FAV2012:
I've chosen this as my favorite of the year because it represents the turmoil of our times.
In the US and Caribbean the deaths and devastation of Superstorm Sandy, the horrible negativity related to our US presidential election, and our major financial crisis can only be described as 'turmoil'. In other parts of the world it is war, senseless killings, governments toppling, weather-related disasters, etc.
I added the word "turmoil" to the title.
Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." ... <)))><

In reply, I am so stressed over the negative media and online coverage related to this election that I could 'spit' ... not ladylike, I know, but true. This election is being bought by those on the left, regardless of what way we want to vote. Arghhhhhhh #^@$^Y#@ ... sorry! There is simply no way to get to the truth! "Truth in advertising?" What a joke.
