Anyone who tries to revise history or to deny any event happens puts his or her own life in doubt too. If these events don’t happen more than likely any one of us does not exist.
People who are trying to change history do so in order to advance their agenda. It’s important to educate oneself and listen to the people who bore witness to events. The last thing we should do is go to an entertainer or a reality star to be informed about real things that real people experienced.
The thing about overwhelming evil is that those who perpetrate it come from a place that what they think is the only thing that matters. Asserting what they believe and imposing that belief on others even when it causes great pain is just a horrible thing to do. People deserve to live without people in the shadows plotting against them and stripping their dignity, freedom and choice of life. Today I was reminded of how very damaged people exert revenge on the world because they feel the need to make others hurt.
Serving others is a way of bringing peace into the world. When you help your brothers and sisters in humanity you bring them into a place where they can help others too and the cycle keeps on going. If everyone serves then the load is lighter and the work gets done faster. In scripture it says the generous will themselves be blessed, for they share their food with the poor.
Sharing what you have by giving of your time and talents is a great thing to do for others and the world. Doing for others means doing for yourself. There’s lots of good in being there for others and working to make the world a better place.
The Bush family is the greatest political dynasty in American history. I didn’t agree with everything they did in politics but they are decent people who worked to make the world better in their own way.
Tonight this nation mourns Barbara Pierce Bush who devoted her life to service to the country as its First and Second Lady of The United States. Rest in power Mrs. Bush.
