"Never Turn your Back to the Ocean"

 As I was driving home today, I heard this quote on NPR. A former lifeguard was talking about how important that is in that profession.

It occurred to me that we sometimes turn our backs on things we should pay close attention to, and an example of that is the current state of political affairs in this country. We cannot turn our backs on the vitriolic nature of a candidate, whose  name I do not call. We cannot forget all he has already said, and will say again as he "stays true to who he is."

No one can convince me otherwise, and do not try, that it is all a pushback from having had a black president the past eight years. This one makes Romney look like a choirboy. Obviously, he appeals to those who fit the category of "BPOTUS" hatred.

Those with a conscience, and a brain, cannot afford to turn their backs on this ocean by not voting. Oceans can devour us, drown us, or, overwhelm us when we turn our backs. 

Be vigilant-never turn your back to the ocean.
