The community, state and nation are a sum of all its parts.

If the parts are a majority negative.... the community, state, nation will be negative.

If the parts are a majority positive and work for positive growth......the community, state, nation will be positive.

It is imperative in these times of negativity coming at us from everywhere to stand up acknowledge it and turn it into positives and find ways to grow from it. Otherwise we keep falling into negativity until we die.

It's not hard to spend 15 minutes typing a positive thread or trying to read someone you disagree with's post and try to find compromise or a positive way to debate, instead of attacking, waiting for attack and attacking more.

That is what I am doing I guess... because I keep trying to push people to be positive and that in and of itself is wrong... I'm no better than anyone, I'm not holier than thou it's just I can see ways we can progress forward but I see too much hatred and resistance from partisan people and people who refuse to bend at all. It's frustrating, but then again... maybe someone reads what I say and it gets them to think and they start getting positive and coming up with ideas and they pass that on and so on and so on.... one can hope.

My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?"
