"Live each day like it's your last." We do always need to be ready for Christ's coming.
I enjoyed reading this. Both my grandpas were WWII veterens and a lot of other ancestors and family have served in various wars thoughout US history.
Thank you for writing this and helping us remember what is important.

Know one knows the time, not even Jesus..the Bible does tell us we can know when the time is near by what is going on around us..for me, I'm living like the is the last day..if tomorrow shows up I'll do the same thing. Good piece. God bless.

    Yes, I agree Janie. The times sure are looking like it's "any time". We'll have to "look" each other up once we all get there. I'd love to introduce you to my family and get to know yours. Hey, we'll have eternity... :o) Boy, that puts a big smile on my face this morning.

I enjoyed this writing which is well presented. Yes there are a few spag issues there, but I am sure somebody else has already pointed them out.

I hate being pulled for missing commas etc.

I true tribute to those who gave their lives for freedom. As you rightly point out, it didnt come with a cost

For sure. And the people who head the religions with the doom and gloom predictions happily gather in the belongings of the faithful, then apologize and tell us the rapture is still with us when the predicted end doesn't arrive. I really get angry at some people, the leaders especially. Great poem that brings back a lot of memories. I was in and out just before things started to get serious in Nam. Excellent write. Ray.

    Thank you Ray for reviewing my essay. My ex was a para-trooper in 1960's. I had many high school friends that did not come back. I still struggle with how our Nam vets were treated on returning home. However, someday I know it will end. That is what I'm looking for.

I really liked your Commentary and Philosophy Non-fiction and also the poem you wrote. I felt it all flowed well
together and reminds us of many of the contradictions of why we don't live in love and peace. I think the picture and holiday you chose for this was great! An excellent read
for heart and spirit...............harmony13

Freedom is NOT Free. May we NEVER forget all the soldiers who have fought and many died for our country to keep us free. Excellently said. I enjoyed the read...and I love the song you chose. Nice.

    I'm glad you liked this piece. I've always liked this song, too. It was done in the 70's and what is so plain to see is that it still applies to today. It does not look like we have come very far...
