August 9, 1974, was a momentous day in American history, not just because my first child, Rachel Tiven, was born in Atlanta that morning but also because a resigned President Richard Nixon left the White House in disgrace at lunchtime headed for political oblivion in California.
While reflecting on the complex and dynamic nature of the United States—how our strength relies on diversity and individualism, but also how this can sometimes lead to fragmentation. There's an undeniable tension in the idea that the country’s chaotic blend of perspectives, identities, and values could either be its downfall or its greatest asset. Diversity, while often challenging to manage, creates a kind of unpredictability that makes it tough to control or dominate the American spirit.
The idea that America is "uncontrollable" is powerful. It speaks to the inherent resilience and independence documented throughout the nation’s history. From the Revolution to civil rights movements and beyond, Americans have often defied authority or resisted conformity. It’s not always smooth or even peaceful, but it’s a persistent force.
The struggle for cohesion can be both a weakness and a strength. The fact that so many people, ideologies, and cultures coexist here creates a nation that's perpetually evolving, and often innovating. A fool who thinks they can control US might be in for a rude awakening.
What are your thoughts on how this mix of strengths and challenges plays out in current times?

I recall not having her around when I was younger but I missed her yesterday. We don't realize what we have until we lose it. No sun without her
I spent the day on my sofa and chair
Thinking she would be there
But she never came
Then I woke up and wiped the sleep from my eyes
And I rise to face another day with her again

Digital news and information #RSS content data is used, read, and transferred by computers, networks, and other machines.
It is represented as a string of symbols, such as letters or digits, that can take on a finite number of values.
Digital information is created by converting information into binary code, a language that uses only the numbers 0 and 1 to represent the on and off states of a transistor.
Computers and other devices use binary code to process words, images, sounds, and other types of information.
