From the Desk of John Rourke – May 5th, 2015

Information is still coming in but it appears that the two shooters in Texas were acting with ISIS in mind – or at least radical Islam. I guess they should have known not to mess with Texas!

I am feeling rather philosophical this week. Consider “overreaction”. I often come across people that overreact to different words and topics. General acquaintances – those not normally within my inner circle – are so quick to throw walls up and will not discuss or listen. Take “politics” for example. I know a few people that as soon as they hear the word throw their hands up and shake their head – “I don’t talk about politics. I don’t care – they are just a bunch of crooks anyways!” I partially agree with that last part.

People hear about something on the Internet and overreact by basing their entire opinion on one thing. I have a co-worker that is adamantly against the Salvation Army because of their apparent stance against homosexuality.  The belief this co-worker has is incorrect and totally false. He failed to do any research and just took a random blurb as pure fact.

The truth is out there and we must be open minded enough to find it.

Weather forecast this week looks awesome. Time to take the top off the Jeep and enjoy God’s creation!
