rethinking ... hindsight


“We” are all of us ... the “human race”. We are the kings and queens of our optimism, and of our pessimism. We proclaim, and we declare.

FORECLOSURES:

“A study released today shows 233,001 homes were affected, 8% more than in December. Of that total, 45,327 homes were lost to bank repossessions.“ CNN (Headliner today)

Today, like so many other days of late, we are told of what happened in January to so many families. They lost their homes. The numbers in January were a continuing increase statistically over the numbers in December. And, it is part of an upward spiral that may continue yet many more months.

We are the ghosts of our past. The decisions we made in times gone before, the decisions we made in good faith, more often than not, are being called into question. The consequences of those decisions now - seem so unfair.... Yet they are real.
