flag: Despicable Act! - 10/20/08 04:00 PM

As I think about how to write this post, I'm also wondering just where I will post it. Maybe I'll just vent. Maybe I'll write about it but not post anything. I can't tell you the jumble of noise that went on in my head after this, but I've calmed … (42 comments)

Each of us looks at the American flag in a different way--from different experiences. To me it represents freedom.

On December 12, 1985, I awoke with a sense of "something" nagging at the inner depth of my being. I was uneasy and wanted more than anything to stay in bed. I thought to myself, "I have to get up because my two little boys need their breakfast." I eventually dragged … (15 comments)
