Heres a little poem i read. I hope it touches you all!
"THE STAND"
> I read in the news, how you made a stand,
> you marched in the streets of our country's land,
> trying to say who is wrong or right,
> telling our country they should not fight;
> Marching against Marines, like me, here,
> defending the rights you hold so dear,
> assuming I love to kill and maim,
> acting like this is some sort of game;
> You call yourselves experts on what we should do,
> on September eleventh, where were you,
> while thousands of Americans suffered and died,
> are you trying to say this is something you can abide?
> Were you at the funerals as they lowered the caskets,
> maybe you should remove your rose colored glasses?
> I so, want to feel the comforts of my home,
> where recently I left my family alone,
> yet I'll do my duty in this far off land,
> so you can march on Washington and make your stand;
> Do not despise me for what I do,
> because truth be known, I do it for you,
> to hopefully free you from terror's arm,
> so you can have your freedoms, free from harm;
> What is the price, for the life you live?
> What is the payment you have to give?
> Is it starring in a movie, or singing a good song,
> that has kept you free for all this long?
> It is men like me, and others too,
> doing what our country calls us to do,
> sailing the seas to this far off land,
> while you stay at home and make your stand;
> I am not bitter, this is the life I choose,
> So the rights you express so freely, you will not lose,
> You may not support me for what I do,
> But you need to know, I do it for you;
> When this is over, when we are through,
> I would rather you just say, thank you,
> for giving you, the time you had,
> to march in our streets and make your stand.
> "Coming together is a beginning, staying together is a progress, and
> working together is success."- Henry Ford
