It's to the Optimists of the World Thing

Dear America,

The difference between 

a flower and a weed 

is a judgement.

whoa nelly, 

what happened to the last thirty days?

well, wrapped around the holidays, the nation's capital has been fixated upon the Articles of Impeachment generated from the House, and now, the trial itself, only just beginning in the Senate. All the while, President Trump continues to do his job.

From the economic forum in Davos, Trump:

This is not a time for pessimism; this is a time for optimism.  Fear and doubt is not a good thought process because this is a time for tremendous hope and joy and optimism and action. 

But to embrace the possibilities of tomorrow, we must reject the perennial prophets of doom and their predictions of the apocalypse.  They are the heirs of yesterday’s foolish fortune-tellers — and I have them and you have them, and we all have them, and they want to see us do badly, but we don’t let that happen.  They predicted an overpopulation crisis in the 1960s, mass starvation in the ’70s, and an end of oil in the 1990s.  These alarmists always demand the same thing: absolute power to dominate, transform, and control every aspect of our lives. 

We will never let radical socialists destroy our economy, wreck our country, or eradicate our liberty.  America will always be the proud, strong, and unyielding bastion of freedom. 

In America, we understand what the pessimists refuse to see: that a growing and vibrant market economy focused on the future lifts the human spirit and excites creativity strong enough to overcome any challenge — any challenge by far

The speech was good. Worth reading.

The ability for any one of us to bear witness, to actually see the good in our economy,  seems to rest in a personal judgement.  Translation:  for better or worse, America's future will be a direct result of which thought pattern wins.  Our collective mindset must resist any form of pessimism, and see the flower; for this power of belief creates our world into the world in which we live, word by word, thought by thought, without fail.   It's falls under the rule of the natural law of attraction -- and it happens with, or without, consent.

It's good to be back today.

2020 is well on its way and it's not only going to be a great year, it's the beginning of a fresh decade! For myself, this American girl is hosting her own economic summit!  Hearings have only just begun,..but the thing is, I feel good!  SO excited about what this year holds for me, for only good will come of it.

And my wish for you is just the same, for every thing under heaven begins with a thought, so make it good.  And may the optimists win.

Make it a Good Day, G
