‘Until They Are Home’

“Prisoner of War, missing in action, gone but not forgotten!”
Held on the 3rd Friday each September since its entry into presidential proclamation on July 18, 1979, National POW/MIA Recognition Day honors US military men and women captured, killed and or missing in action from not only the Southeast Asian War, but those before and after. For many, the death or loss of a family member or loved one is hard enough when the answers to what lead to their fate are there for one to see, but when their condition and whereabouts bear questions unanswered even years later, it is doubly hard. Such is the case for many of our family , friends and loved ones who have courageously served our country throughout the years. Deemed foolish sacrificial lambs by some, brave war heroes by others, these summoned soldiers headed to the call of their government and stepped onto the battlefield knowing in their hearts that a return home was not certain. There is much to say about why we fight wars, and who the winners and losers are. Some would say America won many. Some would say otherwise. A wise man once said that in war, there are no winners or losers, for the price paid is deep and longstanding. We celebrate those who have found their way home, honor those who have given their lives, and pray for those still out on the battlefield, today and everyday. However you choose to celebrate our uniformed personnel, remember these humbling yet powerful words from a true revolutionary:
“An eye for an eye only makes the whole world blind.”
-Mahatma Ghandi

Immigration
In Iran, if you cross the border illegally, you get put in jail and have to pay $500,000.00 to be deported.
In the United States of America, you cross the border illegally, you get welfare, food stamps and free health care!

Lindsey Lohan who?
I can't believe the news coverage being given to a spoiled 20- something year old.
Here are a few 20 year-olds worth knowing about: Justin Allen 23, Brett Linley 29, Matt Weikert 29, Justus Bartett 27, Dave Santos 21, Chase Stanley 21, Jesse Reed 26, Matthew King 23, Christopher Goeke 23 & Sheldon Tate 27.......
These 20-something years old gave their lives for you this week.
She is safer than our soldiers as she sits in jail for a few weeks.
I support our troops with all my heart.
God Bless them and their families who are anxiously waiting their safe return.

What Does the 4th of July Mean to You?

It's an historic date. It's a three-day weekend. It's an excuse to party. It's a noisy nuisance.
What does the 4th of July mean to you? With the 4th of July holiday upon us, the whole idea of ‘Independence Day’ has inspired me to ask this question.
Independence Day is all about freedom… But I believe that each one of us probably has a different idea or definition for what freedom really means.
What does true freedom mean to you?
