Confession

I wake up every morning in regret. I go through each day haunted by the other me. But that's just it, there is no other me. Just one me; just one life. One would assume that this knowledge would keep me accountable. It doesn't. My guilt is not only for myself. Like anything in this world, everything is connected. I share my regrets with my girlfriend; pain worse than any disease. I have kept her from a pure relationship with the Lord. And for once I am taking responsibility. My heart is tired of just living in life, now I need to live for life. I will no longer be a waste. Mediocre prayers after selfish actions are not an answer. His requests to do shall not go un answered any more.

The Verge

We have entered the crossroads. On Friday Sandra Day O'Conner annouced her retirement, which gives provides Bush with the turning point of his second term. We all know how low his poll numbers are. Many have never seen the country so divided. Bush has the opportunity to do the right thing as opposed to being stubborn and doing what he wants. I predict the political demise of President Bush with this nomination. I see him choosing a hardcore social conservative who will follow in Bush's will. The Democrats will scream but will be unable to stop it. America will take one more step into becoming a nation of the majority. This is where America will slowly realize the harm in pushing your beliefs on people. A slight few will move from Bush's camp and when 2008 rolls around Hilary will be brought back to return America to the 90s (a place few want to be). I see all of these events as very negative. I truly have no faith in our government. Hopefully Bush will prove me wrong.
