Really, I've found my touch.

Used to be that I was a rabble-rouser. Fomenting controversy. Just for the sake of bringing out the rabble. For entertainment purposes. But now I’ve reformed. Mellowed, so to speak. I’d rather bring people together. To solve political, social and economic problems. In constructive ways. Getting people to cooperate with each other. Even when they have sharp differences on the issues. Most problems can be solved, it seems to me. When there’s mutual respect. And a willingness to be fair to each other.  And an honest attempt to see the other side. Especially on controversial issues.  Yes, I’d rather be a peacemaker than a rabble-rouser. Makes me wonder. if I’ve lost my touch.  Or simply wised up. --Jim Broede
