Almost a year later... best get on the ball!

Okay, so not only have I NOT "found myself again", I entered into yet another relationship that took my self esteem even further into the crapper!  I seem to keep attaching myself to men who I need to "fix", who basically do not want to be fixed and would just like to use and abuse me...

So, then I cry when it's over.  I ask God "why me?"  Guess what?  The answer to that question stares me in the face every day and I haven't recognized it until now.  It's simple...  I try to fix others so I don't have to acknowledge the fact that I am broken myself.  Maybe if I work on myself and leave these yahoos (that's what my sis calls them  lol) alone, I'll gain my confidence back.  Then maybe I'll feel good enough to find a man who doesn't need my type of "glue" and who'll be my partner instead of my project.  Maybe...  we'll see.  ON TO YEAR 2....

A Bit Off Subject: Illegal Immigrants... go home!

Hello!  I know I have been letting you follow my weight loss and self-improvement journey for these past few months but I am talking about a different subject today for school.  My "big idea" is to help America's economy by what I call "Closing the Lid on the Great Melting Pot."  Although it is not politically correct to say so, I believe that all states should adopt the law that Arizona's governor recently enacted and make it a crime to be in the United States without proper documentation (i.e. American citizen, green card, political refugee, or a valid visa such as student visa, work visa, or tourist visa... valid as in NOT EXPIRED).  In my opinion, there are not enough jobs to go around these days.  Therefore, the jobs that are being occupied by illegal immigrants would be freed up and available to legitimate citizens if all illegal immigrants were sent back to their country of origin.  Not only that, but our government can not afford to pay for these peoples' healthcare.  I think that our national debt would decrease substantially if all illegal immigrants were deported.  The problem is, how do we find them all?  I also am of the opinion that the fact that these illegals are working, but not paying taxes is tantamount to stealing for the United States government and every American taxpayer.  I like that this is a blog setting because I get to rant without sounding non-academic!
