Wounded Warrior

April 20, 2008

Agree or Disagree this is the freedom of choice americans have.  We have this freedom because of the soldiers who have fought for the right over the past 200 + years.  However you feel on the subject I would ask you to remember that it is they, the soldiers, who fought for your right to say it and who defend you for saying it. 

Please visit the Wounded Warrior website at http://www.woundedwarriorproject.org/ to support them in return.  This means only that you support an individual(s) who’s lives have been forever changed through tragedy.  For this moment set aside the politics and seek to support the humans represented.  Thank you for your support.

This will be a learning experience!  By nature I’m a quiet person until someone gets to know me.  It’ll be interesting to see how challenging blogging will be for me.  I’m not shy so much as just not good at the small talk.  I’m aware that this probably hurts me as far as others perceptions of me, but am just not able to think of anything interesting to say as far as the weather, etc.   Subjects I would like to talk about and find fascinating usually get me blank looks in return!

 Here’s something I would like people to know.  When I ask “How’re you doing?” I asked because I’m interested in the answer.  Of course an individual has a right not to share this if they don’t want to, they can say “o.k.”  If I know them well I’ll point out “Really? Because you don’t look it”   

Is this presumtious?  How many times do you say ok because it’s polite?  What would happen if you told the truth?
