about outside the beltline

I grew up in a small town in eastern North Carolina, where I saw the local government turn what could have been a thriving community into a dying one.  I moved to the center of the state to get away from the kind of thinking that I saw all over rural NC.  I love my state, and I would never live anywhere else.  Even so, I still see some people holding us back from the greatness we could achieve.  I hate it when people tell lies or compromise their ethics.  I love my friends and family.

Question - if your spoused lived in another city where would you be?

So you are saying that this country was not founded on God and religous beliefs?

You are so right! I find it really intriguing how so many feel they can hurt others, and act completely childish, simply because they can't get "caught" and held responsible for it in person. Ahhh! The human mind is a complicated maze indeed! Have a wonderful evening! :)

Just saw your comment on two "eastern phrases" and wondered where in Beaufort County you are from. I grew up on the south side of the river (Aurora), how about you? I have to agree with your take on the politics there.
