Memorial Day 2010: Freedom For Some

Happy Memorial Day.


In loving memory of all vets--including the brave

and honorable men and women who

served--and serve-- in silence, were removed in shame,

were denied care by the V.A. sworn to protect them,

and died in secret....

all because this world values a lie.


And we still argue on about who is 'worthy' to give their

life so that we may argue about who is worthy.


I miss my soldier...

I pray for strength.


Peace,

Robert

Hope
by Sri Chinmoy



Hope
Is kind.
Therefore
I mix with hope.
Hope
Is swift.
Therefore
I run with hope,
Hope
Is brave.
Therefore
I collect boundless strength


From hope.
Hope
Is sincere.
Therefore
I invite hope
To accompany me
To the Golden Shore.
