{{{ <<< 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." ![]() Theodore Roosevelt ![]() "Citizenship in a Republic," Speech at the Sorbonne, Paris, April 23, 1910 |

Vanessa, just wanted to say Hello. Hope you are feeling better. Hope you have a good night. ![]() Hello There Dear Lady ![]() thank you soo much for your love & kind words ![]() I am sorry, i cannot remember your name , ![]() or if i ever knew it ![]() i am kind of spread rather thin these days , ![]() seems to be the story of my life, ![]() although i am so very thankful ![]() for all my Family & Friends ![]() The Last i heard... Aunt Louise is resting comfortably in the hospital ![]() we don't know the extent of injury she sustained ![]() God is in control of her life & situation ![]() and it is not uncommon for lifetime partners ![]() 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... ![]() 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... ![]() and what other young child or teenager died in a car crash ![]() and the pain that that child's parents are going through ![]() not only to lose their own child, ![]() but to have the grace & love ![]() to donate their child's vital organs ![]() that someone else they don't even know, may live ![]() ![]() ![]() But we were just so close ![]() & we shared such tender love .. ![]() When Uncle Russ & Aunt Louise prayed, I could feel the Spirit of God soo strongly ![]() and Russ was a Paratrooper in World war II ![]() which i forgot to mention the other day ![]() They were more like Family to me... ![]() than many actual relatives of mine They were pillars in the Community ![]() and i am so happy that they got to meet ![]() all of my Children & my Grandchildren too ![]() and i know that it is only a matter of time when my own Sweet Mother & Father ![]() will each have to walk that same well worn & final path ![]() from this world into eternity ![]() and even though I am happy that they know God ![]() and will shortly be in his almighty Presence ![]() The void they will leave in this life, ![]() will be just soo tough & so hard to take ![]() |

![]() ![]() 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! ![]() And give time to share the precious thoughts in your mind. ![]() AND ALWAYS REMEMBER: ![]() Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away. ![]() ![]() ![]() George Carlin ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

![]() ![]() 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! ![]() |
