A TIME TO REFLECT:

Memorials Day has it's purpose in it's own special way. The Country reflects on the lives lost during our past wars. I'm sure there will be those reflecting on the lives taken and even given during the Civil Rights struggle. And some will be reflecting on their loved ones their sons, daughters, mothers and fathers. I personally have lost two sons in the last 7 years. One was killed a day before his 18th birthday in 2001 shot by a maniac who shot into a crowd of teens not concerned about who he hit. We went from preparing for his birthday celebration to preparing for his funeral. The other was killed in a motorcycle accident in 2007. However we mourn it is a loss rather we consider it senseless or not. Hopefully we can learn from the lives no longer with us that tomorrow is not promised to anyone, You only get one lifetime to get it right, The wrong decision could be your last one and Rather your here or not life will go on.......!

Happy Memorials Day

Deep,

My condolences at your loss. I can't think of a harder thing to face than the loss of your own child. May God bless and keep your Family safe.

Deep, also our condolences on both your losses, for it's a tough thing for a parent to have to say goodbye to their children.

I am so sorry for your loss deepthinker...That is a pain I can't imagine....thank you for sharing, sometimes hearing what other people have been through, can put things into perspective for others. I read your post and realized that my problems are pebbles compared to the pain that you have weathered. Thank you.

God, I know you gave your precious Son
To give us life with You.
But I didn’t want my sons to leave,
Cause they were precious too.
We all are precious in your eyes
And all to you return.
I know my sons will not come back,
And I still have much to learn.
Our time on earth is for learning,
And when our lessons are through,
Our spirit chooses the time we leave,
And we come back to you.
My precious sons are with you,
And there will be a day,
That I too will leave this earthly place,
And you will light my way.
I know your arms will be open,
And I will have a smile,
To see my God and precious sons,
I will then become Your child.



THEY ARE MORE ALIVE THAN US. AND YOU WILL SEE THEM AGAIN.

I feel for you Deep , And , my condolences . I can't imagine anything worse than loosing a child .
Youngblood , there are many things to do for young kids .
In my day , it was the Boy Scouts , canoeing , camping , skiing , snow mobiles [ they were made out of wood and stone back then , as we hadn't figured out steam power yet ] , mini-bikes , go-carts , sports [ hockey would have to come later , after a transitional period ] , dancing , music , learning to play instruments , and , last but not least , getting up to change the station .

It depends on the age group your dealing with and where you want the funding to come from?

A gentleman indeed. I am the president of a community action group in the city of Detroit established to promote dignity, honor and respect for it's citizens. People treat others the way they do because we allow them to but if we first respect ourselves we then can demand the respect of others.
