Peace it does not have to Elude Us

Posted on May 21, 2008 6:55 AM

After a discussion yesterday over coffee and donuts and the person said we went through a war and survived and even now people survive through wars and natural disasters.

I read today how Canada is one of the top peaceful countries in the world. I should be swimming right now only I had to put my thoughts down. I find that we take for granted this freedom when we complain about our police and politians and make fun of our military.

They may not be perfect as we should remember that it is also up to us to help in keeping that peace by caring for one another, not becoming jealous of what the other has or contentious.

Yesterday it was reported that Theodore (Ted) Kennedy has brain cancer. In a family that has seen more than its share of calamity. They still made serving one another a number one priority. So anyone who enters that family can not help to take on that responsibility also. Not only do they help each other, they have left a legacy of helping their country.

My point, we SHOULD CARE!!! Before we loose our freedom of speech, our freedom to worship, our freedom as we know it.
