I Had enough after only 69 years, Have You?

This is not what I wanted to write about this week, I just couldn’t think about anything else but this.

We know putting the news on first thing in the morning is a big mistake. You can’t help it. You have this need to know. Need to know what’s going on in the world since you went to sleep.

It’s a terrible way to start your day.

I had enough of what for 69 years?

War

Listening to the news this morning, the realization came over me. Our country has been involved in wars as long as I’ve been alive.

As a Matter of fact, the world has been at war forever.

When we look at history, we see the world has and is at constant war.

Crazy. I can’t think of another word for it. Is it not the definition of insanity?

Insanity | inˈsanədē | noun the state of being seriously mentally ill; madness:

How much longer will it take humanity to realize it, wars are just not effective in preventing wars. It’s doing the same thing over and over, expecting different results.

Think this selected governing class will ever admits they have it all wrong?
