It's been a long time.....

I am ashamed to admit that for a while now I have been defeated. I have not used my freedom to express my opinions and beliefs for a while now...unless you count a blurb here and there on Facebook (which I don't). I have used health issues as an excuse. I have been lazy.
Some might say that is harsh, but it's the truth. A sadder truth is that it took Andrew Breitbart's death to shake me up enough to get off my ass and do something again. The man was and will remain a hero to me. I vow to do my utmost to live by his standard to see the truth and tell it where ever I go, to not back down and to not give in to the little voices that tell me I can't make a difference.

Rest in Peace, Andrew....may I live up to the freedoms that you strove to protect.

"The battle, Sir, is not to the strong alone; it is to the vigilant, the active, the brave. Besides, Sir, we have no election. If we were base enough to desire it, it is now too late to retire from the contest. There is no retreat but in submission and slavery! Our chains are forged! Their clanking may be heard on the plains of Boston! The war is inevitable; and let it come! I repeat, Sir, let it come!"

"A general dissolution of principles and manners will more surely overthrow the liberties of America than the whole force of the common enemy. While the people are virtuous they cannot be subdued; but when once they lose their virtue then will be ready to surrender their liberties to the first external or internal invader." -- Samuel Adams, 1779
