Standing for Something, or You Are Not Alone
Do you ever feel like you're just drifting along and when you finally speak up about what you see happening in the world those around you tell you to stop overreacting, or to be more tolerant?

Blogging Thru Song: Breaking Benjamin- Ashes of Eden
It's been a while since we've had a song post, so here you go. There's not much for me to add to this one.

I am a political junkie. I am a student of political science and I watch the news far more often than I probably should, but I like knowing what's going on and being able to engage in discussions that the power players are having.

Prophecy Watch: News Reports of Strange Trumpet Sounds in the Sky
I've read blogs, seen videos, and heard audio from people around the world talking about these crazy horn-like sounds coming from the sky.
