And so it is true, we as a people are declining, and it is starting to became apparently obvious. The largest archdiocese in the nation, Chicago, is in deep financial difficulty. And guess what people, we are no longer the majority in education, the Charters are now the majority with more than 2.1 million and counting. Now can you see what will happen to us along the line?
To be honest, the children, the people of The American Catholic School System needs a leader, no argument there, but this is where my agreements come to an end. The people of The American Catholic School System not only needs a leader, but also a leader amongst them who shares in their struggles and understands them just as much as they understand their supposed leader. Doing so will bring the connection between the leader and the people where the common root or past is shown and revealed.
Indeed, most of them are not leader material, but there will one among who will rise. He or She maybe from Philadelphia, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, or even Chicago, he or she maybe creative and is a brilliant writer. OR, he or she may have a great idea in mine that could help us all in the future (in other words, us, The American Catholic School System).
It is inevitable people, midnight is slowly approaching, and the time to act is near. We are a people who is struggling for our existence and trying to survive in a new world that is a shell of its former self, we can DO this, so long as we are willing to do it.
