9/11 - Never Forget

"Will it happen again?"

"Would they do it today since it's September 11th again?"

Wow.

How do I answer these questions with the honesty my teens deserve? We've talked about this subject a lot lately.

Our conclusion?

The best way to make sure it never happens again is to never forget that it happened in the first place.

Confessions: Something to think about.

"You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the industrious out of it. You don't multiply wealth by dividing it. Government cannot give anything to anybody that it doesn't first take from somebody else. Whenever somebody receives something without working for it, somebody else has to work for it without receiving. The worst thing that can happen to a nation is for half of the people to get the idea they don't have to work because somebody else will work for them, and the other half to get the idea that it does no good to work because they don't get to enjoy the fruit of their labor."

(Ten Secrets for a Successful Family by Dr. Adrian Rogers, 1996, p. 138)

Today... please VOTE!


Did you?






THE issue.

If you listen to all of the news broadcasts, they will tell you that this election is the most important election of our lifetime. They will be glad to list the issues for us: taxes, war, unemployment, national security, social security... and the list goes on and on.

But, isn't life itself the most basic of all issues? When you get right down to it, isn't this THE issue?



If you haven't already, please vote tomorrow. Choose to vote for those who can't.
