Over the last two months our family has been hit with one thing after another. First our dad is overseas then we find a duckling and put it in the bath upstairs where the water ran for several hours and turned our home into a hazard zone. Our floors and wall were taken out, the flooring company had no idea what they were doing so they removed and installed the flooring multiple times, our bathroom is still under construction and life is interesting.
Then one of our companies we've worked with for the last three years went out of business - but not before siphoning our bank account. We have beautiful pelicans that fly up the river in front of our home and someone is shooting them because they are hurting the salmon.
As we prepared for our Memorial Day celebration complete with US history treasure hunt and the playing of Taps (Devin sounds incredible) we smiled. No matter what lands in our path, how hard life gets all mixed up, we live in a country that allows for all these things to happen while at the same time giving us every opportunity to turn things around and learn from the experiences.
Our country's foundation and all that has happened to preserve it is nothing to gloss over. There is not a moment that goes by when we do not remember this. When we keep our God and country close to our heart we will not be lost. We will know that no matter what happens we can make through. Thank God for our country, Thank God for all those who defend our constitution, Thank God for those we love, and Thank God for our unique opportunity -
About Me
- The Re-Founding Generation
- It is very easy to learn to take advantage of what we have, assuming it will not ever change. But life is all about change and learning from it; preparing for it. We as a country, as a society, as communities, and as individuals, must open our eyes and understand the responsibility we have to uphold our constitution. In order to do this we must know and understand its relation with the 10 commandments. That is what made the founding principals so powerful and gave our country its freedom.
