IN TIMES LIKE THESE:
Evil Is Recruiting & Looking For New Prospects
Some people may describe evil as chaotic and unorganized; I beg to differ. Evil is very much organized, structured, and running an operation in good standing. Evil has recruited a great list of influential and uninfluential prospects on his roster. He has politicians, educators, the rich, the well-off, the poor, judges, police officers, attorneys, athletes, entertainers, business owners, world leaders, corporate leaders, religious leaders, community leaders, financial experts, healthcare workers, young people, the list goes on and on.
IN TIMES LIKE THESE: Beware of evil’s most destructive weapons of attraction, deception, control, and power. These weapons can take the most unassuming and intelligent human mind and change its ability to distinguish between right and wrong or true and false. Once this occurs, that person completely loses their ability to accept, understand, or embrace reality. Deception deflects reality, while control restrains reality, and power oppresses reality. However, NONE of these weapons can function in the presence of TRUTH. I encourage you to surround yourself with people who can discern the truth and have the wisdom to distinguish right from wrong. Filter who you hang around, what you listen to, what you read, and what you watch, and keep yourself accountable to someone who will challenge your mindset and keep you in check. Finally, be kind and treat people with dignity and respect, and together we can produce more GOOD in the world.

We are so happy to highlight Aryanna!
Please enjoy the interview.
- When did you start enlisting? October 2020
- Which military? United States Air Force Military
- Why did you choose this path? I wanted to prepare a sturdy foundation for my career. I also wanted to be able to travel and experience the world.
- What do you love about the experience? I love that it is a new experience and I have many new friendships.
- Any interesting story or event you'd like to share? There were 42 enrollees in my group in the beginning; throughout the course of the week, 10 other ladies did not make the cut. It was really hard because we created close bonds.
- Are you still singing? Yes I am singing on my own. Hopefully I will be able to start singing, but this is based on my schedule.
- Now that you have graduated from Basic Training, what are you doing? I am located in Fort Sam, Houston, Texas. I currently have Technical Training and will be here for 4 months. I am here to learn my job, which is to become a Medical Technician.
We are so proud of your journey! Keep UNITY posted.
