Bringing our soldiers home safely is what really counts
Worth cannot be measured in how much money you have. Until you have been in the deepest valley, you will never know what it feels like to be on the highest mountain. Some things cannot be measured — love, loyalty, honesty and truth.
A man named Blue, over 100 years ago, gave land for a church and cemetery, hence they called it Blue Hill. The bell was worth much. When someone died, the bell ringer rang the bell long. Farmers quit work, took their shovels and spades to dig a grave.
President Kennedy took naps in his rocking chair everyday. When he died it was worth thousands.
My grandmother rocked eight babies in her rocking chair. Was it worth less?
No one should ever feel worthless. Anxieties, prejudices and fear should never have dominion over anyone. Our noblest aspirations are achieved by sacrifice. Patience and perservence are the best policies. Contentment is good.
We live in the best country in the world, with fresh air to breath and we know we are free.
Animals have to kill to survive, but do people? Everyone pray for our soldiers’ safe return home. That is worth a lot.
Sincerely,
