This morning, I had the displeasure of watching the national news… an activity I have long boycotted as they continue to sell fear, pessimism and doom! Today was no different as I watched Russian leaders compare the US to the Titanic – after it hit an iceberg.
However, I think they are dead wrong. In his Nobel Prize winning work, Dr. Ilya Prigogine stated that “Many systems of breakdown are actually harbingers of breakthrough” – I couldn’t agree more vehemently.
There have been many times in my own life when I felt that “all was lost”… only to RE-emerge stronger than before. Just as a bone heals STRONGER in the place it was broken, so too do we – as individuals, as families, as a nation – emerge stronger AFTER a “breakdown” than if we had never experienced it!
America… STILL the home of the brave and the land of the free… STILL the land of opportunity! To US!!
