| As we close out 2008 under very difficult global economic woes that will follow us and our new President into 2009, I would like to remind all that America has found Her way back and better from every national adversity . . . be it economic, natural disaster, or war. We should always remember what our greatest generation endured, knowing America would not be if they had not persevered through the Depression, World War II and the Korean War. And we were blessed with many great leaders from them... like Ronald Reagan. So, let us all keep faith in America and our fellow citizens, as most of us share the legacy of the | |

I also think the song, Not Me, written and performed by country singer, Keni Thomas, wonderfully reminds us why America remains the greatest and strongest nation. (Keni Thomas has also been honored in "Stars There For The Troops".) Moreover, my poem, Holiday Blessings, that I wrote last December was written for a similar reason... remembering and giving thanks for all that America has endured, achieved, and shall still do in the name of freedom and justice. Nor is there a better time to do so than during the holiday season we are now enjoying in our own special way. May God continue to watch over our beloved America and brave, honorable troops . . . with special prayers for those in harms way! |
