{{{ <<< To Our beloved & steadfast Troops >>> }}}


"It is not the critic who counts:
not the man who points out
how the strong man stumbles
or where the doer of deeds
could have done better.
The credit belongs to the man
who is actually in the arena,
whose face is marred by dust
and sweat and blood,
who strives valiantly,
who errs and comes up
short again and again,
because there is no effort
without error or shortcoming,
but who knows the great enthusiasms,
the great devotions,
who spends himself
for a worthy cause;
who, at the best, knows,
in the end, the triumph
of high achievement,
and who, at the worst,
if he fails,
at least he fails
while daring greatly,
so that his place shall never be
with those cold and timid souls
who knew neither victory nor defeat."drinker

"Citizenship in a Republic,"
Speech at the Sorbonne, Paris, April 23, 1910

Hello There Dear Lady flowerforyou


thank you soo much for your love & kind words :heart:
I am sorry, i cannot remember your name , blushing
or if i ever knew it flowerforyou
i am kind of spread rather thin these days , :smile:
seems to be the story of my life, happy
although i am so very thankful flowerforyou
for all my Family & Friends :heart:




The Last i heard...
Aunt Louise is resting comfortably in the hospital flowerforyou
we don't know the extent of injury she sustained frown

God is in control of her life & situation drinker
and it is not uncommon for lifetime partners :heart:
to pass away within a short time of each other


They were married for almost 65 years,

with two sons and a daughter & grandchildren too



Our pastor just thinks
that her husband Russ needs her in the next world
and God just may be graciously
calling her to her final home, too...

I didn't think I'd be so torn up about it though
being that they lived such long lives...drinker

i pass by the children's cancer center so often
and watch the helicopter land
on the roof of that building...

and i can only imagine what vital organ
and other vital tissue they are bringing
to a very innocent, very very sick
& dying cancer - stricken child...:cry:

and what other young child or teenager
died in a car crash :cry: or something similar
and the pain that that child's parents are going through sad
not only to lose their own child, :cry:
but to have the grace & love :heart:
to donate their child's vital organs blushing
that someone else they don't even know, may live :heart: :heart: :heart:




But we were just so close blushing
& we shared such tender love ..:heart:
When Uncle Russ & Aunt Louise prayed,
I could feel the Spirit of God soo strongly drinker

and Russ was a Paratrooper in World war II drinker
which i forgot to mention the other day flowerforyou



They were more like Family to me...blushing
than many actual relatives of mine

They were pillars in the Community drinker
and i am so happy that they got to meet blushing
all of my Children & my Grandchildren too :heart:


and i know that it is only a matter of time
when my own Sweet Mother & Father :heart:
will each have to walk
that same well worn & final path sad
from this world into eternity :cry:

and even though I am happy that they know God :heart:
and will shortly be in his almighty Presence drinker

The void they will leave in this life, :cry:
will be just soo tough & so hard to take sad

:heart: A Message by George Carlin : Rest In peace Dear Man ...we love you :heart:

The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings
but shorter tempers, wider Freeways, but narrower viewpoints.
We spend more, but have less, we buy more, but enjoy less.
We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time.
We have more degrees but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment,
more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less wellness.

We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly,
laugh too little, drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late,
get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom.

We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values.
We talk too much, love too seldom, and hate too often.

We've learned how to make a living, but not a life.
We've added years to life not life to years.
We've been all the way to the moon and back,
but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor.
We conquered outer space but not inner space.
We've done larger things, but not better things.

We've cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul.
We've conquered the atom, but not our prejudice.
We write more, but learn less. We plan more, but accomplish less.
We've learned to rush, but not to wait.
We build more computers to hold more information,
to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.

These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion,
big men and small character, steep profits and shallow relationships.
These are the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes.
These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality,
one night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill.
It is a time when there is much in the showroom window and nothing in the stockroom.
A time when technology can bring this letter to you, and a time
when you can choose either to share this insight, or to just hit delete...

Remember; spend some time with your loved ones,
because they are not going to be around forever.

Remember, say a kind word to someone who looks up to you in awe,
because that little person soon will grow up and leave your side.

Remember, to give a warm hug to the one next to you,
because that is the only treasure you can give with your heart and it doesn't cost a cent.

Remember, to say, 'I love you' to your partner and your loved ones, but most of all mean it.
A kiss and an embrace will mend hurt when it comes from deep inside of you.

Remember to hold hands and cherish the moment
for someday that person will not be there again.

Give time to love, give time to speak! :smile:
And give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind. drinker

AND ALWAYS REMEMBER: flowerforyou

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take,
but by the moments that take our breath away. :heart: :heart: :heart:

waving flowers as I prepare for one of the hardest days of my life to come, I know that our troops are facing those hard days daily and braving them with all their might and glory.

I have spoken with several Israelis and they all agree that the troops are doing the right thing and if it wasn't for the severe consequences that would fall on Israel, she would be joining the fight too.

Sadly, should Israel step outside of her State to help America in this war, she would be attacked severely by many Arab countries.

So Israel just has to stand by, like the rest of us, and wish our troops the best of luck.

So, from the hearts of many Israelis and mine,

COME HOME SAFE AND STAY STRONG!

Behatzlecha!
