The place to be for positive reinforcements!

Peace!
Hello sunshine,

Have you ever been to Detroit?

Have you ever seen a place that looks like a third world country?

Detroit has all the images you could ever imagine. I just received an email from my brother in Georgia. He found this article about Detroit and all it's inner city troubles. I have to admit I stay away from the news. I ignore the reality of life around me if I don't like it or it doesn't directly affect me. The article is written to get you to start thinking about what kind of change is needed to help save the city and America.

As if going to our government is going to get the city on the right path. I really don't believe that. I believe it starts with the people that are living there. Only thing is do you think every single person hates it enough to change? I wonder. I think you can get used to your environment. You adjust your expectations and you made due with what you have.

I could be wrong but I have to believe that change starts from within. You don't expect others to change if your not willing to change yourself. You can change your thoughts first and than your actions.

Peace lives inside!

Love,
Michelle
