If Opinions Were Based on Knowledge....

Dear Mr. President,

It is a rainy day, a day for a cup of tea. The sky is gray and if you just stand straight and tall and on your toes I believe you could touch those lumbering clouds.

I know this is a bit forward of me to suggest, but why don't you ask your wife in for a hot steaming cup of tea. When the children come home from school, why not offer them hot cocoa. You have the power to create lasting memories while you are living in the White House.

I have been wondering, are you finding some wise men and women who can provide you with clear counsel? It is important to remember that the look of wisdom is often disarming. You will find wisdom where others won't search.

This quote I take from a sliver of a book created by Ann Allan.

"People's opinions pour forth as water bubbles from a spring. How much quicker the world would be, with how much less tension, if opinions were silent unless based on knowledge."

As opinions swirl around you and if you feel you can not take it anymore, go to the Creator. Have a cup of tea with Him. The tea is out of this world and furthermore He is in Control!

Blessings on your rainy day,

Mrs. Burkholder
