So I have a couple of things on my mind today... First being the most important... I am so thankful that I live in a country that allows me the freedoms that I enjoy daily!! I am so thankful for the men and women who sacrifice their lives for me so that I can do the things that I do... I am so thankful that I was born in this country... I am so thankful for my Heavenly Father who has blessed me so much and allowed me to be born and this day and time... I am so thankful for the kids who grow up without their mom's and dad's around because they are fighting for our freedom... I am so thankful that we have been able to continue living while remembering those who gave their lives so freely!!
The ninth month brought the end to many,
The eleventh was a day of testing
Nine one one a call for help from any
It left no time of resting.
True warriors dressed in red suits
Navy blue or yellow
They called in all the recruits
To rescue ailing fellow.
What senseless acts of violence
Rain down on us today
What path will cross with terror
And cause us great dismay?
This is the world our children face.
Their lives are being molded.
The acts of hate, time won't erase,
Like a shroud it has enfolded.
What can we say?
What can we do?
As time whirls swiftly by
Let love be instilled with a family view
So our values never die
