Since I have moved to Hopkinsville, I have noticed on posts, forums, and conversations with folks about the town that a lot of folks here seem to be mad about something. I do not know if it's a, "Kentucky", thing, as I have never lived here before, or if it's a fallout from the current American Condition. Everybody seems to have a gripe; the schools are trash, the politicians are thieves, the kids are, "gangstas", the parents are druggies, and so forth. I would like to propose a solution.

Whenever you get mad at something that is out of your control, try to remember this: God did NOT promise you tomorrow. There is no guarantee that you're gonna wake up day after day, so why spend your time on Earth being mad?  If you are doing what you HAVE to do, instead of what you WANT to do, then you don't have TIME to worry about the bad things that upset you.

Most of us have decent lives; we are still doing better than 9/10ths of the rest of the world. There are whole families on this planet that sleep on a 16x12 inch square of pavement- and you're crying about $3.00/gal gas? When we have always paid less than practically everywhere else on this Earth for gas since we started driving?

       There are a lot of folks here that profess a belief in God- then you need to start acting on that belief! If you trust God to make it better, then trust him!
