The Gulf and random thoughts...

Just some rambling thoughts....in no particular order.

I keep wondering when we will all wake up, and the oil spill in the Gulf will be just a bad dream.  But, it's not a dream and I am wondering if and when the oil will be stopped.  It is frightening. 
I find myself wishing I could do something to help.  Clean the beach, clean a pelican, and know the most valuable thing I can do is to pray.
Pray for the men and women to find a way to stop the "spill" (gusher!).  For our elected officials to keep politics out of the situation and work together for the future of this country.  Pray for the men and women working long hours under less than safe conditions, to help our birds, wildlife, and beaches.
You know, we are all to blame.  For our lust for oil and inability to see the obvious.  Things are going to have to change.  First, I wish everyone to let their anger and frustration be channeled in positive action. Second, let Congress know you want clean energy for our grandchildren.  Green energy provides jobs.  I find it amazing people do not see the reality of this fact.  But once again, we are consumed with greed, lust, self-interest, and a need to be better than our neighbor.
