RMCIII 838 #1 Posted December 24, 2013 Where to begin, and how to put this, without coming across like a "scrooge"/ especially since it is just slightly over a day away from Christmas. We celebrate because we are free. But each morning I get up to watch the news, I am gently reminded, so many "Americans" have lost or never had a respect for our freedom.... To all my brother's and sister's in arms..... I hope one day our Nation respects you for all you have done..... Freedoms Cry If by chance, you should see me cry It’s not for those who fought and died It’s for the one’s, that don’t understand Freedoms price in this great land It’s for those with outstretched hands Greedy hearts from a foreign land It’s for the ones with a black hole to fill Unknown to them it’s an empty thrill It’s for those who never give Never feeling the power of how to live It’s for those who have bickered and complained But never tried to make a change It’s for the one’s that cannot see How shallow they are, “not even a please†It’s for all of these and so many more That mock what our “forces†try to implore The freedom we have is bought with a price Blood, sweat, and tears when “forces†unite So the tears I cry, may one day be dry In hopes of a Nation that understands WHY? 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flyovrcntry 115 #2 Posted December 24, 2013 Someone said America will be a great nation until the politicians discover they can buy your vote with your own money. There are a lot of generous people in this country,I pray folks will see whats slipping away,before it is gone. The greatest country ever and people in high places are intent on making us just another country. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oaktown1987 82 #3 Posted December 30, 2013 Amen not to get religious but I believe this was not per say a Christian nation but this country was founded on Christian values not say the founding fathers were Christians but the country was founded on those beliefs and the farther away we get from the those values the worse shape it will get like Phil Robertson of duck dynasty getting taken off the show temporarily he's Back on now but u don't even have to be a christian u can use the bible as a guide on how to be a good person there taking in god we trust off everything it frustrates me now people are starting to get mocked for being Christian I got no beef with any religion but more people should look to god for answers including me instead of trying to control are own destiny Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
