Order Out of Chaos:

On January 6, 2021, our nation’s Capitol was rocked by a group of hurting, angry, and disappointed individuals. In the minds of some of these individuals, all they wanted was for their voices to be heard on Capitol Hill, while others tried to forcefully “take back America!” I must admit, it was very disturbing what we witnessed. Such behavior could lead to an unhinged Civil War if not properly dealt with. Obviously, they didn’t get the memo: “We the people” are a pot of vegetable beef stew in America, and our value is worth more collectively than individually. Like vegetable beef stew, it requires a mixture of meat, vegetables, and herbs for those delicious flavors to come alive. Civil unrest is the direct result of one group desiring to overthrow their government with a belief system of having supremacy over all others in authority, status, or power. The truth is that one is a lonely number and two or more gives you unity and power. Let’s try our best to get along, and let’s do our best to value one another. I believe that eventually something good will emerge to give us order out of this chaos. We’ll just have to be patient. Meanwhile, just calm down, relax, and have a nice bowl of vegetable beef stew.
