What Makes Me Mad?

If you ask me what makes me mad, on any given day you can hear probably about 10 or 15 different answers. There are so many things I can get mad at, stupid drivers who cut me off in traffic, the fact that I cannot seem to get organized this week, lack of sleep, my stupid relatives –that think the world revolves around them and we should just drop everything in our lives to fit their schedule. Or a current big one ... the Michael Jackson media coverage.

It just irritates me that just because he’s a celebrity and can buy his way out of the allegations that were brought against him that everyone is treating him like a hero in his death. If it were anyone else… a normal Joe than they would have no problem calling him a pedophile even if he was not convicted, I’ve seen it happen. But because he has money and fame then it’s just the tabloids trying to make money off of him.

Where is the coverage of our true heroes; the men and women fighting for our freedom, the men and women who have died while fighting in Iraq and Afghanistan, my brother recently returned from fighting in Afghanistan, where he had a comrade die in his arms, unfortunately he was just an average Joe soldier so he got no recognition from the media or the public.

As the Bible says in Isaiah 5:20-23 (KJV)
“ Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter! Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight! Woe unto them that are mighty to drink wine, and men of strength to mingle strong drink: Which justify the wicked for reward, and take away the righteousness of the righteous from him!”
