Poor among the Rich or Rich among the Poor? This is the question.

Who Knows What I Mean

My last article maybe gave the impression that I care whether Obama or Osama or McCain or Mac Donald is the winner or the loser.  What matters to me is not the knowledge or the academic title.  What really counts is to know how people and particularly my colleagues perceive the actions of our president and the impact his actions will have on our future and on  the kind of America we will have once Obama will leave the office.  By being a one party government without any opposition, he risks making huge mistakes, like Bush in his first term, for which he had to make major changes afterwards after many losses in casualties and equipment.

I received various answers, as some tried  to comfort me and some tried to align their views with what they prceive is mine.
 
All my writes are based on those principles. Which are: 

1. Has anyone seen that  nature's production is stingy? Or, in other words, has anyone seen any fruit tree which does not drop a large part of its fruit on the ground? This equals Generosity.
2. Can anyone tell me what is better -  to be poor among the rich, or rich among the poor?
3. Does anyone know for sure what the future will be the next day?

Of course, there are many other principles which guide my life.  Love, happiness and to be satisfied with his lot or destiny.

Obama is a great guy, but I don't believe he can resolve all the problems based on science or on calculated solutions.  My dad used to say "Leave it to the grace, as it will always be different from what you think".  Today I can tell that anything he plans will be different as nature and the spiritual forces do not bend to any human being. 

We have to do our best praying and hoping that we are on the right path, in harmony with nature and the spirit.

I would like to emphasize that the Obama administration is now in power and Mr Obama is my president. As a citizen I owe him my loyalty, although I cannot agree with everything he does or with everything he and his administration say.  This is my privilege to express my opinion

I can't agree with everything any adminstration says, but it doesn't matter because none of the ever DO what they SAY anyway.

Those are some thought provoking questions...and ones I don't know that I know the answer to. I believe your father said it perfectly though...that things always end up differently than we think. :~) And maybe the answers to those questions are different for each of us at different times in our lives...

Emile, the smart people ask question to their 8 black ball, when you don't, you don't get 7 years of bad luck, but 8! ! !

"... the actions of our president and the impact his actions will have on our future and on the kind of America we will have once Obama will leave the office."
Oh, dear...Oh, me oh my - methinks Pres. Obama was thinking the same thoughts when he ran for election to the presidency, just have to exchange the name from Obama to Bush :o)
Still...Blessings and Love - Micke
