I was pondering the 'big picture' reality of our country at the moment versus my personal sphere and something interesting dawned on me. It frightened and intrigued me at the same time. I want to be a mom very much and the idea of having another little human excites me. Then I think about the state of our country and my mind says 'well, wait a minute...is bringing a baby into this the most responsible move ever?'
I ponder often as I read, chat, blog, try to absorb and then repeat that whole process! I believe in my mission, my person, my family and my country; what stumps me though is my lack of believe, faith and confidence in our leaders, in the big picture.

Looking at the "big picture" vs. our own personal lives is a hard one.
I'm looking over the promised help for mortgages, and hating it... what it does to our country, our people when combined with everything else. But there's a tiny part of me, that because of the situation we're in (both of us recently laid off and now facing foreclosure) that is hoping there might be SOMETHING in there that will help us.
Makes me feel guilty that as much as I hate what it is and what it stands for - I'm looking for a way for it to benefit us. My conservative beliefs say one thing, the mom/wife/about to be evicted homeowner side says something completely different.
