In love...despite the frailties.

I want a society in which everyone is guaranteed a decent standard of life. That’s why I’m a political/social/economic liberal. A socialist sympathizer, too.  And no friend of the Republican Party. To achieve my dream, it’s necessary to have equality of opportunity. Which amounts to access to resources such as shelter, medical care and education. Of course, the perfect society will never be achieved. At least, not in the physical world. Here on Planet Earth. More likely in the spiritual realm. If there is such a place. But still, that shouldn’t stop us from aiming for the ideal society. By working continuously for the common good. But that poses a problem. A stumbling block. We can’t agree on the definition of the common good. I have mine. You have yours. But still, I’m happy. Because I’m in love – with life. Despite the frailties. –Jim Broede
