Tara & Joy Love to Ramble

Close the door. Write with no one looking over your shoulder. Don't try to figure out what other people want to hear from you; figure out what you have to say. It's the one and only thing you have to offer. Barbara Kingsolver

300


300 Warriors vs. a butt load of weird, magic, knealing Persians . . .
You have warriors that live and breathe to fight for a man and a country they believe in. They were bread to fight. They are proud to fight. Their women are proud for them to fight. They were made for this. And their leader fight with them, and is proud to do so. They live to be free and fight to stay that way.
Then you have Persians that worship and kneal before a giant, guady man that would not lift a finger to help them. They elicit the use of magic, kung fu, and sneaky tactics. They fight dirty because they only care about gaining followers (slaves) and gaining land.
Our World . . .
You have the United States of America fighting a war on terrorism to prove to the world that freedom is worth fighting for. They defend our country and our beliefs so that the world may see that the use of sneaky tactics and blatant hatred is not what life is about.
This is not to say that we do not make mistakes. This does not excuse our racism and our hatred. But we are fighting. Our men are standing up for what they believe in, what I believe in. They fight for the men to their left and right and those back home. They fight for their families, their country, and their freedom.
Our World . . .
You have a select few who can truly call themselves followers of Christ. A few that truly desire to stand on the front-line and fight for freedom. We are at war with an enemy who has numbers far greater than our own. An enemy that will not descend his thrown or risk himself for his followers, yet they accompany him still. There are a few that live and breathe the Word; they are dressed in the Armor of God and They are ready to fight for a man who has already given us everything. He is the only leader worthy of a following, for He is the only leader that provides true freedom.
I am no longer a slave for a slave does not know his master's business. I am a warrior; I have been given a "spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline." I am fighting.
