It's too late to make the corrections but we know what's coming. Mourn as is necessary and then allow the sadness to morph to anger.

Anger, in moderation, will drive you to do the things that need done and in the near future there'll be lots that need be done.

The important thing to remember is that this is all temporary but also Father is the only One worthy of inflicting suffering upon us ... others we are obligated to negate.
Yes, this is all temporary, but it still makes me angry. Angry that no one wants to acknowledge the truth about anything anymore. Angry that those of us who relish the past, present, and future of our Southern heritage aren't willing to do more. We take two steps forward, then get knocked 3 steps backward. People are just giving up. The progressives are winning the battle here. Just as with politics in our country. More should have been done years ago, but it wasn't, and look at where we are today. Just as our Southern heritage is being lost, so, too, is our country.

The same sickness that is destroying the South is the same sickness that's destroying this country. God is the only one who has the cure when it's all said and done.
