A message from one of our readers....

Dear Active Activist,

We hope you are enjoying a Happy Holiday season. We have written before thanking you for your efforts to expose the real workings of our North Texas political-monetary system of cronyism. Our belief and support remain unabated. We remain loyal readers even though at times your reports leave us somewhat depressed. 

When it comes to the giant money machines overrunning your hometown values, we would prefer to turn a blind-eye, even knowing full well doing so will only cause things to get worse. We hope that our kids will be as apathetic as we are and therefore not lay the blame directly ( and rightfully so ) at our feet. Your efforts, and those of your like minded activist, painfully remind us of our failure to protect our own real interest in favor of comfortable voyeurism . 

Having once been on the front lines of activism we know full well the oft felt frustration of trying to inform the ignorant, motivate the listless and bring the freedom of self empowerment to slaves of the almighty dollar. We know too, how the giddy rush of the occasional victory wipes away the painful memories of failed campaigns. It is those victories, no matter how small, that ignite the flame of progress. Few can be activist leaders, fewer still last beyond a single issue or two. However, all of us in this country are blessed to participate as quite activist for a better world. We owe that participation not just to our children, but to our species.

Thank you again for all you do.
