Dear President Obama.
How's it going...? =)
My name is Matt and I'm pretty much your average dude.
I was born and raised in a loving Christian home in California. Lemon aide stands, soccer and football practice, cool bike jumps along with boy scouts filled my younger years. Like most Americans... in grade school we would start the day reciting the pledge of allegiance. We all knew that being an American was special as we enjoyed freedoms that our forefathers and ancestors made possible for our generation. Something that we will never forget.
So here we are today... fast forward to 2012 as the days are rapidly speeding up. Technology and innovation has opened our minds as we can virtually be anywhere with a stroke of our fingers. It's been an amazing last 10 years to say the least. Our awareness of how the "world works" is more apparent by the day. Most of us have been humbled in one way or another as we have learned life changing lessons over the last few years as our exhausted financial system has effected us one way or another.
You see Mr President.... as you have been solving the global economic crisis we here at home have been fighting amongst each other upon finally realizing that the system is broke.
We got a free market economy were regardless of the innovations the economics just don't make sense. We have a public (political) system that appears to be a high school reunion gone bad as its obvious that they just don't get it. Oh ya... can you please explain a caucus...?
=)
We have an entire generation.... more likely two.. that is wasting away as we come to understand that our hopes and dreams are not possible in the current system. It's like we are bound from the past as we still rely upon our exhausted financial system.
The more we interact with each other... the more clearly we understand that we all play a part which effects each others livelihood. From our homes to our schools... California to the Ivory Coast... China to Australia. We all need each other in order to thrive. The butterfly effect right...? =)
We got conservatives... liberals... independents... liberty freedom lovers and even the #ows. Once we awake to a certain point it seems to quickly become "can't we all just get along". We are all on the same TEAM (together everyone achieves more). 100% of the people and that additional 10% from the creator (which we all call a different name).
Bottom line such a change demands 110%. We all come to realize this at one point or another. =) So it's all good.
It was honest Abe that said "a house divided amongst itself can not stand". It seems this rings true from the ground up. Effecting our personal relationships all the way to our relations with people in other regions of the globe. We are all connected in one way or another.
I personally am not one to have all the answers. I don't think anyone does. There is no "I" in team. What we do know is that you are the leader and the mouth piece.
We have not lost faith in you. We stood behind you back in 2008 and we sit quietly behind you now. We elected you because we believe that you are the one to lead us through the dialogue letting truth prevail.
That truth with an inherent desire to "do good" and help others is what will guide us.
A wise man once said... "a nations culture resides in the heart and soul of its people."
Isn't that the "drummer for righteousness" that Dr. King spoke of...? Regardless of ones personal faith in their creator this seems to ring true. A universal truth lets say.
Please trust us Mr President. Deep down we know that you do. We are ready to do our part. First we help ourselves (recovery) then we are able to help other nations enjoy the basics that we sometimes take for advantage. Live and learn. It's the only way. =)
Bottom line is share the love.
Isn't that the American way...? Isn't that what we have been fighting for since the creation of our country via the constitution....?
We are ready sitting quietly as the world watches. They need us. We need them.
Thanks for all that you do President Obama. Words can't express the gratitude as truth prevails.
Lead us.
Do what you do.
Your the man.
=)
