Amazing Grace "The story behind it "

Amazing Grace was written by a former slave trader
John Newton. Once sailing a ship full of slaves from
Africa his ship was hit by a fierce storm!
Newton feared for his life and got down on his
knees and begged the good Lord to spare his
life.  He promised the Lord that if he would only
spare his life he would change his ways and 
stop trading slaves.  The storm calmed down
and Newton wrote the song "Amazing Grace"
full of sorrow and love and hope that he
would be forgiving of his sins. 

Amazing Grace 3-2020 (beautiful)

My Beautiful Cities

I enter into the cities of
"My World !"
I can see all the remarkable
and  well structured
architecture all around this
city !
I can see the hustle and bustle
of the people !
Many taking buses , subway
trains, and taxi cabs.
There were monuments of
important people that were
held of high regard .
I slowly walk along the
sidewalks with people
passing me by !
I am not dressed very
fancy!  My jeans are
a bit dirty and my shoes
are worn out with a
hole on the side.
But I am not letting
that stop me !
I want to see this
fascinating wonder
to my eyes !
I have a red flannel on
with suspenders and
a backpack on my
back.
I am probably sticking
out like a sore thumb
but I can't let that
keep me from enjoying
this beautiful city !
I go into a coffee shop
and buy myself a cup
of coffee and a hot dog.
Conveniently I find a
green wooden bench
outside the shop to
take a load off !
Suddenly , I can hear
beautiful music in the
background ! It's a
fiddler playing a
Christmas tune  in
July ! It was so lovely
It brought me back
to my birthday !
You see I was born
on December 25th !
My Mother was a
beautiful Jewish woman
with an oblong face and
long brown hair. She
protected me and cared
for me. Her love was so
cherished and so pure!
As I grew up she listened
to my every word ! Her
leather strap sandals
followed mine.
Excuse me sir ' can
you move onto the sidewalk ?
A parade is coming through !
The people were making
their grand entrance on horses
and floats with patriotic costumes !
There were many red, white, and
blue flags waving in the sky !
Clown's were passing out candy
near the sidewalks with
 children eagerly waiting !
The people were all so happy
with food and music echoing
throughout the tall buildings !
The police were keeping
everyone in direction to make
room for the marching band!
This was a joyous celebration
of  "Independence Day" and
one could tell there was much
to be proud of !
I look in the distance and I
spot a large Cathedral beautifully
towering over the little shop's
below !
The streetlights began to
shine upon the city streets and
everyone was waiting on fireworks
to light up the sky !
Parent's were sitting by their
children keeping them close by,
and people of all ages were
mingling in groups laughing
and carrying on !
I decided to wait patiently
for the Fireworks show to
begin ! I pulled out my small
wool blanket from my bag
 and found a high spot on
a grassy hillside. I observed
the people on that eventful
day !  I found many interesting
places to visit and things to see !
The flowers and pieces of art
display was satisfying to
embrace !
This was such a lovely city !
I began saying farewell to
the people along the shops and
sidewalks ! I smiled with a
nod as I passed them by . They
were still being mesmerized by the
spectacular show in the sky !
As I go near the outer skirts
of the city ; I turn around
to take one last look of
it's splendor and
wonderful activities !
I stand near a beautiful
bridge made of brick with
light poles marking it's
way ! Before making
my exit ,  I proudly look
over towards the city !
 My  worn out shoes
 and red flannel shirt
became a soft white
color !
My suspenders became
a light shade of gray
 and my bag became a
 golden shepherd's hook !
I smile towards the
beautiful city with
my arms in an out
stretched position.
I placed my sign of
cross over the whole
city' with
my Divine Blessing!
 "I grant
you peace and love
among your city !
May you always have
unity , prosperity, and
complete love for one
another ! May you
forever keep your
faith, hope, and love
within  me and I in you !
I will never leave you !

Hallelujah

Heroic Acts

Heroic Acts !!
If we look up to a person who
we call "Hero'! Than the example
of that person must be set in place
underneath the category of
goodness upon humanity !
His or her example of courage,
bravery, integrity, self discipline ,
and being non-boastful will
define their virtues !
The person or people of
"Heroic Actions" places in
the ground in forwardness
and prosperity !
The effect and results of how to
make a change must remain
open minded and positive !
In order to make a difference
let's go forward of all people
in helping to uplift one another
in our daily works and actions !
We must try to have understanding,
love, compassion, and how to improve
our world in sound and productive
way!!
The key is how to peacefully
and successfully make that
happen !
Heroic Acts ' are often found
in our own family member's,
friend's , and co-worker's !
They are often observed by
example and they bring
forth Good vibes !
They are known of how much
work they put into their own
lives and the lives of those
around them !

Abraham Lincoln Tribute


Farewell To the Brave! Abraham Lincoln was born Feb. 12, 1809 ; both Pres. Lincoln and Martin Luther King were assassinated in the month of April

Farewell to the Brave !

I looked at the faces of my soldiers 
so eager to win this battle!
they wrote in their journals
of their messages and 
maybe good-byes to their
loved ones.
I looked at the faces of the brave
who were ready to fight the 
good fight for a greater cause!
They were restless in the night
for they love their brother's
at hand. I remember the one's
laughing and I notice the
one's who were quiet.  .
Oh' My heart was heavy
for these young men facing
battle !
That night I was in prayer+
The day of battle they 
arise with the sound of 
the drummer boy's 
ready to take their places!
The memories of meeting
their brother's 
 with each story
told! 
Together they held their
heads up high ever so
strong!
They followed the beat
of the drums and faced
their enemies ahead!
Together they listened
to the commands and 
the battle began!
Many of my soldiers
lives were taken! I
sadly could see 
their bodies
lifeless on the ground!
Blood of the Young!
Blood of the Brave!
Blood of the Black 
and White Soldiers!
They were more than
soldiers for they were
brothers!
Fighting for Freedom!
Freedom for Slavery
to end!
We won Victory on 
Gettysburg battleground!
My Union defended
and conquered the
confederates! 
My Soldiers will forever
be remembered!
Their Heroic acts of
selflessness will never
be forgotten!
The drummer boy's 
played their Victory
song for the proud !
 Our Freedom Rings
 for All People across
America !
Good work my men
of courage and 
farewell to the brave !

My Thoughts On Rioting in America and Our World! Martin Luther King's Quotes / The Elephant World video's

The Protester's who are rioting and destorying America ;
was the one thing Martin Luther King was against !
He wanted a change with peace, love, compassion, and
understanding ! Not all this destruction going on America
today !  No one or no group should use another person's
death for an open door to do hate crimes period !
It's young people being raised without love nor guidance !
We are now seeing the results unfolding !!

note: You will find "Martin Luther King Day" (Quotes) link towards
the bottom!

MY THOUGHTS ON RIOTING IN AMERICA! **************

AMERICA DON'T FORGET THE BRAVE AND STRONG
HERO'S!! ALL LIVES MATTER!!

Dr. Martin King spoke of Peace and Love and took it to the
streets!  The Rioters have only Hate and Blood to offer
into our streets !

In the Elephant World a young one raised without adults
act out in rage! Rioting are people who have been raised
without guidance!

MAY GOD BLESS OUR POLICEMEN AND WOMEN
AND GOD BLESS US ALL!!

GOOD ALWAYS CONQUERS EVIL! WHAT WE ARE
SEEING NOW ARE COWARDS WITHOUT LEADERSHIP!
SHEEP FOLLOWING SHEEP!
END THE HATE!

Parent's where is your leadership for your own 
children! Please intervene and STOP the destructive
behaviors!
Show them your love!

Those who live by the Sword will die by the Sword!
Don't follow leader's full of hate and destruction!
Know better and do better!

May God Bless All women and men in our
Police Force!  Thanks for your Bravery, 
Integrity, and Compassion on Humanity!
Blessings in God's Love and Protection!

Remember Satan's number one trick is.
Copycat of Destructive Behavior!  Creates
fruits of weakness, powerless, non-empathy
type people!

People of AMERICA!  Don't forget who we are!
Don't let people who CHOOSE to be destructive!
Be a reflection of who we are! HELP PRESERVE
HER!

I am Strong and yet fragile.
I have an abundance of Love.
and yet there is Hate. 
I have a History of Unity
and yet there is Division.
I have beautiful monuments.
of those who lost their lives in
battle
and yet they are being destroyed.
I have beautiful and compassionate.
people and yet they are being.
suppressed
I see kindness and trust in the 
eyes of others and yet
fear and anger has approached
them.
People's lives are prosperous with
hard working efforts and yet
they are becoming torn down.
AMERICA !
ARISE TOGETHER !
LET YOUR LIGHT BE SHOWN !
PUSH THE DARKNESS AWAY !
IN OUR UNITY 
ALLOW YOUR FREEDOM RING!
GOD BLESS AMERICA
THE HOME OF THE FREE !

America People !! Start Caring Now For We All Matter !!

To The World '
The rioter's have burned down our buildings
Mocked at our military !
Killed our policemen and women
They have ruined our Veteran heroic walls
The have torn down our loved one's grave stones'
Dragged and beaten men and women from their
businesses!  Stolen goods from the stores!
They have spat at us!
They have stabbed us!
Get some courage and take back Our Country!
We will stand no more of this chaos and violence.
of rage towards Our People of All Race!!
And yes, we do work side by side. '
We go to our churches hand in hand. '
We go to our schools Together!!
 We ALL matter!
 with 
Peace of God's Love and Stop
this madness of Division!!

We are to Never take someone's death and place the
Hurt and Blame onto another person or people.
especially when they 
 had nothing to do with it!
We are not to seek justice on innocent.
people!

We can have a million people marching.
for change! But if Love and Care for 
ALL isn't in our hearts; there will be no
change!

Love begins in the heart of the home  
in order to be given to others!
It depends on the love given from
the parents!

The World can protest for Peace and
Love to make a change!
But it still won't prevent Hate and
Division when it's TAUGHT in homes!

We Don't have a racist problem in U.SA.!
We have a "People Problem" with lack of
love and compassion! We receive it at Birth !

If the New's Media would STOP feeding into
All the frenzy and causing Division ' we could
live in Love and Peace again !

Racism is TAUGHT ! We can CHOOSE to
be apart of it OR simply be the bigger one
and walk away !

A MOVEMENT WILL FALL !

When a Person or Group  have a movement to make 
 change ; it should always
be of peace , understanding, and compassion!
If that movement becomes violent, destructive,
and gains no positive actions ; then the movement
will not take place successfully and will only fall !

O ' World may we love one another
and grant each other peace and blessings
of our Lord +++
