Sometimes We Actually Get Through to Our Family Members
Jim -
I got this letter from my little sister:
"I used to think that you were so off the wall on your beliefs and
how this country was falling apart. I would make little jokes because I had
no idea
what you had seen or done while you were in the military, but you thought
that this world was coming to an end. Well, I am no longer laughing at you
and it
goes to show to not always think that because someone else's ideas or a little
extreme that they are crazy because they might turn out to be right. With
having to research things for class and hearing people talk and seeing what
I see
on the TV, I realize that this country is in bad shape. I won't even be able
to go to Ireland like I planned to do in two years because our dollar will
be worthless. So, one point for Dan, and zero points for me."
She is pretty young, so this is a very significant leaving the ranks of the
sheeple. Sad that "I am right", but now I can help her to become
self-reliant. It is good to get to start an new apprentice! - Dan B.
