How anyone anywhere can make a difference. The world needs change now more than ever. Problems surround us: division, anger, violence, corruption, poverty, homelessness and family breakdown. Too often, we feel powerless to do anything about them. We wonder, why doesn’t somebody do something? The good news is somebody can. You can be the one who changes the world around you.

No one likes changes. When someone comes around to make changes, we fight it every step of the way. When Barack Obama came about in 2008 promoting changes, we do not like it and even said, “Keep the change.” Then 8 years later, Donald Trump came about also promoting change and draining the swamp. Those in Washington fought him as well.

This book by John C. Maxwell, “Change Your World” is written for you if you want to change your world. If you desire better schools,better neighborhoods,more positive workplaces,more connected families or communities where people get along and work together for everyone’s good, we can learn to help build them by becoming the change you want to see.

Changing the world happens one life at a time. We are committed to helping people like you become a light of hope within your community.

Wouldn’t it be wonderful to have better schools, better neighborhoods, more positive workplaces, more connected family, communities where people get along and work together for everyone’s good? Wouldn’t the world be better if people were more respectful, unified, and positive?

If change is possible, why aren’t we doing more to change our world? We want want change,but we hope that someone somewhere will do something to bring it about. As President John F. Kennedy said, “Ask not what the government can do for you, ask what you can do for the government.”

People can change if they really want to;but they got to want to.

Dare to dream high;but also be doer.

The changes you make within yourself will give you the confidence,credibility and hope to help others.

The people who change the world are those who want to and don’t wait to do so.

It doesn’t matter how old you are. It doesn’t matter what you have or haven’t done yet. It’s never too late to do something to change the world.

We can make excuses or we can make changes,but we cannot do both. Our solution is making a commitment to change.

As Steve Jobs said, “The people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are usually the ones who do.” You cannot fight city hall by yourself;but you can make a difference enough to bring about changes in time. People may think that you are crazy but in the end they’ll come around.

Change doesn’t happen on its own. Change begins with caring enough to make a difference.Change stands up for a cause. Change spreads from me to we; with people who want to make a difference.

Let us remember: one book,one pen, one child,and one teacher can change the world.

When you become a catalyst for change, one of the most significant things you can do is invite others to join you in the cause. You must be willing to share your passion either with what Obama or Trump done through speaking or what I’m doing through my blog.

You will never be what you ought to be until you are doing what you ought to be doing.

When you are willing to take small steps and become a catalyst, there’s really no telling what it can lead to or how great an impact you might make. One step for man-one giant step for mankind.

We accomplish more when we work together to make changes. When you partner with the right people-who are on the same page,have the same values, who are willing to work for the same cause and who will fight for one another, it makes all the difference in the world.

If you want to change your world in a big way, then you know what you need to do: TEAM UP!

If you want to go fast,go alone. If you want to go far, go together.

Do you believe that you make a difference- a change?

If we want to change our world, we can’t just climb the ladder of success. We need to climb the ladder of good values.

What are you will to do for change? What is keeping you from making a difference in the world around you? For changes to happen, it must start with you. You got to want to change, No one can make you change. You got to want help to better yourself;otherwise you will not actually get off the roller coaster of life. It’s all up to you! What are you willing to do for change?

Liz Cheney is a cry baby Rhino Republicans washed out former Congress woman from Wyoming. She is the daughter of Dick Cheney, a former Vice President under George W. Bush. She was behind the Jan.6th investigation of the riot at the Capital. Out of her pure hatred of Donald Trump, she withheld evidence in hoping to ruin Trump’s good name and run him through the ringer. She is no better than today’s Democrats we have in Washington right now. All she cares about is the power not the American people. Because she went after Trump, she lost her reelection to the House of Representative from Wyoming. She cried about it 2 years ago and she’s still crying about it to this day. She’s right up there with Hillary Clinton as someone the American people cannot trust.

Liz Cheney represented Wyoming from 2017-2023. She’s 58 years old and married to Philip Perry. Her parents are Dick and Lynne Cheney. She has a sister named Mary. She was all for impeaching Donald Trump. She will not go away much like Hillary Clinton.

Out of her hatred for Donald Trump, she and her father, Dick Cheney is endorsing Kamala Harris for President. She’s one Republican they can do without. She’s a crybaby like Mitt Romney who lost his bid for Presidency in 2012 against Obama. He’s still crying about it and very much jealous that Trump did what he couldn’t.

As a Republican ever since 1984 because of Ronald Reagan, I could not vote for John McCain and Mitt Romney. Much like I couldn’t vote for George W. Bush in the 2000 election. I wrote in Elizabeth Dole’s name rather than vote for George W. Bush for President.

Liz Cheney’s father is Vice President Dick Cheney. He was the puppet master behind George W. Bush. He was known as the most powerful Vice President and now the oldest Vice President. He served as White House Chief of Staff under Gerald Ford and Secretary of Defense under the first George Bush.

Not only was Dick Cheney against Trump, he was also against Ronald Reagan.

Dick Cheney was involved in a pheasant hunting shooting in which his lawyer friend was killed. The big question is, why wasn’t Dick Cheney charged with the murder? They labeled the shooting as an accident much like the lawyer involved with Whitewater scandal under Bill Clinton, who they say committed suicide. If you asked me, he was murdered much like the lawyer’s friend of Dick Cheney. Dick Cheney should have served time for murder for that killing.

Both Dick and Liz Cheney should be in prison instead of being out and about as free individuals. Liz is no better than her father. They are just as crooked as Joe and Hunter Biden.

Like I said earlier, I didn’t vote for George W. Bush in 2000 for President, I wrote in Elizabeth Dole’s name. I couldn’t bring myself to support and endorsed George W. Bush in the 2000 election. To me, he’s the third worst President in my lifetime right now. He’s right behind Jimmy Carter, who was the worst until Joe Biden took that title away easily.

For those who probably don’t know, after terrorist attacked the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001, George W. Bush knew about it before it actually happened, and so did Dick Cheney as well. Those on the left went after Trump for treason but never went after Bush. If anything George W. Bush and Dick Cheney are more guilty than Donald Trump. The whole time that George W. Bush was president, I said he should have been impeach. I couldn’t even pray for him.

Sure, I may had voted supported the George Bush for president; only because I was a young Republicans at that time, but I couldn’t bring myself to vote for George W. Bush and even Jeb Bush in 2016.

In 2004, I almost didn’t vote at all, because I didn’t want both Bush and John Kerry as President. So I can understand why some may not vote in this year election and why some may not voted in the 2020 election. In the 2020 election, there were people who didn’t want Trump or Biden; much like there are those who do not want Trump or Harris in this year election.

I will give George W.Bush 2 things to be credit for. The first,even though,he knew all along about the terrorist attack of the World Trade Center, I’m glad that he was President instead of Al (I discovered the Internet) Gore. I believed that Al Gore would had done nothing.

Another credit I give George W.Bush is that he’s not endorsing either Trump or Harris for President. He’s remaining neutral.

I have to admit that Nikki Haley is just as bad as Liz Cheney,except for being a crybaby. Nikki Haley made a comment that both Trump and Vance shouldn’t make a comment about Kamala Harris’s intelligence. There is one comment I’m going to make that may pissed Nikki Haley off; but I’ll say it once again. Kamala Harris is a DEI appointee. She never ran in the primary in the last 2 elections. In the 2020 election, she dropped out before the Iowa caucuses. Then in this year election, she was appointed because Joe Biden was forced to dropped out back in July, after a failed debate against Trump. The Democrats pulled a coup against Biden out of fear of losing the election.

So when I heard that Dick and Liz Cheney endorsed Kamala Harris, I say good riddance to both of them. The Republicans can do well without them, much like the same goes with Mitt Romney as well. We have a few prominent former Democrats on the Trump’s train,like Bobby Kennedy Jr., Tulsie Gabbert, and Elon Musk to name a few. They are the smart Democrats compared to the Rhino Republicans who refused to get on board the Trump’s train.

I would love to see both Liz Cheney and her father, Dick Cheney to be lock up for treason; but it’s good to know that they are now done in Washington, along with Mitt Romney as well.

How many have issue in trusting others? How many lack trust with our government?

If you are anything like me you l have a mistrust of people because of what I went through in life. First,being abandoned my real father when I was 2 years, when my mother broke up with him after catching him with another woman. Luckily, after my mother married my step-dad when I was going on 6, he was more of a dad to me than my real father.

When I was molested by my older step-brother when I was around 8 years old, also took a toll on my lack of trust. I mean I trusted and loved him;and he hurt me. I may have forgiven him, but it doesn’t mean that I trust him.

The government may wonder why more and more people doesn’t trust them. The government had let down the American people way too much.

Now it seems that the American people also have a mistrust of our mainstream news media as well. They have lied to us so much lately.

This blog will be off the book, “The Trusted Edge.”

Trust, not money, is the currency of business and life.

As Doug Miller, president of GlobeScan said, “Trust is the single largest driver of public attitude on a whole range of issues from globalization to terrorism to the role of governments.”

Ever since 2009 at the World Economic Forum in China, world leaders got it right when they declared that our biggest crisis is a lack of trust and confidence.

We can reach across borders, but we don’t know how to be trusted by the people we find on the other side.

Trust is a requirement for strong friendships, families, and firms.

Everything of value is built on trust, from financial systems to relationships. To be trusted is a greater compliment than being love.

Without trust, influence is destroyed, leaders lose teams, people lose sales, organizations lose productivity, relationships,reputation, talented people, customer loyalty, creativity, morale, revenue, and results.

You are trusted to the degree that people believe in your ability,your consistency, your integrity, and your commitment to deliver. Do people believe in you?

It used to be a handshake was as good a contract that was binding. Times have changed though.

Trust requires time, effort, diligence, and character. It took an average of 7 months for employees to build their trust in a leader but less than half that time for them to lose it.

Deep trust is generally established over time. It can withstand adversity and is often born of personal experience.

Trust multiplies influence and impact. A lack of trust is your biggest expense.

This could be the government and mainstream news media biggest dilemma with why the American people don’t trust them anymore.

Without trust, there’s no way that any organization can sustain innovation.Because without trust,no one is willing to take the risks that innovation requires. This being proven to be a proven fact more and more lately in life.

Years ago kids were taught to say please and thank you, hoping that someday those words will come out of a thankful and kind heart.

Trust is always a risk!!! Only 38% of informed public in the U.S. trust businesses to do what is right. Only 49% of informed public globally trust businesses.

When trust was squandered, the American people were not well served. This is why we do not trust our government in Washington. A reason why they would vote for an outsider,someone who isn’t a career politicians.

Being bombarded with negative news coverage,whether accurate or exaggerated, often creates more negativity because it leaves the possibility in our minds. This is why the ratings for the news media is at an all-time low right now. You can only fool people so much before enough is enough.

People have become more skeptical than ever. Recent studies show that 80% of Americans do not trust corporate leaders. Only 50% of young Americans-aged 15 to 25-trust the government to do the right thing.

This is a major reason why most of the American people do not trust our government and career politicians in Washington. When someone who isn’t a career politician make a runs for office, they are more apt to get the vote and support from the American people instead. This is also why those in Washington are so against them because they are so corrupted with power to actually see the truth for what it is.

Some people may wonder why some doesn’t trust our government, the news media and even science after the Pandemic.

Who do you trust? Do you have a lack of trust in general or of the government and news media? Do you trust science and the medical professions?

This a big reason why things are the way it is in this country. There is a big lack of trust in America and the world today. It’s a dog eat dog world out there. It’s every man or woman for themselves.

In this part, I will be telling what the big Pharma and medical profession is not telling. This blog will be off the book, “Herbal Antibiotics.” I will even talked about what Dr. Nazi Fauci didn’t tell us about the origin of Covid.

There are 45 most powerful herbal Antibiotics for overcoming any ailment. If the big Pharma and medical profession knew all that, they would shut it down right away. The reason for it: is because they are only after the money rather than the actual healing process. They would rather keep us sick and at their beck and call. The more we are dependent on them, the more money they make.

Are you sick and tired of having to depend on your doctors for every single drugs for whatever may ail you? Herbal Antibiotics uncover a whole new world of 100% natural remedies used for hundreds upon hundreds of years to cure and treat ailments. They’re all completely vegan-friendly.

Herbal antibiotics-among other medicines-have been used by healers for centuries to ward off a wide range of ailments.

Most of us know bacteria as “germs”, invading our bodies and making us ill, but actually they co-exist with us a lot of the time helping to maintain our atmosphere.

To help with sinuses, consume hot ginger tea and avoid dairy. Taking a steam bath or using the sauna is also very good. I guess,one of the reason my mother would grease our neck with Vicks vapor rub and wrapped my dad’s sock around our neck when we were sick with sinuses and sore throat.

The superbugs’ resistance to drugs may be based on acquiring resistance genes among other bacteria or mutation. Our bodies have become so immune to using them that they no longer have the desired impact on our immune systems. This is one of the reasons, they keep looking for something else to cure whatever may ail us.

The antibiotics that your doctor prescribes are synthetic. What is most concerning is that there are some bacteria that have developed a resistance to almost all these prescribed antibiotics.

The pros of Natural Remedies are as follow: lower risk for side effects, better results for chronic conditions, manageable prices, and easier accessibility.

The cons of Natural Remedies are as follow: not appropriate in treating certain conditions, no specific dosage guidelines, wild herbs come with a poison risk, potential interaction with current medications, and the most important one is-NO GOVERNMENT REGULATION OR OVERSIGHT.

There are many ways that your body can fight infections and strengthen your immune system naturally. It’s all about changing your lifestyle like: quit smoking, maintain a balanced diet, work out regularly, stay at a healthy weight, monitor your blood pressure, only drink alcohol in moderation, get enough sleep, take the steps, for example, washing hands and thoroughly cooking meat to prevent infection.

When I turned 50, 9 years ago, I made a decision to change my diet to eat healthier and used more herbs and organic. I have lost around 50 pounds in the process. I still not down where I want to be but I’m starting to feel healthier. I do not have heart trouble knock on wood. But I believe that the Covid vaccine did a number on my immune system, especially my sinuses and sometimes I would have dizzy spells. I remembered after getting the first vaccine shot because of my job;which I wouldn’t have gotten in the first place. I became overheated and dizzy at work at Sanford Hospital. Few days later, I went in for a follow-up to see what happened. I learned that my heart and blood pressure was good. The doctor couldn’t find any reason for what happened,and they wouldn’t admit that the vaccine had anything to do with it.

There are cures out there for such diseases as diabetes out there but those in the medical profession don’t want you the public to know. They would have a person killed and the evidence destroyed just to keep us sick and dependent on them. It’s all about the money!

Ever since the Pandemic and Covid there have been 42 variant that came out of Covid 19, and still counting.

You may wonder why there are so much illnesses out there. Think about it: all the pesticides in our foods we grow. All the chemicals they used on our crops, are making us sicker and sicker. If you can find good organic fruits and vegetables without the used of pesticides you’ll be better off and healthier. People lived longer and not have all that poisons being fed us before the creation of pesticides. No wonder why are healthcare is so damn expensive.

Bobby Kennedy Jr.has a book out there exposing the truth about Dr.Nazi Fauci and yet the Leftist media called Kennedy a Conspiracy Theorist. They would rather believe Dr. Fauci over the truth told by Kennedy. Anyone who choose to believe Kennedy is also labeled a nut job as well.

We all know that the vaccine was made in the Wuhan lab funded by Dr. Nazi Fauci. The American government,and especially the Democrats knows the truth but don’t want the American people to know the truth. Senator Rand Paul joined forces with Kennedy to get to the bottom of CoVid with no avail and we ‘ll never really find out the whole truth.

If it wasn’t for my job at Sanford Hospital, I wouldn’t got the vaccine. The vaccine is poison. Years later, it will be revealed that more illness will arise out of the vaccine; but the medical profession will deny it as usual.

Then they wonder why the American people do not trust our government. They sit on a cover-up in favor of the big Pharma and medical professions.

They wonder why I do not trust science. After doing all my research to try to sustain a healthier lifestyle. During the Pandemic, I have been taking elderberry syrup and ginger roots to strengthen my immune system.

Those pushing the vaccine or like what I like to call it,poison, tell us get the vaccine or just die. To them we are all conspiracy theorist. It was the same way during the Salem Witchcraft trial in the 1600’s of America. They were accused of being witches because they refused to believe and trust herbal remedies over the medical professions.

You can believe what you want but I’m not a conspiracy theorist. I cannot trust science because it was science who created the Covid virus. God created herbs long before man created the poisons they call vaccine. I would love to hear from you and know what you actually think.

Have you noticed how the government and news media don’t tell us certain things we have the right to know? They only tell you what they want to tell us.If you post the truths on something they don’t agree with, they fact check you on Facebook. They don’t want you know more than what they are willing to inform us.

This will be part 1 in this 2-part series, leading up to the book, “Herbal Antibiotics: What the big pharma doesn’t want you to know.”

Back when I was in high school,I wasn’t taught about the Vietnam War; instead I was taught what was going on in the United States during that time. I don’t know if it was because it was too soon to teach us about the Vietnam War or the teachers were very Liberals back then like they are today.

Now it seems that they don’t teach about the Holocaust in high school like they did when I was in high school. I remembered in the 10th grade, we would spend the whole day watching the Holocaust movie one time. It’s part of our history, and those on the Left refused to teach that. They rather indoctrinate or kids instead.

The U.S. government UFO cover up is real-but it’s not what you think. Which brings the question: are we alone?

This is just one of many cover-up by our corrupted government. Before I get into other cover-up, I will mention something else.

There’s a apartment rental, Silver Leaf in Fargo,North Dakota. When they pulled dirty to me back in 2021 by kicking me out of the apartment building I was living in since 1992, they wouldn’t give a reason for it. When asked why, they responded, “we don’t have to tell you.” Then they go and charge you a big amount of money and you don’t know what you’re paying for.

Let take a look of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy and his brother, Robert Kennedy. We’ll never know the truth to what really happened. There’s bunch a theory but no truth. The government and such agency as the FBI and CIA did all they can to cover up the truth from the American people.

After a 10-month investigation, the Warren Commission concluded that there was no conspiracy theory to the assassination plot. To this day, there is still a widespread debate over at what actually went down.

Just one of the reasons not to trust our government. Some say that because both John F.Kennedy and Robert Kennedy was seeking to expose the truth,they were assassinated for it. It goes to show that when the truth is being expose,they will stop at anything to prevent that from happening.

Let us look at the White Water scandal. You cannot tell me that the lawyer committed suicide. He knew too much on Bill and Hillary Clinton to expose them; so they had him killed. Just like Jeffery Epstein, he was killed in his jail cell and made to look like a suicide.

When President Trump found out about Hunter Biden’s missing briefcase, the mainstream news media and Facebook would fact check you and even cancelled you with misinformation. They did all that during the election; so the American people will not know the truth about Joe Biden just so they can get him elected.

After the 2020 election, a person cannot prove that the Democrats had cheated in that election,but you cannot tell me that Joe Biden could had legally won. It’s all too fishy! Just like the Pandemic was a set up to somehow rig the 2020 election.

I will talk more about the Pandemic in part 2,as I also will also go into details off the book I mentioned earlier in this blog. These are just some what the government refuse to tell the American people.

Much like the news media, they only report what they want to report. They don’t tell the whole story; or as Paul Harvey would say, “the rest of the story.” Today journalist doesn’t do their actual job of reporting the news. They make up stories to make money instead. I’ve studied journalism and I know a true journalist must ask the 5 “w”‘s and “how.” They are to do their research before actually reporting the news. They’re not to be bias either.

One thing, you’ll find out about me, I will do my research before I actually expose the truth in my blog. It’s not just my opinions. I also throw in some facts as well. If you don’t like it, that’s your problem. I will continue exposing the truth like the Drudge Report.

Back in September 19, 1985, John Denver, Dee Snyder, and Frank Zappa found themselves collaborating with each others; when Tipper Gore had a proposal that would place some sort of parental advisory on their songs.

John Denver faced the first censorship when Tipper Gore went out to censor his song, Rocky Mountain High. The reason for them banning the song, “Rocky Mountain High”, was because they felt it pushed drugs used.

At that time, Tipper Gore was more famous than her husband, Senator Al (I discovered the internet) Gore.

Also back then, the Democrats was pro-family and anti-drugs. Whereas now, the Democrats is more in favor of drug use, such as marijuana.

Who hasn’t seen the Rocky Mountain up close? They are very beautiful and breathtaking. A person can just get high on the beauty of the mountain.

I knew a pastor who would love to go up into the mountain to get closer with Jesus. It gave him a spiritual high.

Who haven’t had such a spiritual high like that? A high a person get without the use of drugs.

I have to admit,even though I was in a car accident coming down from Mount Rainier, the beauty of the mountain was breathtaking. I can see how John Denver felt when he wrote the song, “Rocky Mountain High.” It was a natural high a person get when in touch with nature.

When I took a train out West to Washington, and we went through Glacier National Park, I fell in love with it. It was breathtaking! I would love to have my sister to also see Glacier National Park as well. I believe that she would fall in love with it as much as I did. It was a natural high I got from seeing the view. That’s one of the things on my bucket list when I retire, is to take a train to Glacier National Park and even have my sister come along to see it as well. I could just retire there in a cabin, and live like Grizzly Adams.

The only problem is that I would prefer that the Progressive Left would stay the hell out of there; so that they do not ruin the beauty. Whenever people moved from the cities to the small town or countryside, they have to bring a piece of the city with them. That’s just destroyed the tranquility you find in the countryside and small town.

Have you ever felt a spiritual high?

I remembered one year after going to a revival service in a Nazarene church during the week. I was on a natural high after I left; but then I went to a Lutheran church the following Sunday,and it felt like I fell from the mountain. I don’t know how else to explain that feeling; but while listening to the song, “Rocky Mountain High”, that is the best way for me to explain it.

I don’t need drugs to get me high on life. Just give me the natural high you get from either being in the mountains, by a lake, in a small town; the countryside. When a person is sick, and they would go outside breathing air that ain’t breathed before, it’s natural high that will do more wonders for you than what any doctors can prescribe for you and your ailments.

Every summer, I tried to get out to Lake Geneva near Alexandria, Minnesota for camp. I find that going there for District Assembly for my church is less stressful than when they had it in Jamestown. Everything was there, your room and board. You can just relax your mind and your spirit from the cares of the world around you. You don’t have to think at all about what may be stressing you out. Lake Geneva is very beautiful lake. It takes your breath away. It’s not overcrowded like Detroit Lakes. Lakes that are popular hangout for people from the cities, get easily ruined. They just take away the tranquility and peace of mind.

No wonder Jesus told his disciples to take off without him; so he can just get the alone time he needed to relax his mind and spirit.

Another thing I loved doing in the summer is when my sister and I would go to Park Rapids, just to get the hell out of town. You get a natural spiritual high you cannot get from being in the city, even Fargo,North Dakota. During the Pandemic, we went to Park Rapids to get away from all the craziness in Fargo. One of my cousin chewed us out because of it.

After reading all 4 part in this series, I hope that you can get my point I was getting at. There’s nothing like living in a small town or the country. There’s nothing like being in the mountains or by a lake to get high on life. It’s way better than any drugs either illegal or prescribe by these so-called doctors out there. When the world seems to have gone crazy in these major cities; whenever you can get the hell out of town by either going to a small town, countryside,the lake or the mountain, just do it. Now you know why I prefer a cabin in the woods. I can understand the spiritual high John Denver got from the Colorado Rocky. I can understand why my dad would say, “I didn’t missed anything in Fargo.”

Just give me a home where the buffalo roam and I will die a happy man!

In this series, I talked about first life in the country and small town in the first 2 parts.This week, I will talk about life in the city.In the small town, everybody knows your name and your business. People knows their neighbors.They have respect for each others. As a rule, you can trust your neighbors; even though some may be further apart than in the city.

The downside of living in a small town is a person can become famous in a small town.Everyone knows your business. The gossip mills is very high in a small town.

When we first moved to Rollag, Minnesota,south of Hawley, my mother didn’t much care that there were people sitting outside Rollag store watching you like a hawk.

The plus side, you can trust your neighbors to be there for you; compared to living in the city. Neighbors are helping each others. For example: when a farmer is too sick to bring in the crops,the other neighbors will be there to help you bring in the crops.

In this blog, I will be mentioning information from the book, “San Fransicko: Why the Progressives ruin Cities.”This book may talk about San Francisco; but I will be talking more about other major cities, including Fargo,North Dakota as well.But first,a little update about San Francisco.

During the 1800’s gold rush, the pioneers went West in search of gold. California became a hot destination.

Then during the 60’s, during the era of peace,love and the hippies lifestyle. The hippies of the 60’s were largely a white,middle-class group of teenagers and twentysomethings who belong to what demographers call the baby-boom generation. They felt alienated from middle-class society, which they saw as dominated by materialism and repression.

You could say that some of these people grew up to be the Liberals today, in favor of Socialism. San Francisco been known for the home where the hippies went to, living in a commune.

Then in the 70’s in San Francisco, it became a hot spot for the gay lifestyle. It was all about free love no matter the circumstances. They believed a person can sleep with anyone without consequences.

When I was a child, Fargo was more like a small town feeling. No one imagine that Fargo would be like Minneapolis; much like Minneapolis to be like Chicago. Fargo has grown rapidly the last few years, since the opening of the oil fields and when NDSU went to 1st division. Fargo had gotten their names out there and more and more riff-raffs moved to Fargo, thinking there was a better opportunity here.

The last few years, because of Doug Burgum, there have been a rejuvenation of downtown Fargo. Don’t get me wrong, it’s nice seeing old building being restored; but when it comes to living in apartments in these buildings, the price is way out of reach for the average Joe. Most of the people cannot afford to live in Fargo. There’s more homeless now in Fargo than it was when I was a child.

Even though, North Dakota is known as a RED state, but the city Fargo has been turning blue in recent years. It could be because it’s college town, and colleges are more Liberals now days. For example: even though, North Dakota voted Republicans in 2008 and 2012; in the city of Fargo, the people voted for Obama.

Progressives claimed they knew how to solve homelessness, inequality, and crime. but in the cities they control, progressives made those problems worse.

The Democrats solution to the problems is to throw money at it; while the Republicans has no real solutions.

Homelessness and crimes are up at an all-time high in bigger cities. Even the illegal immigrants are flocking to the cities as well.

To get an apartment, there are many hoops a person have to jump through. There is a lot of red tapes to cut through. If a person makes too much money; but yet still struggle to make ends meet, you will not qualified for assistant.

I’m not saying that I have the solutions to the dilemma, but there is a major crisis in America to this day. Something must be done to the homeless population. Something must be done to cut the red tape as well.

If I cannot have a cabin in the woods, you can find me waiting in your welfare line.

I’m tired of this dirty old city. Entirely too much work and never enough play. I’m tired of these dirty old sidewalks. Think I’ll walk off my steady job today. Turn me loose, set me free somewhere in the middle of Montana. Give me all that I’ve got coming to me. Big City, turn me loose and set me free.

I’ve been working everyday since I was 13 and haven’t got a thing to show for anything I’ve done. There are folks who never work and they’ve got plenty.

I just want a cabin in the woods where I can live at one with nature and away from all the craziness of the big city. To clean up the city is more than just restoring older buildings; it’s also about helping the people in needs. It’s about helping the poor working class as well as the homeless population.

It seems that the 1% sees the homeless as being a disease; rather than what it actually is.

When this song by Jason Aldean came out, it was criticized by those on the Left. They attacked Jason Aldean for that song. They tried to cancel him. But he got the last laugh though. That song went fast up the billboard charts. Even CMT tried to stop the airplay of that song; but it drew lots of requests.

Whoopi Goldberg from the View said, “Just like you to talk about people taking care of each other in small towns.”

Joy Behar called the song deplorable and annoying.

They want you to think that small towns cannot make it without the big city. When in reality, it’s the big city that cannot make it without the small town.

Sucker punch somebody on a sidewalk. Carjack an old lady at a red light. Pull a gun on the owner of a liquor store. Ya think it’s cool, well, act a fool if ya like. Cuss out a cop, spit in his face.Stomp on the flag and light it up. Yeah,ya think you’re tough. Well try that in a small town. See how far ya make it down the road. In a small town people take care of themselves. I recommend that you don’t mess with people from a small town. You will face small town justice like never before.

I loved that song because it’s the truth. People in small town knows how to take care of their people. They respect their neighbors, the polices and the American flags.

Those on the Left hated that song because they hated the the videos in which it went after organization as Black Lives Matter burning down the city with all the riots.

As Merle Haggard sang in Okie from Muskogee, “I’m proud to be an Okie from Muskogee. A place where squares can have a ball. We still wave Old Glory at the courthouse.

This is the same with living in a small town. We have respect for one another.We accept one another despite of their opinions and who you may vote for. People in small town knows how to treat people right. Life in a small town is the most beautiful and peaceful place to live in.

As Hank Williams Jr. sang in Country Boys can survive, those who lives in a small town can take care of themselves. It’s an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth in a small town.

I’m from a small town. I graduated from Hawley, Minnesota, where I lived on a farm in Rollag, Minnesota. I’m a small town boy.

When we first moved to the farm,I didn’t care for it at first because it felt so isolated. When I looked back, I have to admit that growing up on the farm saved my life. If we continued living in the city, who knows, I could had easily got into drugs. Growing up with the parents I had saved my life as well.

Believe me, as bad as it is living in the city, whenever I get the chance to get the hell out of dodge by getting out of town, I’m all for it. During the summer, my sister and I would go to Park Rapids just to get out of town and the craziness. This summer, I was able to head back to my hometown of Hawley for my 40th class reunion. Even though it was nice seeing some of my classmates, it was much nicer getting out of Fargo.

It may be convenient living in the city but it’s nothing like living in a small town.

It used to be that when people who lived in small town will vote Democrats; but that has all change now. People who lives in rural area are now more like to vote conservatively and Republicans. Could it be they still have good values? I will continue with that thought in part 3 next week.

If you come into these small towns and disrupt it, be prepared for an ass whooping. You don’t mess with the people of a small town! If you’re looking at country-you’re looking at me.

In the ’80’s, it was “Mamas,don’t let your boys be cowboys,” by Waylon Jennings. In that song, one of the line said to let them be doctors and lawyers and such.

When my nephew was young, he wanted to be a cowboy.

Who haven’t played cowboys and Indians as a child? I know I had played it back then.

Back then, it was alright to say Indians; now the political correct term is Native Americans.

Living the cowboys life may have been tough but life was much more simpler.A person didn’t have to worry about as much as they do today. As Toby Keith sang, I should have been a cowboy. Roaming the wide open spaces and sleeping under the stars. You didn’t have the government breathing down your neck like you do now.

Now Jason Aldean has a song out there called, “Let Your Boys be Country.” In the song, make them proud of that middle nowhere. Let them work the hay field sweating for a little cash. Teach them to say yes ma’am or no ma’am. May they grow up to be someone to be proud of.

Ladies love country boys! Country boys knows how to work and how to respect.There’s nothing like living in the country. It’s so much more peaceful and relaxing. Just getting out of town is the best cure for all the crazies.

It used to be that those who lives in the rural areas would vote Democrats; but that had changed completely. It changed because those from the country knows how to work and how to play.

I’m from the country and I like it that way.Even though, I didn’t much care at first when we first moved to Rollag. As I get older and the world gets crazier,I’m getting to prefer the country even more.

Like the old TV series,Green Acres, Eva Gabor would say,”give me Park Avenue.” Well to that,I say,”give me fresh air and the peace and quiet of being in the country.

In this series that I will be writing, there will be a theme about how much better living in the country and small town is compared to living in the big cities. Even though,the city may be convenient; it’s so nice just to get away from it all. Whenever I can I love to just get the hell out of dodge.As the song goes, “if I don’t come back, don’t come a looking.”

This may be short, but I’ll say more in the other 3 parts.stay tuned!
