                            VETERANS DAY



SO WHO ARE THEY, VETERANS, THAT IS? 
SOME PEOPLE SAY THEY ARE 'PEOPLE' THAT HAVE GONE 'OFF TO WAR'.
SOME PEOPLE CALL THEM, 'THE FORGOTTEN'. 
SOME PEOPLE SAY, THEY ARE 'OUR HEROES' LISTENING TO 'THEIR CALL'.

VETERANS ARE 'COMMON PEOPLE' THAT WANT TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
VETERANS ARE 'COMMON PEOPLE' LIKE YOU AND I.
VETERANS ARE 'FATHERS, MOTHERS, AUNTS, UNCLES AND SIBLINGS.
VETERANS ARE 'COURAGEOUS PEOPLE' THAT 'CRY'.

VETERANS HAVE BEEN TO PLACES THAT NEVER LEAVE THEM.
VETERANS NEED 'SUPPORT, KINDNESS, AND LOVE'.
VETERANS BECOME 'DIFFERENT PEOPLE' FROM HENCE THEY HAVE COME.
VETERANS NEED PRAYERS THAT REACH 'THE HEAVENS' ABOVE'.

VETERANS HAVE 'SCARS' THAT ARE MANY FROM THEIR EXPERIENCES, 
MOST COULD NEVER CONCEIVE.
SOME NEVER WANT TO SPEAK OF 'THEIR VETERANS DUTIES'
BECAUSE OF UNPLEASANTNESS NOR WOULD WE BELIEVE. 

VETERANS ARE BRAVE MEN AND WOMEN.
VETERANS ARE 'PEOPLE' THAT SERVE/SERVED IN A SPECIAL WAY.
AS WE CELEBRATE THIS, WELL WORTH, 'VETERANS DAY',
MAY WE SALUTE THEM WITH 'HONOR' AND 'GIVE THANKS' 
FOR GIVING ALL OF US BETTER DAYS.

MAY GOD BLESS OUR VETERANS AND GIVE THEM PEACE.

Until next time
God Bless

Today we have a right to 'vote'.........God help us all......

TODAY IS ELECTION DAY!  MY, MY, HOW DIFFERENT THIS ELECTION IS COMPARED TO ANY, EVER BEFORE!  Of course, only 'HUMANS' can vote.  Wouldn't it be wonderful if 'humans' could be more 'united'?    
Perhaps, sharing a little of 'nature' in the mix of things will bring a smile or two.   


I usually do not write, speak and/or even share about politics.  I do not like any part of them.
Wow, how times have changed from years ago in how 'politics'/'elections' are viewed, handled
and are represented FOR THE GOOD OF OUR U.S.A .  

Today, I have chosen to say one thing.  Regardless of any ones' 'opinion', 'belief' and 'right';
that person 'owns' it.  So, depending on how 'ANY PERSON' has chosen to exercise 'their right',
in my opinion; 'their space' should be respected..  NOBODY HAS 'A RIGHT' to condemn, judge,
act out in any harmful way. 

I feel the same about one's belief, as well.  It is so comforting to know that what other people think isn't 'any of my business'.  What a 'freeing feeling'.  I can say that this is a place that has taken me years to arrive to. 

As I woke this morning, I thought, "Wow, God sure has a busy day TODAY!"  And, on second thought, I thought, No, He doesn't; He already knows His people in every way.  He sees and He  knows the bigger picture.  Plus, He has given His people the 'free will' to choose their 'right to vote'.  It is time for 'the  people' to act out 'their belief/right/opinion through this 'voting process'.  

The days that follow into years to come, long after 'my generation' has passed, will have a lingering effect of today's election.  

May each person that chooses to vote to the persons that have chosen 'not to vote'; may ALL have made their 'decision' based with worthwhile thought and prayer for the 'right and real reasons'; 'FOR THE GOOD OF OUR CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN, and the entire USA.'

Until next time.
God Bless

'A BEAUTIFUL FALL DAY'

                                                     

            'A BEAUTIFUL FALL DAY' 

TODAY IS A BEAUTIFUL FALL DAY,
RADIANT IN MANY COLORS OF ORANGE.
THE SOUNDS OF CROWS' CAW, CAWING,
A SENSE OF NOTHING COULD GO WRONG.

IN THE SOUNDS OF GOD'S 'FREE AND LOVING CREATURES'.
ONE CAN STILL HEAR THE STILLNESS AND CALM. 
THIS TAKES ONE'S BREATH IN 'AN AWE' OF BEAUTY
OF THIS MIRACLE IN TODAY'S DAWN.



THERE IS A 'REASON FOR EVERY SEASON'.
'FALL' IS FULL OF BEAUTY IN COLORS OF RED, YELLOW, ORANGE AND BROWNS.
THE CRISP SNAP OF LEAVES AND THE CHILL OF THE BREEZE
BRINGS FORTH 'THANKFULNESS' THAT IS DISCERNIBLY FOUND. 

THE VERY NEXT MORNING SOMEWAY, SOMEHOW,
THE SAME THING WILL APPEAR BY 'HIS GRACE'.
AS THE NIGHT IS TUCKED AWAY, ONCE AGAIN, INTO  DARKNESS,
ANOTHER INFINITE BEAUTY WILL UNFOLD TO TAKE ITS' PLACE. 
                                                                                                                 Doris S/2016



                                                                                                               

until next time
