When I think of abortion, my thought...So powerful! <br><br>When I think of abortion, my thoughts always end up in one place, "How can this BE?" How can a civilized people think that this is OK? How can a mother once "choose" to end this life (or to delude herself that it's not life at all), and then a year or two later watch anxiously as the ultrasound tech looks for the first signs of a wanted child? <br><br>And what of the voices of the women who have done this? Either publicly or privately, I've come across so many women who have had abortions and they admit...it was a terrible mistake. It was something they felt they needed forgiveness for. What about them? Why are we not LISTENING to them? <br><br>Ack. It just makes my stomach turn. All those precious babes. Those soft cheeks. Those innocent eyes. Those sweet smelling heads. Those pudgy little fingers.<br><br>There are some things that just are not okay to make a "choice" about.<br><br>And what really pisses me off (pardon the language, but given the topic, be thankful that I hold my tongue as much as I do)...they are using MY money to enable women to more conveniently make this "choice". Makes me want to stand up as a conscientious objector and proclaim, "I WILL NOT PAY TAXES if this is what it is used for". <br><br>If someone wants to support the cause, let it be a private donation. And let them explain themselves to the giver of life one day.<br><br>Rrrrrr. I am Mama -hear me roar! <br><br>I don't care if it's politically correct to be angry about this one - some things just don't deserve a PC conversation because they are just WRONG on so many levels.<br><br>This is why I don't blog about this. I can't be calm and reasonable.<br><br>BTW - I just stopped by to say thanks for your sweet comments. You have a gift of encouragement, my sister. I love hearing from you :)Daiquirihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06040557437955969295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4171000125014278436.post-62534475772480827082009-04-25T20:10:58.987-07:002009-04-25T20:10:58.987-07:00That's not the half of it!

If this treaty is approved by Congress it will be the law of the WORLD. We all need to take a stand with our legislators and tell them we are WATCHING.Lynnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17474265587798491417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4171000125014278436.post-65679347988319237392009-04-24T08:51:41.561-07:002009-04-24T08:51:41.561-07:00Your readers also might want to check out citzenli...Your readers also might want to check out citzenlink.com and ask our lawmakers to support the freedom of conscience so doctors won't be forced to perform abortions...Lorihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14267638517817280040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4171000125014278436.post-23681717556664485492009-04-23T23:15:10.455-07:002009-04-23T23:15:10.455-07:00Bravo, friend.
