Believe it or not?
First of all, I must announce that I am just about the most unpolitical person that I know. But I try not to be completely uninformed. I was just reading the commentary section of last Sunday's paper--yes I'm always a little behind the time!! As a read Peggy Noonan's comments on Sarah Palin, I was reminded of what I always try to keep in mind when I read anything political or anything about a person in politics. Everything written will now and forever smack of the bias, beliefs, background and experience of the writer. My mother always told me--"Don't believe everything you read!" I believe this is true more now than ever because so much more is being written. Don't get too wrapped up in what you read--it's just someone's opinion--God only, knows the truth and the true hearts and minds of people--even those in the spotlight. Same with things going on in the world--political books are simply written by someone with a strong belief (bias) in a particular philosophy. I'm not suggesting we stop reading--just be careful what you believe. There is one Truth--no questions about it's validity--and it's still a number one best seller!! Those are words you can believe--and we already know the ending!! Read on!!
