Just a thought

“Young people raised on color T.V. don’t spent don't spend a lot of time looking at black-and-white images.
That’s to bad. There are no better role models than Jackie Robinson and Sandee Blatt. The message in their stories is this: Complaining doesn’t work as a strategy. We all have finite time and energy. Any time we spend whining is unlikely to help us achieve our goals. And it won’t make us happier.”

Only in America

Only in America ........do drugstores make the sick walk all the way to the back of the store to get their prescriptions while healthy people can buy cigarettes at the front.

Only in America .......do people order double cheeseburgers, large fries, and a diet coke.

Only in America ......do banks leave both doors open and then chain the pens to the counters.

Only in America .......do we leave cars worth thousands of dollars in the driveway and put our useless junk in the garage.

Only in America .......do we buy hot dogs in packages of ten and buns in packages of eight.

Only in America .... ...do they have drive-up ATM machines with Braille lettering.

Yet, I still love America!!!

I am proud to be an Amercian!!

Yes, I still stand when the “Star Spangled Banner is Played,” I still put my hand over my heard at the Pledge of allegiance. I have had the very moving experience of standing in Fort Sumter, South Carolina and Looking out into the bay. Yes, I have stood as the Guard was changed at the tomb of the unknown solider.

I am writing today sitting in a good old American Starbucks; behind me, in line this morning, there were two young men in military uniform. I bought their coffee. These young men and their commitment have allowed me to still have my freedom, that freedom, which allows me to sit in a Starbucks and enjoy a cup of coffee.
