Those of you blog buddies who have paid visits to The Pagan Sphinx for a long time know, I think and hope, that I'm not one to get heavy-handed about political action. I put out what I feel strongly about and if that changes one person's mindset on an issue or topic, or even plants a tiny seed of awareness, I'm okay with that.
But I am really begging and pleading with you here on the issue of true healthcare reform that addresses a strong public option. I know that I'm preaching to the choir in terms of agreement on these things. So what I'm begging you to do is take it any one step further that you are able right now. Whether that is to write letters, send money, attend a rally or as our very own Utah Savage has done, help to organize events locally. And you still find that there isn't anything you can do, how about if you pass along to your friends and family, this incredible video. The soundtrack is that really moving R.E.M. song You Are The Everything, from their best album ever, Green. And those of you chose to bookmark my blog with your little icon but from whom I never hear, here's your chance to weight in. Besides, that will give me an idea of just how many of you actually even ever click to get here! No worries. But please do something and do leave a message about it here, there and everywhere.
"When the Amherst sphinx styled herself a pagan, she meant she didn’t believe in the biblical God. What sort of deity, if any, she did believe in is hard to pinpoint." -- Gary Sloan, "Emily Dickinson: Pagan Sphinx,"
