Resident Input: Takes Me Back to When I Enlisted in '68
|
|
A great friend and retired AF General sent me the below poem which was written by a sailor from the Korean War era. So much of what he writes I remember. I
was moved by his writing and to be honest, choked up on the final 4 lines. See, I was a sailor for 29 years (12 active/ 17 reserve) and although I never made it to sea I never the less spent countless hours manning the watch...
I so love my country... We have come a very long way: some good, some bad. So what happened, and why do so many hate her? She has stood by so many in
good times and bad. Gone the world over for healing. Stood beside so many who had no where to go for protection and aid, yet so
many have such harsh words for her "good" people and the good things
that have been accomplished. Surprisingly, these harsh words aren't by people outside our shores, but
here within our shores.
We have lived the
past and many of us are seeing accounts of our history changed... why? And from events that have occurred during the past few months are we seeing the future? Are we seeing what is in store for ourselves and our children? What lies ahead will depend on each individual in America. Freedom and liberties are maintained by hard work, by blood, sweat & tears... it doesn't come without a price tag and it doesn't mean some can pay while others get a free pass. And it doesn't mean our property and monies, which we worked so hard for our entire life, should be stolen from us and our children. Laws are meant to be the same for everyone, especially those who represent us. That word "represent" is very important. Government works for us not the other way around and they are not to be making laws that further divide our country. Period... there is no debating that fact! The word "change" and "hope" we have been hearing better not be for the purpose of their hope in changing this nation from a free country to an enslaved country.
How important is freedom and who's manning the watch today? Even though this poem doesn't directly related to the above, after reading the poem I was moved to write what I was thinking...
Enjoy the poem...
