THE FOUNDATION

"It is natural to man to indulge in the illusions of hope. We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth -- and listen to the song of that siren, till she transforms us into beasts."

Patrick Henry

"The Illusions of Hope."

I am afraid that there are many "Illusions of Hope" going around these days.

The only real "Hope" is in the determined will of the people to be reliant on themselves... with the help of Almighty God.

There are indeed many "beasts" roaming our land today... foraging off the people of the land instead of being producers... and those with ill advised yet seeming good intentions cause us to become co-dependent on the dependents...

Feels so good... yet oh so mistaken... so evil actually. It robs a person of their true self worth of being a provider as opposed to a user.

Sad beasts indeed.
