In my day
When
I was little we lived as Neanderthals. My principle in School had a crew cut.
He was big with dark rimmed glasses and he never smiled. If he ever did smile
it would probably kill all us children because we believed “if looks could
kill.” My fellow kiddies would parade into the office for the strap. In a way
it was a badge. You weren’t cool it you didn’t have the marks (literally) to
prove it.
I bet he had the luckiest kids. The Principle
probably didn’t feel like whipping his own by the time he got home. We supplied
all his sadistic enjoyment. Did he like strapping children? Was it his belt?
Did it give my parents a break? Finally did sadomasochism come out of my early
years? In the end (ha ha) I feel our schools taught us respect, honesty, and
integrity. It seems to be lacking today.
Ok I’m going to say it “we are breeding a bunch of
pussies these days. There are people who are afraid of everything now. The
Strap would be considered genocide by today’s standards. A child advocate group
says it’s probably best if children stay off Santa’s knee for safety reasons.
My goodness people are you for real? Well, he might be a pedophile and the knee
might be unsanitary from all the other bottoms. Poor Santa, he tried to replace
Jesus and he gets no respect.
They are warning us several days in advance of a
winter storm. Are you kidding me? Sure it’s nice for the warning but when is
the last time a storm was called a “Weather bomb.” The weather man regularly
calls -8 bitterly cold. Listen sister than isn’t cold. They say wash your
hands, take shots for the flu, and stay away from Santa. Am I wrong? Did my
generation perish from the weather, disease, and Santa?
What does God have to say about Paranoia? I will
look at two things. I know I have mentioned this one several times but Matthew
6 is a good one. Jesus says relax today has enough worries of its own. In the
Psalms we have stuff like #23 “fear no evil for you are with me.” I know
churches that fist tap now to keep germs at bay. God and Jesus would think they
are nuts. They shared wine in a cup. Ya that’s gonna happen now!
I see that many postings say “our leaders are
ruining you” and “you better be careful of them.” Gee voting numbers are down
dumb asses. When I try and click on many of these posts I find that they are
hooks just to take me somewhere else. Lies posted to make us go to the real
agenda. Paul Revere has a club in the social world. Chicken Little would be the
president.
What am I to do with society these days? We are a
paranoid culture. What would happen if you got spanked today? We for most of us
we would call in sick. We go to several counselling sessions. Call my lawyer to
sue my parents for trauma and physical abuse. Maybe I’d kill someone and blame
society. I think we get sick more often because we avoid germs. Did you know
that your immune system inside you learns how to defend by getting sick? Did
you know you have an immune system?
Spanking, yelling, scolding, and denying helps grow
unspoiled children. As adults when things look like a weather bomb we laugh and
persevere. When we are told we can’t we tell those people to take a hike. No is
a good word you no. The Bible says “The truth will set you free.” Why do we lie
in social postings these days? Why do we stretch the truth to get a point
across? Fueling paranoia is not funny. It makes a soft society. One that Mother
Nature could take down with just one weather bomb.
