Big ideas in their place

Some days I get inspiration enough to write several blog entries.  Other days nothing comes, no matter how long I wait.  Today is one of the latter. So my intent was to post my latest Lewistown Argus article that I wrote yesterday.  However, the site wouldn't allow me to insert it.  Guess I don't know as much as I thought I did about blogging.

The down side of blogging is coming up with inspiration everyday.  The up side is I have become more comfortable with an expanded usage of the computer. Of course, the more I know the more I know I don't know.

I thought my kids could appreciate this cartoon, as they know me so well.  I can assure them, though, that I have no intention of getting that carried away.  So, breathe a sigh of relief. I'm just setting an example, with the idea that you never retire from a responsibility to make the world a little better than it was when you arrived.  Actually, in many ways the environment wasn't half bad when I arrived.  Yet, I can say that in other ways it is much better today, as evidenced with the air quality in America today.

I can remember in the early 60's, while living in Chicago, the air was so dirty that my son's diapers got black from the soot in the air when they were hanging out on the line. Yes, we also only had cloth diapers back then. I would hang them inside just to try and keep them clean. So at least we do have cleaner air now and continue to work on ways to make it even better.  We are getting better about other ways to care for our world, too. We know how to improve and we have set the wheels into motion.

The world in many ways has developed a concience and a sense of responsibility that many can be
 proud of.  For others who are not there yet, there is still hope. I'm not giving up on you.
