A while back, I published the image above (and the poem) on my Facebook page. Lots of people "liked" it, and I thought it would be appropriate to republish it here. There are probably quite a few people who are not "Facebook Friends," but who, at least once in a while, do see the postings that I make available on this blog.
Those who regularly read my blog postings know that I am constantly urging us to get involved, ourselves, in "self-government," and in "politics," arguing that we can't actually have "self-government" unless we do just that, and get involved ourselves.
As Dr. Seuss tells us in his wonderful book, The Lorax, there will definitely be consequences (bad consequences) if we don't care "a whole awful lot." That observation absolutely applies to getting involved in "politics," and in "self-government." If we don't care a "whole awful lot," then "nothing is going to get better. It's not!" In case this hasn't occurred to you, let me suggest that the result of our November 5th election makes it more urgent than ever that we start caring "a whole awful lot" (and getting involved, ourselves, in that "Political World" in which we most immediately live).
