thoughts on the economy

Well, my feelings about our economy are very weak. I don't really know what to say about the whole thing. Maybe its because me personally isnt experiencing it or my parents. I usually can put myself in other peoples shoes and try to imagine what they are going through. It's not that I don't care whats happening with people's jobs it's just that I'm not thinking about this topic. It only crosses my mind when it's brought to my attention then, I usually just starting doing whatever I was doing. I'm not use't to people always talking about money issues and lost of jobs everyday. I mean, accept for when my mom says the simple words "I'm broke" but I'm sure every child has to hear their parents say that so I'm not quite sure if you can really compare. Anyways, since were on the topic and I'm actually thinking about it. My thoughts and concerns are hopeful. I dont really think theres much I can do about anything but all I can do is hope for the best. I dont know why the economy is like this..I dont see really anything wrong with it thats the problem I think. I usually have alot to say about stuff but this one just doesnt register for me. I must feel for the ones out there that work hard to pay bills and support their family, i must feel for them and I do. The thought of people getting basically half their lives taken away from them because it "has" to be that way really sucks. My mom has been at her job for 25 years. She works hard and goes every day rarely missing a day or even a couple hours. She's the one who pays for everything. Shes been doing it her whole life, whole marriage with my dad. So, the thought of her losing her job is out of question, out of thought. I dont know what I would do. Life is life i guess and things happen all the time. We might think we have it bad but someone always has it worse then you. I hope the United States can get it together and pull it through. Obama talks about change and how we needed it and how he will do it. Most of his votes were based upon just one word he always said "CHANGE". I know it's not going to just happen like that but hopefully it happens soon. All the people that didn't want him as our President and doubted him, I hope he proves us all wrong. I always said just one person can't change anything and everything that happens in our Country cant be blamed on one person. Everyone blamed it on Bush and I thought that was very unfair for him. I'm not quite sure if that will be the same for Obama thought. I feel like if things dont work out in his pleasure and things arent "changing" people wont say anything about it because hes on this high torch for whatever reason. I take back what I said actually. Im not going to wait for Obama to change anything yes, he does have a big impact on alot of things soon to come but its all about life and life changing as people getting older, the years changing. It will all come together. God has a plan for all of us. Whatever is meant to be it will be. We have to stop blaming eachother and pointing fingers. We have to focus on ourselves and whats best for our Country. No matter what have to conquer everything that comes our way and stand united. We have to represent what our Country stands for. "These colors don't run". Thats what I'm hoping for.
