| February is the
month for Candlemass, Imbolc, Valentine's Day and President's Day in the
USA. This year, we are also watching a new President in his first
100 days in office. As I sit and
watch this man on TV I often wonder what is going through his mind. The
first black man to hold this office in the history of our nation. This is
a proud time. It is also sad that his race is even something think about,
but they do.
We have come so
far and yet have just begun the journey. This year, I ask that as you go
about your day, please think of all those people who have fought and died
for our great country. For those still fighting for others. For those who
have done their duty and returned home to their families and tried to
rebuild their lives. Let them feel our love and support. As spring
approaches, lift up your prayers in hope, thanksgiving and love for our
nation. So many people have lost jobs, yet so many have not. Many of our
members seem to be able to hold on for now. I pray that also continues.
So, instead of buying that rose or those chocolates, give the one you love
a hug and let them know how much you really love them. There is no better
way to tell them.
