Memorial Day

Hi Folks,

Sorry I have been off a few days...lots to do before we head to Hawaii.

Today is Memorial Day ... Do you know what this day signifies? It is a day to remember all the men and women who have fought for your freedom - freedom to read blogs, watch youtube, attend a seminar openly, be your own boss, marry who you want, for men and women to walk and talk openly, for your right to vote, for everything you should hold dear.

I hear so many people complain about America. I have traveled to over 30 countries - and we ARE blessed! We live in the greatest country in the world. So many people have sacrificed for our rights. I hope all of you take a moment today and say a prayer - not just for the fallen soldiers, but every single person who has fought for you whether you wanted them to or not. So many people came back maimed, mentally destroyed, lost homes in foreclosure, had wives or husbands cheat on them, weren't here to see their babies born, and so much more.

When I hear people complain about America - I get so upset. My thought is - if you don't like it - move out! Most Americans wouldn't last one week in another country. Much of the world is very poor, has little resources, had no technology, or offers little opportunity for you to become a self-made millionaire.

I don't mean to be on a soap box, but most of us really do take for granted what a great life we have. Even with all the foreclosures, the high gas prices, the recession we are supposed to be in - we are still the greatest country in the world. Our country was founded on Christian values and I hope we can remember that - God has truly blessed our country.

I have some great stuff coming up this week, so stay tuned.

Have a Blessed Day,

Dwan
