How We Could Row the Boat
As Americans, we have a lot of positive attributes. We have the most generous people in the world, and as a country, we’re willing to help those in need.
I grew up in New York, and have lived in Virginia and Los Angeles, and have seen the most generous people. The media, Hollywood, and those in the political sphere seem determined to set the country in the wrong direction. They could take a leaf out of P.J. Fleck’s book and Row the Boat.
The media is in part responsible for the violence today. Movies filled with violence and hate are shown constantly, and the news doesn’t report on the good, wholesome occurrences in communities, but gravitates toward negativities. Lies and fake news spreads on the internet. People no longer need sources to preach hate from their technological pulpits.
Congress is focused on their own special interest. They don’t work together. If everyone rows the boat in the same direction, we’d move forward and all benefit. We need to focus our energy in the same direction. That we need to go in the same direction. This applies to congress and our leaders.
