In a transient world that have flourish to billion dollar industries, technology that have caused the family to decrease in communications, the media telling too much...and our Nation leaders making decisions on our behalf...tiny churches turning into Mega Churches...and we wondered why our Nation is crying out for change.







I haven't traveled this journey to sit and see...

I've made a choice to change things, and not let them just be...

I've haven't traveled this journey just because of who I am...

I've traveled this journey because, like you, I had a need to learn more...

The situation is at hand...can you not see...

While they make decisions on behalf of me...

My son did not fight because he was told too...

My son fought because he had a right...to not just let things be...

So why should we continue to send our troops aboard...

To a ongoing war within themselves to be a constant war forever more...

I've haven't traveled this journey just because I wanted to just sit and see...

While these lame bodies lay dormant because for most of them they can't not see...

They traveled so...that we can be free...

Let not their journey be in-vain...

Because for me, my prayers are sent unto the Heavenly Father who does sit and see...and we must study war no more...

Are you too traveling this journey...are is it just, little me?

 

This poem is dedicated to all the

HEROIC MEN AND WOMEN

who

 HAVE BEEN CALLED AND SERVING.

THE TRAVELERS SALUTE YOU!
