But I guess it isn’t completely our fault, the famous and the wealthy present the self as a Fabergé Egg. It’s difficult not to be astonished by the elegant design and expensive stones. To add to this illusion, big media pres- ents these eggs as if they were God sent, and folks are persuaded to give admira- tion to those who might not deserve it. Dazzled by the elegance and the shine, we sometimes forget to consider what’s inside the egg—we sometimes forget to question where the wealth and the fame originated from—we sometimes forget to consider what we’re actually bowing to and praising. Virtue or corruption—the light or the darkness—the angelic or the demonic, a choice is made when we admire those sullied by deceit and corruption and the choice is worsened when we know of the dirt that covers. —Mike Banghu, Amazon best-selling author MERRITT MORNING Please recycle Office Supplies (250)378-6882 Printing & Engraving (250)378-6808 1951 Garcia St., Merritt, BC 2037 Quilchena Avenue, Merritt BC 250-378-2155 FREE Delivery for Seniors & Those with Restricted Mobility BLACK’S PHARMACY PORK TENDERLOIN ON SPECIAL Merritt Printing & Office Supplies is now your local agent for Parcel pick up & drop off hours are Monday - Friday, 8am - 5pm, 1951A Garcia St MIDWEEK EDITION AUGUST 28, 2019 #3321 News, opinion, community events since 1996!
