I recently went through a phase where I felt uninspired with my blogging, and for me, I cannot write without inspiration. I almost forgot how much inspiration can be derived from other bloggers! I found the cure. My decision to write a weekly link love post was the best decision I’ve made. I will do my best to bring this to fruition every week.

Often in the blogosphere, writers of important information go without the attention they deserve. The fact is, there are two types of blogs that get the most comments of any other blog, money blogs and certain types of personal blogs who have droves of close friends. I love reading personal blogs! Having said that, some blogs deserve being read because of their pertinent content about important subject matter.
Euroyank wrote a post entitled, Why Blog – The New Blog Evolution – this is a great post! He wrote this post because I posed the question of why important information goes largely unnoticed. He authors 15 blogs currently and they all are worth checking out.
Being born and raised in America, I admit freely that I am ashamed of many things we do as a nation. Euroyank’s new post USA #1 Highest Poverty Rate Among Developed Nations, is a must read. This post is no shock to me, I live here, I know what it’s like. I live around 100 miles from New Orleans, Louisiana. This city is so filled with poverty and starvation it is unbelievable. Not only that, the police department is extremely corrupt and it’s extremely dangerous just to walk down the street without being robbed or murdered.
America is in the process of getting a new president. It is scary just thinking about who I will vote for…how can I believe what any of them say? We prove the old saying, “Money is the root of all evil.”
Bill Gates, the owner of microsoft, has enough money to feed every person on Earth! This is only one person. I cannot believe there are people starving anywhere on this planet. The fact remains that the people and banks with all the money will not help these people in any real, effective manner. That is left up to the common working class to take care of, even though they have no money themselves.
Sure, Bill Gates gives millions to help people but that’s not enough. I say he should give billions, not millions. Another thing that is wrong with America is “minimum wage”. What is the absolute least amount of money people can be paid so they do not starve to death? Haha…minimum wage. I think minimum wage should be at least $25.00 per hour…especially if the company paying is a multi billion dollar corporation.
I don’t have health insurance, I cannot afford it. If I get sick…too bad for me. Health care should be available and affordable for every one. If I say it should be free for all, I will be branded a radical socialist…give me a break, there is no pure form of government anywhere on Earth. Writing about this isn’t enough, I am on a mission…learning about what I can do to help change things.
I want to say thank you to Euroyank for writing truly valuable articles. Some of you aren’t interested in reading about stuff like this. You all should pay attention to what’s going on in this world.

I call her Jackie as many of you do! Her blog is The Painted Veil, a wonderful blog we should all read. She wrote a post titled I Think I May Be An Oxymoron, which expresses a feeling many Americans share. I applaud Jackie for being brave and writing this post as many bloggers are afraid to say things with even the slightest political stance.
She is a person who believes in God, but has many liberal views…just like me! I like people of all races, all religions and all nationalities. I believe in freedom and love. I am against war and greed. I don’t look at why we are all different, I look at how much alike we are. We are people, brothers and sisters from all across the world. Let us embrace one another and spread love, not war.
Final Thoughts
I’ll be reconnecting with many friends this new year. I have the wisdom to avoid burning myself out, something I didn’t have last year. I want to thank the bloggers who helped me through my depression, there are so many! When I think about how many bloggers I know, it is overwhelming. How can I read them all? Haha…all I can do is try.
