If I could just live in that it would be great. However here is the thing. With the constant rash of mass shootings and terrorism on our own soil I need to do more than paint in my little world.
I have prayed I do each time. Many of my friends don't but I do as a person who believes in a higher power. I pray for the victims, their families and friends. I pray for the people who live near by and are in fear, the children who see this constantly around them anymore. I pray for the people who did it to see how fucked up and horrible it is. I pray for their families and friends who wish they could of stopped it. I will never stop praying because whether it is just something I do for me or it has any effect it hurts no one.
But folks there is a saying and if it has ever held true it holds true here. "God helps those that help themselves." I looked up this quote and it is attributed to many different people and places mostly ancient but it is unclear exactly where it came from. It is fine to pray , put a lecture on the subject on your Facebook wall but we need is to be more proactive and using I prayed as your service to help end this stuff is bullshit. Changing your avatar as your stand on social media is bullshit. Do something more.
A friend pointed out this http://www.bradycampaign.org/ and I am going to support it. I am all for our right to own arms. There is no reason on earth is should not be better regulated you should have to do at least what you do to drive to own a firearm.
So sorry this is more serious but I felt compelled to make a statement. Off I go to place my call.
