Warriors

I was lucky, yet I was also untested. The test of combat is a once in a lifetime deal whether or not you have the fortitude to stomach such a thing. I'm pretty sure I would have handled it okay because I was trained to do so. This video really captures the essence of that Warrior spirit. Thanks to all the service men and women that fight for our freedoms.

And the sun will set for you,
The sun will set for you.
And the shadow of the day,
Will embrace the world in grey,
And the sun will set for you.

Um..I rocked my chest

Good Bye George

I know some people hated George but I liked him. He did his best against some of the greatest odds that has ever faced any President.

As Americans, we believe in the power of individuals to determine their destiny and shape the course of history. We believe that the most reliable guide for our country is the collective wisdom of ordinary citizens.



Here is a great video of The President. CLICK

Greg's Brief Musical Brain infecting interlude

I Fear Not...

"They that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint." Isaiah 40:31

I'm passing the fear unto someone else because it doesn't reside in my heart anymore. I'm learning to be safe but disregard the warning signs and fear-inducing paralyzation of my will. I refuse to not let fear hold me back any further. I refuse to care what others may think of me and I will conquer any self-pride.
