yesterday was 4th of july.
independence day.
the day of cookouts, swimming, country music and fireworks.
but my heart felt heavy.
because there are people who aren't living in america.
or another well developed country
who just want to live.
they want to be in america
to watch their babies grow.
to survive.
to have a way to have a better life than their parents did.
the are expecting the rainbows and butterflies.
but now they're stuck.
without basic human needs.
or at least many of the needs i get just because i was born in america.
i hate politics so much.
somehow because i was born in america and she wasn't that matters.
and its a bunch of crap.
because i'm a christian.
and there seems to be so many different types.
but to me and my bleeding heart christianity and politics just don't go together.
they're separate things.
because i want to love God and all the people He created more than my comfort.
more than what is mine.
more than space or money or time or anything else.
setting up walls and fences and prisons for people who just want to live doesn't feel very much like freedom.
