The Beginning

Who knows how often I will write here. Often I find myself wanting to vent or discuss and no where to go. So I will try this venue. Warning If anyone ever reads this *** my grammar and spelling leave something to be desired **** so don't be dissuaded from reading. I have many thoughts on many things some important and some not. I truely enjoy honest debate and exchange of ideas. I like to think my ideas are somewhat well thought out (hence the reason I hold them) but none so blindly held that I won't listen to a competing idea. I don't really do well with people who just throw out an opinion with little or no thought . Some times my thoughts are scattered but that is the beauty of my blog. I have thoughts on all sorts stuff from movies, games, child rearing, religion, philosophy, people who have an obsession with politics, food, gardening.
Today I have an opportunity to do this because I am home and under the weather. I figured I would start with a bit of my background and point of view that I come from. I have a "conservative" ( but that term is relative to who is labeling) background but try to have a Catholic perspective on life. Yes I am a proud Roman Catholic or as some would say a "Papist" I revere the Churches 2000yrs of wisdom and Have found that whenever I find something the Church speaks on that doesn't seem right it has always been due to my ignorance. Upon researching the position the church has always shown me up. There opinion always makes more sense than mine and is definitely more well thought out. Especially when you consider I might think about a topic for 10 min and the church take months if not years to formulate a position..
I am An American with Polish heritage. I love my country and thank god that I was born and raised in the USA. This is a place where you have an almost infinite ability to succeed and conversely and almost infinite ability to fail as well. But it seems to be true that Hard works pays good dividends.......eventually. It always scares me when a Government start to "help" by not allowing people,businesses, and government programs to fail because conversely it prevents them from succeeding. (Tension of paradoxes- and idea from John Paul II's Theology of the Body )
God Has truely Blessed America. And like any child who has it good they can either learn to appreciate it or become a spoiled brat. I pray that I can teach my children to be appreciative because for now that is all I can do, Worry about how to raise my Family.
Well that is all I have for now . We will see that next time I get on here and what I have to think about.
