Go ahead and use the statement as often as you like! But you have to do one thing first, not only use it....but live it as well! I will indeed pray for our new president, his family, and his cabinet. The crisis and challenges that we are facing in our country are unprecedent. We must be careful not to fall back into complacency and criticize that "things" are not moving as quickly as we would like for it to....we have to remember that not all change come swiftly, it takes time. It is going to be vital that we "really" jump on the bandwagon and buckle-down and ride this thing out. I am not saying that it's going to be an easy ride because it is not going to be! It's going to be very trying and difficult! But if we support our President and if we said wholeheartedly that we wanted change...then we must also do what it takes to bring that change about!

I hope that 2009 will be a year that all your goals are met!

I have to figure out a way to have messages sent to my e-mail address so this doesn't happen. Anyway, the name of our organization is Camp Tall Turf. Being from GR you might be at least somewhat familiar with us. You can learn more by visiting our website at www.tallturf.org or by sending an e-mail to info@tallturf.org with a request for information or to schedule a time to meet with some of our staff along with myself. I hope this isn't too late. Again, I apologize for the delay.

something new

What did you learn this week that you didn't know last week? For me, I realized that what harm is it to tell our elderly people what they want to hear rather then tell them how we really feel. And some times it's o.k. to not be right, as you noticed I didn't say it's o.k. to be wrong. LOL

Our children can be the start.....

Hey what if friends, i was watching the news last night and I see there is so much going on with our children in todays society, but I am having a problem with the portrayal of our youth in the media and the need to make sure all the negative things are pointed out at these kids, which leaves little room for the positive to be exposed. This to me gives people a negative view of our youth. Do you think the news is helping in trying to bring diversity/inclusion to the forefront or are they thinkin… Continue
