The Locked Door with No Key: Why Ohio’s SB 153 Threatens Our Voting Rights Imagine being told you must enter a building to access your rights—to speak, to be counted, to shape the laws that govern your life. The door is locked, and you're told you need a key. But no one will tell you what kind of key you need. Some folks bring house keys. Others arrive with driver’s licenses, birth certificates, even passports. They jiggle them in the lock—nothing works. They aren’t denied because they’re unqualified. They’re denied because the rules changed without explanation. This is the danger behind Ohio’s Senate Bill 153 (SB 153)—a bill that hasn’t passed yet , but is already knocking on our community’s door. What Is SB 153?

Do you practice using it or do you just keep it in your sheath? Your Invisible sword needs to be used on a regular basis in your battles of life. you must harness your techniques and constantly practice with it. You must keep it oiled and sharp, and ready for action.

The dangers of your mind are very similar to that of a sword. Because like a sword the mind cuts both ways. It can either cut you if used improperly, or cut your opponent. We have to constantly practice using our mind, and like with a sword develop techniques that are effective. For example what thoughts (strikes) are you throwing out into the world. Many of us constantly produce cutting blows upon ourselves by producing negative thoughts. We destroy ourselves long before our enemies can by throwing self destructive thoughts (strikes). the challenge for all of us is to use our invisible sword to create what we want to see in our world. Pick up your sword and practice your strikes, but make sure that you are striking with life, rather than death. Use your mind to build the world that you want.
