Dreams

Nameless legislators;
Each day citizens of Kanawha County face the results of decisions made by our state legislators! Have you heard a comment on the many issues that have arisen in the community in the past year form the current legislators in the 30th District? The gambling expansion issue was sent from our legislators to the citizens, not a single comment from the 30th district legislators, the effect on the 30th district is undeniable.
Doing the will of the people should be the consideration of those that represent us in the state government. It has been suggested that a conversation with the constituents might be a good place to start, why hurry the elections are a year away!
The good news in all of this, re-election of these legislators is around the corner. You will see the signs appearing soon and the commercials will begin, out of their house into your house will come the message about all that they have accomplished. Rest assured they will not mention that their control of the legislature for the past 80 years has resulted in the existing malaise of our County and State.
Change is a dream for those that wish better days for Kanawha County and West Virginia. Dreams can become a reality if we bring action to those dreams; Change is a requirement for change.

Reform!!!

Change is uncomfortable, many of us are settled in our niche and have made our personal lives as we believe comfortable.
Only those with vision for the benefit for all are willing to move out of the mainstream and begin the movement for necessary change. So many have made statements for change but are unwilling to suffer the pain of the work and sometimes the criticism of those opposed to that reform.
It has become common knowledge that West Virginia needs to abandon the government of the past, you only need to listen to the voices from all directions. Where are those that will brave the voices of opposition and criticism to begin the labor for that change? I hear those that lend their voice of opposition with out offering the required effort to move past the vocal.
Step forward, speak out, volunteer, contribute, and offer your assets for the required transformation to make our West Virginia Almost Heaven.
