This blog is for you
Why You’re Here!.
We all know what state the economy is in. Everyday in the news there is another company closing its’ doors and tens of thousands of people losing their jobs and subsequently their life savings and ultimately their homes. Each day, if we’re one of the lucky ones to still be working and keeping our heads above water, we face new challenges as we tread. If you’re paying attention, I mean really paying attention, you find that seemingly inconsequential events are occurring at every turn. We do however, tend to overlook these events, depending on our current state of mind, until the frequency increases. With these increases our stamina for tolerance begins to wane. More and more peoples moods are changing and there is an underlying tension. Big companies unethical practices are making small changes that effect us in a huge way. It’s time to make them accountable for their actions. Although we complain no one is listening.
I started this blog so that we can point fingers, name names and share our stories. The more we are aware of the “small changes” the more chance WE have of making a change. Then instead of wondering, “Will Anyone Pay Attention To Us? WAPATU, we can say somebody finally listened!!!

I was laid off May 1. Still waiting. I’m lucky though in some respects. Condo is paid for. My wife collects Soc.Sec. I get unemployment insurance. So we still have savings et al.
There are too many not so lucky.
And the [people] in our capitals (state and nat’l) just don’t get it.
Let’s keep after ‘em.
Thanks,
Greg

Your attitude is enlightening, so many are so bitter about the state our government has left us in. It would a wonderful thing if “the people” in “our capitals” really seemed to care about the effect they have on us all. Maybe in that case, they would actually be listening to us. Good luck to you!

I was astounded when you said the original meaning of wapatu is wala pang tulog in Pilipino. Are you residing in the Philippines or are in any way related to any Filipino? I find your blog very interesting. Thanks for your post. God bless.

You are not the first to ask me whether I reside in the Philippines.
No I don’t. When I came up with the name, WAPATU, Will Anyone Pay Attention To Us, I wanted to make sure that I wasn’t stepping on anyone’s toes so I looked it up. It turned out the definition was somewhat relevant, so I included it. Sorry if I’ve disappointed you! 
Thank you for visiting and commenting. Best of luck to you.
