of thought of American life and its values. I believe for the youth today, it’s much the same.
America’s spirit is crying for reasoning, questioning the world we all live in. Change has become so rapid and values have become so weakened to the point we wonder what is of value and worth? What’s good is now evil, and evil now good. We live in excise and we get what we want and if we can’t get it, there’s always someone to blame. Many go without questioning what follows the piper’s tune that gives a promise of a free un-fettered life, just follow the piper’s tune. Rock and roll vocalist Robert Plant sang about this in the song, “Stairway to Heaven”. He was influenced by the book “Lord of The Rings” by J.R.R. Tolkien.
Many are disappointed with a life with little value. Rape… crime… trafficking, open borders, defund the police, there’s no value of being a citizen, we are now considered world citizens. There’s no uniqueness of being an American. America’s history is to be erased, for if we were to study it, we would find a people with heart and determination with a divine direction to overcome the faults of mankind, with a unified union.
Many come to America to benefit from us, yet their desire is to change the very fabric of American culture. All for a purpose to defeat America. Many Muslim countries have a dislike for America or anything western, yet it seems strange that many migrate to the countries they hate? They come not to assimilate but to destroy and play the piper’s tune of the unending evils of America’s meaning. It was Communist Russian dictator Nikita Khrushchev’s famous statement or prediction, “We will bury you.” This is Communism; realized or not, many seem to embrace. From our early beginnings to our present, the blood of those who fought and are fighting has been for the truest meaning of Life, Liberty & Pursuit of happiness. There is no example to be found that Communism benefits the society they represent. They deceive its citizens into carrying the heavy burden forced upon them, for there’s little choice.
America’s direction didn’t come out of thin air, there’s a power and a mindset that is truly a uniqueness of America as no other. Its basic foundation is of a ‘Divine calling’ that was once followed. Defending truth, justice, respect, helping the needy, family, community, integrity of its people. This is in part, “America’s” calling. America has been as no other, even with our imperfections, just as in you and I. A Divine calling if you will, that brings meaning to a life worth aiming for!
