Once You Begin To Explain Or Excuse

I Was An Adopted Child Of My Grandparents, And I Don’t Know How I Can Ever Express My Gratitude For That Because My Parents Would Have Been A Mess.

I Think The Extent To Which I Have Any Balance At All, Any Mental Balance, Is Because Of Being A Farm Kid And Being Raised In Those Isolated Rural Areas.

The World Is Filled With Violence. Because Criminals Carry Guns, We Decent Law-abiding Citizens Should Also Have Guns. Otherwise, They Will Win And The Decent People Will Lose.

Before My Grandpa Built His Own Church, We Went To The Neighboring Town, And It Was A White Community. You Know, Up North, Mostly Middle European People And Indians, Chippewa Indians. We Were Welcome To That Church, But Once We Got In, They Didn't Know What To Do With Us.

Don't You Try And Go Through Life Worried If Someone Had Liked You Or Not. You Best Make Sure That They Are Doing Right By You.
