The Mariupol Steel Plant Ukrainian Soldiers Great Bravery

The bravery of Ukraine’s Soldiers  Can’t Be Forgotten and all who fought with Them!

All of Ukraine’s soldiers and those who fought and are still fighting,  for they are the bravest people imagined.

It is not wrong to fight for what’s yours as you were given no options.

It is not sad to see the soldiers accept a seize fire over what I would say surrender in order for them to have a chance to live and see their families again.  One day, all of Ukraine’s land will return to them and I believe this, but under another regimen.

I am also pleased to see the other Ukraine released to safety prior to this unforgettable battle.

Putin has put his own people’s lives at risk and death for not reason enough to cause this type of coinage.

The world should not forget this war.  Most of what has happened in war of this sort are that they depend on people forgetting or lacking it up as misinformation. Just like in the Jewish Holocaust. (it didn’t happen) Hopefully, there will be documentary after documentary to tell this story.  Why land is more important than a person’s life, I’ll never know as in this situation the protecting of what’s yours is different from the aggressor, Russia-where even their own people’s lives don’t matter.

This war against Ukraine is a Travesty!

I’m sure there will be many memorials to honor all those people who gave their lives for their homeland and to protect their democracy.  Democracy is a bad word for a dictator.  Democracy is the freedom of mind, heart, and soul to think and respect the rights of others while maintaining yours.

One might win the war, but lose the true value of a person’s soul and spirit when atrocities have been committed against them.

History will repeat itself if you don’t remember all that has occurred as this is a full sample of what is happening in Ukraine.

I thought we were a more intelligent society, that could be diplomatic in cases like this, but it seems that talking was not an option. Killing and destroying was one person’s decision not to follow a diplomatic solution.

This is why all nations bordering the land of Russia should absolutely join NATO!

May God warm the hearts of the survivors of this Unnecessary War!

And may God protect the Russian people who are persecuted for their fight against the Ukrainian people for they have no rights, no voice, and no real life to live as they wish.

Freedom should not be taken for Granted! Anymore!

The War is Not Done, Keep up the support for all the people who are displaced and All the countries that took them in. There will be needs all around and somewhere on this site, I’ll find the link to places you can donate.

CNN.com/Impact  has a donation site as well as others.

Now Is The Time To Teach Your Children How Important Democracy Is!

The Unnecessary War

Putin’s War Is a War Again The World
Why?

We all know how important learning about your history is, but never has it been more important to now see, the difference between dictatorship and democracy.

Remember, that the invasion of Russia against Ukraine is not a Russia War, but

Putin’s war. When you are under the rule of a dictator, you have no voice, so, therefore, no say in what happens to you or anyone else.  That’s why Democracy is very important!  We should all appreciate it, because there are laws and rules that protect a person’s humanity. 

We are supposed to live in a civilized society, but this situation is not from a person who is.

The amount of destruction and murder in Ukraine will be remembered for all who see just what one man can do. This is not to say he won’t do the same to you! Maybe not today but tomorrow.
The only negotiation is to tell Putin to Get Out. He will face the world’s court after this is over.
God did not give us this world on earth, to only be destroyed by man. No one really owns the earth.
My heart goes out to the Russian people who are against this destructive situation and Ukraine. The bravery there with the leadership of Zolensky and all of the Ukrainian people is truly amazing. Courageous!
Today, this attack is against one country who don’t deserve this extermination of a people, and tomorrow, as I said before, It could be us.
We are a global world and what one person does will affect all of us as you see in Ukraine.

So go back and read all about the wars of the past and see today, how history is repeating itself.  But today, we have more technology, which can be good and bad at the same time. False information (propaganda) has always been a tool to persuade people in the wrong direction, but when you learn for yourself, and with a moral compass, you will decide for yourself, what is wrong and what is right. 

WE MUST LIVE IN A WORLD OF PEACE, JUSTICE, AND HOPE For All Countries, and for ALL PEOPLE. 

P.S. DON’T FORGET TO VOTE!!! 

VOTING IS YOUR RIGHT AND A PRIVILEGE.   IF YOU DON’T USE IT, YOU LOSE It!   What? Your Rights to Speak, Live, Think and Make Choices in Your Life!

Why McAuliffe Should Be Governor of Virginia

 Voting for Terry McAuliffe in Virginia Will Make America Better!!

Hello and Welcome to Creative Wonders To Living

As a Virginian now living in New Jersey, I have gotten more involved in our politics and enjoy trying to add to a positive change.  There are so many things I’m learning about our democracy and how it works.  What I have been most impressed with is the candidate, Terry McAuliffe.  I saw him on a special Book Review at a Library program- that I will have to go back and find-and was very impressed with his views on many of the problems we are facing in our country.    Yes, he was on a C-Span tv show. Perhaps you can get a rebroadcast on YouTube or Google it.

Here is a link to a  glimpse of who he is.  McAuliffe calls for Virginia to ‘diversify’ teacher base, citing the percentage of White teachers (msn.com)

He just knows how our system work and should work and is not afraid to bring out what needs to change.  Also, he was the Governor of Virginia before. Experience is everything!

So research whoever is the candidate,  and make a wise decision for what you think is good for our country.

One President can’t make good changes or any changes if others don’t want America to be what it should be.  The country is almost a century behind because of politics between the 2 parties.  Maintaining and seeing our country grown should not be a personal matter of the politician, but it should be national with extensions to the global world when making the right decisions and plans for the future.  There must be a plan for our country which includes analysis, and vision to push this country forward.

Terry McAuliffe is all of those things as you read this link I’ve included in this article.

Who knows, he might be our next president; something I would invite immensely.  Thank God we have someone in the administration that is fighting to stabilize this country that has many concerns.

Yes, Please Vote for your candidate. If I could vote in Va, I would vote for Terry McAuliffe!

You have the right to vote for whomever you want to vote for as it is your right. However, no matter who you vote for, check their records and know who they are and what they bring to the table to make our country the best it can be.

Yes, you have the power in your hand with your vote, but what people don’t do afterward is to make them-you candidate- accountable for the job you voted them in for.  Enough already!

The filibuster as we see happening in front of our eyes is going to be a setback for our country, because, not every politician is thinking for a better America.  It’s about the power of their position over another party.  The 2 parties have got to work together.  A negative has got to turn positive sometimes because as we look back, the time of the century will show and tell you what went wrong and how it could have been much better. The intelligence of the American people will not allow this slant in our system anymore.

So the chips are not in for the cars, Who has this power to stop the cars from being sold?  Why are we not producing our own microchips for cars?  This is an example of what needs to change.  We must get back to producing our own products.  That’s real power.  Cresting and Manufacturing your own products.

Check out this link on why I think Terry McAuliffe is Great for America!

McAuliffe calls for Virginia to ‘diversify’ teacher base, citing the percentage of White teachers (msn.com)

Ok,

These are my opinion.  Do you agree? Do you disagree? What do you think? I’m looking forward to hearing from you.  I respect your opinion. I’m a people person and will love to invite you here to my little world!

Talk soon,  Be safe.

Voting IS Your Right In America! No Time To Sleep AT The Wheel !

 

 

 GO TELL IT ON THE MOUNTAIN:  VOTE, VOTE, VOTE

Hello, All,

No matter who you; are, we in America are one country,  but now as I see a clearer picture.   it is a country of 2 and 3 thoughts of what democracy is as a whole.  The whole is broken into many pieces that are not creative or even practical.

So when this country starts living in the truth, nothing will get done and things will deteriorate more and more.  We have many issues that are so problematic, that there might not be a recovery.  So much money wasted on a bunch of nonsense, that it will take many years to get back on track and start moving forward for the country as a whole.

Maybe for the first time, we see how far back we are as a country because the truth from the get-go has not been seen and acted upon.  History is the destroyer of the system as it is in that still, we do not have equal rights and equal opportunities.

Though voting is important, what can one person do to make a change in our country from which many other countries benefit?

No matter who’s in office, we must track the work they do and make them accountable for what is needed in this country.  That means all levels of our system-that include preserving some land for the animals to exist. Taking away their habitat is truly a crime to behold.  To go forward, we must go back. Go back to Nature, Go back to respecting humanity, Go back to correcting the wrongs of the pass. and Go back to communication and understanding other’s cultures and what they have contributed to America and the world and giving them recognition for the work they have done.

And so your vote covers many, many issues that confront us today.  From conception in the womb to life to a good healthy young-old age,  there are needs and nurturing of all groups of people.

So voting is not just about a right to vote, but voting for the best person to get the job done and a person who has a heart and compassion for all people.

This country has got to save itself before it can save anyone else.

We can’t promote the drug industry and lock people up after they have destroyed themselves, leaving the taxpayers with more burdens when we should be promoting better health,  strong focus on everyone getting a great education,  and moving the country in a more sustainable way of life and most of all, protect the earth.  It’s all we got for now.

The gun violence we see today has a lot to do about mental health issues,  the sale of guns availability and selling to those who don’t get registered and have background checks, the deteriorating family structure, lack of follow-up on children with special needs, the lack of jobs, the lack of male and female mentorship, poverty, racism, and the unequal opportunity for African-American and other challenged groups of people,  the fair practice of equal opportunity.

So read about your candidate, search your conscience, and do the right thing! VOTE! and Vote Every election. ( Your primary election can be just as important and the general elections.  The primary election is a factor of those who are the ones who are running your local government.  There’s a lot more to speak about the importance of a primary election.  A lot.  I will speak more about that in the future.

Thank you for visiting my website and I really appreciate you voting and encouraging others to do likewise.  Social media is truly a great tool to spread the news of anything important to you.  You can do something about that state of our American system. Just start talking to people-anywhere, anytime, and anyone.

GO TELL IT ON THE MOUNTAIN!  VOTE, VOTE, VOTE!!

Where Civics and Politics Collide

Civic and Politics

Greetings all!

A lot has happened since I last updated this blog. Weather disasters, mass shootings, out-of-control fires in California, and now the past and some ongoing elections have indeed changed the lives of many and the course of history as we once knew it.
I am hoping all of you are supporting the good efforts of stabilizing our country and I appreciate your efforts.

Now we see why civics is important to know and to exercise your rights in our democracy.
It is a shame that a President is running his campaigns on those that have controversial views of what he thinks democracy is about.

Truly, it is not all about money when people are suffering and are at risk of losing or not affording their health benefits, losing their home through gentrification, and other life-changing
governmental moves that marginalize working and poor people in our country.
There is a lot of work to do more now than ever before.
You can push for Civics to return to schools and to include your children in the election process so that they can learn early that they are a part of the voting process. Also to get them involved in volunteering in the local elections when the opportunity arises.(handing out brochures, flyers, and having political discussions in the family and among their peers.) The children are the future. Civics not being included in all schools curricula is a form of not educating our children on what is the most important process we have called, Democracy. Democracy is where your rights and freedoms are protected. Democracy is what allows you to be a free person to express and live your life in all its fullness.

Each and every one of us can be a part of the political system by voting for who we think are the best people to do the job to support our country to run smoothly, fairly and with integrity for all the people.
Voting is not only your right but your civic duty. Yes, your vote counts!
You can go online and read on the many websites, the Constitution. You can also buy a copy of the constitution for very little money-Between $4.00 or $5.00 dollars.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS!

Paying Attention To What Government Changes That Can Affect You

United We Stand, Divided We Fall

Hello all,

I hope everything is find with you and your family as we approach the holiday season.

I am looking forward to a more active blog as I was having trouble with another site I liked.    There’s a lot to write about on this site because it also focus on  sharing information that you would be interested in and news that is trending today.

 

So much have been happening since this last election.  There are many Government Changes made and with the new Tax Bill, we need to know what those changes are and make it known just how concern you are and to protest  that which could change your life and the life of your children and grandchildren, as well as others who need the supports of health for their well-being.

If you are not satisfied with what is going on, please do something!

Contact your Senators, Representative,   and any elective officials that can be of help to you.

I see drastic changes in the future that could put your lively hood in  great risk.

I suggest that you and your family have an emergency meeting to make plans for the disasters that are to come.

Though the holiday seasons are here, I believe spending should be done   cautiously.  Tomorrow is another day and tomorrow is what we should all look forward to.

Many people are  in need of the basic things of life and I am pleased to see that many people are opting to give to those in need instead of buying gifts for family members.

Many families have already made plans to side-step getting a gift in place to give to a charity in need or to disaster victims.   It is truly a good thing.

Together, we can choose to unite America instead of dividing America.

I am looking forward to hearing your ideas and thoughts about what is happening on Capital Hill and what you are doing about it.

To contact your  state Senators  and other government  officials in your state, go to:

http://www.usa.gov/elected-officials

by  Thelma Harcum

P.S.   I will be writing about the disaster plan  to help you plan for the future.  You can do something now by making those small steps in cutting your spending and stocking up on food and water.

I do believe we are in an emergency situation and it is up to you to find out what really is going on and how  your money should be spend by our government.   We are one no matter what  party you belong to .

How To Combat The War On Racism

BE PROUD OF WHO YOU ARE! Combat Racism for all Humankind!

America the Great Country We thought has come to reckoning that our vision of a true wonderful country has been put on the front page of being untrue, as the election of Donald Trump to presidency has occurred and have set a poisonous atmosphere for unity.  We are truly in the 911 of September 2001 and a 911 of an emergency  we use in our ordinary life-saving call of urgency.

What I’m seeing is a situation where a person do not qualify to be our president considering the evidence that is presented. If a person who is running for president say he can go out and kill someone and get away with it, then do this qualify him as our president? Well, not my President!

I don’t see how the country can go forward when there are so many adverse actions against the American people and their rights in this present environment of government rulings.

To sum it up, we are not going nowhere because, confusion, disruption, and incompetency is part of the force of really bringing America to a standstill.
“Divide and Conguer” look like the high tide of saying that still plays out today to a never-ending cycle.
The other: Give them a bone to chew on and then we’ll do that. (It makes me sick to even write those words, because I know that is what’s really happening.)

The American People are looking for leadership, truth, direction and much more.
However, when the American people are not a part of the plan, where and who in this world do they look to.

Racism in this day and time have no place in a humane society.
None of us are responsible for who we are as of being born in it. So, do it make sense that you are guilty at birth for having being born whoever you are? No and No, again.

So to deny the rights of one group of people also is a deny to you, your rights.
These are thoughts to ponder.

What we need is a campaign to end racism as it is presented to us even today and to move the country forward
for a better future for not only us, but for our children and grandchildren and for the future of mankind.

What can you do to end racism?
To live in the truth is one. We all have likes and dislikes. Lets not let color of one’s skin or ethnicity be on the list of dislikes; if you judge, judge by one’s character.

Raise your voice, Raise your voice-while you can.
Protect your rights, know your constitution, and counteract all of this negativity with action.

Bringing Civics and/or Maintaining Civics Curriculum In Schools

the importance of Civics In The School Curriculum

Hello Readers,

Politics and Government Activity are the focus today of many Americans and foreigners.  Never in American History have the knowledge of how government work could be of momentous importance. Let’s explore Civics.  Civic is all about your rights and how the government works. It is Democracy.

I remember having Civics in school when I was in junior high and found it interesting.

Today, many of having forgotten how the government works and how democracy works for all of us.

Why I’m writing this article is because of the recent presidential election, from which I have written some articles, but, as I thought more and more about our democracy being compromised.  We all should review the constitution, just as you would your will, and find out what is in it and how it relates to your rights and your life in general.

If your children don’t have civics in school,  demand that they include it. Just like the 3 R’s, civics can be just as important!  in order to know what your vote means in the political system, it is important to know just what each section of our government does.

So education, education, education on the ways of the government!

It is never too late to learn something every day.

I will be leaving links http://constitutionus.com/  for you to explore more and to read and revisit the constitution and all related documents. terminology listing will also be listed in the very near future just so as to understand more what the words mean.

Thank you for visiting this site and I am looking forward to hearing your comments.

Get to learn more about your constitution and share your knowledge with others.  Have Civic discussions with your family and children especially.

If reading online is too much, nothing should stop short of purchasing a copy of the Constitution.

Long Live Civics!  Again, here is the link. http://constitutionus.com/T

DONALD TRUMPS PRESIDENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

ZIPNON / Pixabay

HELLO READERS,

Surely you know of  the 2016 presidential  election  outcome.  The campaign TDonald Trump  lead was one of the ugliest and mean-spirited that Americans have ever witnessed.

Most of the people I have spoken to on the campaign trail really didn’t get it. Voting is very important!  However, it look like electoral college really made the choice of who was going to be president.  If the electoral college stay in place,  then really, what other choices do we have in America to make sure our voices count.  We don’t need the majority vote.

Here is a link from the Mother Jones website on their collection of conflicts of interest of  President Elect, Donald Trump.
Mother Jones/ Politics

Let your voices be heard, protect  your rights and the rights of the American people.  Democracy must be protected for all American and all people should be treated with respect and dignity.

Tampered 2016 Election, Out With The Electoral College Vote!NOW!

wynpnt / Pixabay

THE MAJORITY VOTE SHOULD BE THE VOTE FOR THE HILARY CLINTON PRESIDENCY!

TAMPERING OF THE ELECTION SHOULD BRING RISE TO MAJOR CONCERNS FOR  DEMOCRACY!

We all know that this Presidential campaign was a nasty one! Mostly from Donald Trump.
Being there was so much interference that affected the election-from the FBI to the Hilary Clinton emails, not including name-calling to another Presidential Candidate, and manipulations and traps, we should go for the Majority vote from which Hilary Clinton won! That means to disqualify the Electoral College vote and Immediately! Many other people I know also agree with how I feel.
With all the problems we have as a country, we don’t need to be destabilized to the point of no return. Our country is too fragile after coming into  an almost depression when President Obama took office.
America stands for a better presentation than what we got this year. It should not be a set condition from which we as Americans should endure ever again.
Wanting the best for America and for all people in the world, has nothing to do with Political Parties, Religion, Race, and social-economic condition.
I am a concern and wish for the best for America. We must all work together to keep our country together and to demand the respect of our politicians.
If you care to comment, please do so. You don’t need to be a sitting duck in the mist of
a firing squad.
If Donald Trump can’t keep his house in order, how will he keep our house in order. (The White House)  It’s the people majority vote that should count at this point!
Now, Who have the power to do that? Now!
