Few things excite me and anger me as much as politics. It excites with its complexity and real-life effects but frustrates me with the hateful rhetoric and dialigment between groups of people and lack of desire in seeking to understand (Stephen R. Covey's Principle # 5?). I think living by some basic principles would solve many of our nations problems, help us to get along and to be a much stronger and happier country. I hope I can learn to apply the principles directly, be a good example and effect positive change. I hope I can make a difference. Here's to see what happens and here's my first public contribution to the realm.
