Thank you to those who have given their lives, will give their lives, or will go out and make a change in this world. Your actions will never be forgotten. You will always be engraved in our hearts, minds, and history.Over the years I have become aware of all I have to be grateful for and ashamed of all the time I spent thinking I had none. I am sorry for all the mean, vengeful, and selfish words and acts that I have committed against anyone I know. I would never wish that behavior from or at my own children. Thats where we are at. My children, your children, and the children to come need to see love and kindness in everything that they know and do. The world is becoming a scary place. No one deserves to see death in their streets, loneliness in their lives, and evil in their hearts.
