The Golden Rule
In today’s world everything seems so black and white
Cut and dry, “you’re always wrong and I’m always right”
It’s beamed into our minds and bred into our offspring
Relationships are ruined as puppet masters pull our strings
The herald of destruction brings division and desecration
Devastation, hate, and anger continue to consume the nation
And with everything we’re facing unity seems unlikely
If our skin color is different you’re automatically nothing like me?
If our races are different then you’re automatically going to fight me?
It’s strange how color makes us unable to treat each other nicely
I beg to differ and strive to find a different way
How you treat me is how I’ll treat you every. single. day.
Because everyone is unique and life is as precious as diamonds and jewels
My spirit color is gold because I choose to live my life by the golden rule

My Fellow Americans
A little bit about me Before you read this, please note that I’m not a political person. I’m not a person that gets worked up very often either. I’ve always had a live and let live approach to life, something that this country has always allowed me to have. But lately, I find myself absolutely disgusted with this country, it’s leaders and unfortunately it’s people.

How, Too
Many people wonder how, too. You are not alone, and I am an expert. I will teach you how, too! First, you need to remit a small application fee and fill out an application describing the nature of your financial situation and how often payments will be made, as this will have great bearing on how well I teach you how, too.
