My passion is to help you think and ponder. This is something I have done forever. Most comes from reading as there is lots of wisdom out there. Unfortunately, media provides most of our knowledge and is rubbish and is getting worse. One has to search for the wisdom. As in all generations there are really wise people who might get heard.
My consistent theme is that most of us are followers. All of us are different but what’s common is that we all are followers. Let me try to establish an operational definition of that word. It would include all of us who are not involved in who runs our government, the leaders, and the politics that dictate that effort. Think of who all the leaders are wherever and realize all we do is mind our business and either benefit or get hurt by what they establish usually under the guise of helping us.
I have come to believe through my research and questioning that for the time we are on this planet we are just victims. Had we been born in Russia, China, Argentina, France, and on and on we are just victims of that culture. Some are quite lucky and some aren’t. Really no different than being caught up in natural disasters like earthquakes and hurricanes.
So I am going to think and ponder as a follower. Luckier than many and wonder why?
I didn’t choose what country I was born in, or who my parents were, or what schools I went to and what I was taught. Now then then the results for Followers is based upon their circumstance, where they have no control. The lower class is hurt the most.

Larry- Helping people think and ponder is definitely a worthy cause. I appreciate the prompt.
You started your book! I like what you have presented so far. Look forward to reading more.
