Entry #113

Greetings from NYC the day after Al Gore spoke at NYU for the Move On organization! Did you see him? He was magnificent! It is so refreshing to hear a politician speak so truthfully and passionately about the current state of our country! If we can make it unscathed through the next seven months until we democratically win the Presidency, I think we might be able to crawl out of the nasty hole this regime has put us in. I apologize for the atrocities this regime has caused. I know Im not responsible but someone needs to apologize! The state of the world and our nation FORCES us to become politically active because as weve seen, if we dont, the nastiest of nasty people will take over and cause pain to everyone they touch.  I have always had a very hard time understanding the mentality of wanting to control people. I think you must not have a very uninteresting relationship to yourself if you need to put rules on other people and control them and their lives. I value freedom above all else except love! I know its been deemed hippy values and leftist ideals but love and freedom are more powerful than any kind of regimented control! Every beast and human fights for freedom when they dont have it! Love is the force that makes life possible! Good will reign and those who seek to harm will pay. I am so opinionated! It seems we have to speak out these days lest people who dont have our best interests at heart speak for us as an American People.   Pray for us as a global nation to make it through these next seven months. There is hope for a better future and now weve seen what happens when chaos takes the drivers seat. Make sure you vote in the upcoming presidential elections! Make sure youre registered!   Musically speaking, I auditioned for a band called The Healers and I am now their new lead singer! My own band is coming along fantastically! We have three shows coming up this month here in the city and weve added harmony vocals to our sound! It is absolutely beautiful outside today and were going on a Reggae boat cruise around Manhattan for our friends birthday! Im knitting up a storm as usual and I think the future looks more hopeful for our standing as a respectable country in the big ol world!   Jessica
