THP - Day 13



So today not much happened but I've been thinking a lot. Planning, exploring, and reflecting on a lot about myself... and those in my life. I've been reading Sarah Palin's book "Going Rouge" because I'm so tired of hearing what everyone else has to say about her. How dumb she is. How close-minded she is. How she's TOO conservative, this that and the other and pushing her beliefs onto others. So, instead of LISTENING to what everyone else is saying about her, I decided to learn about her myself and take on this book. I'm finding out that she's quite a goal-oriented individual who is VERY passionate about the things in her life including politics, her family, and being a go-getter. There are very few people, especially women, who are as gutsy as she is and I'm finding it quite intriguing to read about her, through her point of view instead of what everyone else wants to make you see her as. I think its important to always maintain a curiousity and find things out on your own and don't just accept what others around you say. You can lose your freedom that way.

So here's to you Palin :) I'm one that isn't trying to completely tear apart your kids, embarace them, put you down, or completely rip your soul apart. The media has completely tried to tear you to pieces and I admire you for sticking your ground and doing whats right for you and yours.

Gotta agree with what you said about Jim Richardson ;-)
Not so sure about Palin though. From what I've heard or read about her, I just don't think she's got what it takes to be president. Look at Hillary, she's got much more experience and she's a lot more open-minded... Palin thinks dinosaurs lived 6,000 years ago.
