America Is More Fragile Than the Left Understands › American Greatness
I am transported to my childhood on a sunny summer day in Milford, standing knee deep in the tranquil ocean while barely 😰 sensing the incoming tide, surmounted by the wondrous newness of it all. Suddenly, I was struck by a surging wave that knocked me off my feet and spilled me sputtering into the briny brew. I had no hint then, that it was a portent of a dystopian future, though it seems apparent to me now.
What Hansen describes is what I felt at that halcyon moment, stacked and stored in the hidden recesses of my memory, emerging gratuitously like a tsunami at warp speed and dilating time itself.
In bygone days I laughed as I rose from Neptune’s brusque treatment and with the insouciance of youth waded deeper into the deep blue sea. The spill engendered a spirit of resistance in me then, and as it happens, the ”child is father to the man.”
The kindred spirits among us will plunge into the fray as in younger days when we encountered waves with a stratagem to ride them to shore. Even then the majestic omnipotent ocean was no match for our pluck and wit as we outmaneuvered force with skill. As it was in the beginning so it will be now, world without end. Amen 🙏
