Amma's blog: "I Am"

“Well, with all due respect, it’s not the Kennedys’ seat, and it’s not the Democrats’ seat, it’s the people’s seat.” said Scott Brown in a Massachusetts's senate race debate.

I was walking past the television and my ears picked up those words. I stopped and stared and gave a resounding "YES!!". Since the politicians seem to be understanding that WE THE PEOPLE have regained a sense of empowerment, that we understand we ARE able to find representation just by SPEAKING UP, it is surely time to educate ourselves even further.

With great power comes great responsibility - empathy, forethought, logic, charity, and wisdom must be part of what every American seeks to understand and utilize. History, Literature, Philosophy, and Science need to be studied as even leisure time activities. 

We do not want an "IDIOCRACY" (see the movie - it cannot be the future) so every citizen needs to become a beacon of hope.

Let your light shine.
