A BEAUTIFUL SONG TO SHARE WITH THOSE IN NEED WHERE PEOPLE OF ALL RACES AND BACKGROUND CAN COME TOGETHER
TO HELP THOSE IN THE GREATEST OF NEED:  
SUCCESS AND RICHES MEAN NOTHING IF IT HAS NO BENEFICIARIES...AN ANONYMOUS QUOTE

 

 
 There is a growing concern about this especially during Kwanza month celebrations

Even though unemployment across the nation is over 10%
its especially devastating to a group of Americans who still
have faith in our president of which their unemployment
numbers have swelled to almost twice the national average.

  Would you believe it! A Barack-Alike.
  Comes with his own limo,secret service everything.
  The only thing it seems he doesn't have is his own
  bailout stimulus package to afford to quit his day job!
 http://www.gigmasters.com/barackobamaimpersonator/Barackalike/

 

  Prayer is what it's going to take…

 

Folks, If you have not noticed...few Presidents have ever worked this hard for our country,
having to deal with such hatred and ill-will.  
Many wonder, does he ever sleep? Only God can sustain such energy, knowledge and person.
Will you please join in this prayer?
Let's keep this going!

Lord,
We pray for optimum health, mental clarity and political prosperity for President Barack H. Obama.
We pray that what he lacks in political 'experience' you make up for with supernatural wisdom and power.
We also pray that when his enemies come upon him they will stumble and fall; and that your love will fill his heart to the end that
'Your will' be done through him.
We pray mightily for his protection. As we plead the Blood of your son, Jesus, over him and his family.
We reverently ask you to dispatch legions of angels to protect them from all hurt, harm, danger as he serves as the
President of the United States of America .
We thank you and praise you for answering our sincere prayers, in Jesus's precious name,
 AMEN.

All you are asked to do is keep this circulating if you are so inclined. May God bless and keep you..
You might not have voted for him, You might not even like him personally....that's ok!...but I wouldn't want to issue him too much ill-will
with him being in a position he's in to have the kind of decisions he's gonna have to make that will affect us all.

REMARKS BY THE PRESIDENT
ON WINNING THE NOBEL PEACE PRIZE
Rose Garden

11:16 A.M. EDT

THE PRESIDENT: Good morning. Well, this is not how I expected to wake up this morning.
After I received the news, Malia walked in and said, "Daddy, you won the Nobel Peace Prize, and it is Bo's birthday!"
And then Sasha added, "Plus, we have a three-day weekend coming up." So it's good to have kids to keep things in perspective
I am both surprised and deeply humbled by the decision of the Nobel Committee. Let me be clear:
I do not view it as a recognition of my own accomplishments, but rather as an affirmation of American leadership on behalf of aspirations
held by people in all nations.
To be honest, I do not feel that I deserve to be in the company of so many of the transformative figures who've been honored by this prize --
men and women who've inspired me and inspired the entire world through their courageous pursuit of peace.

But I also know that this prize reflects the kind of world that those men and women, and all Americans, want to build --
a world that gives life to the promise of our founding documents. And I know that throughout history,
the Nobel Peace Prize has not just been used to honor specific achievement;
it's also been used as a means to give momentum to a set of causes.
And that is why I will accept this award as a call to action --
a call for all nations to confront the common challenges of the 21st century.

These challenges can't be met by any one leader or any one nation.
And that's why my administration has worked to establish a new era of engagement
in which all nations must take responsibility for the world we seek. We cannot tolerate a world
in which nuclear weapons spread to more nations and in which the terror of a nuclear holocaust
endangers more people. And that's why we've begun to take concrete steps to pursue a world without
 nuclear weapons, because all nations have the right to pursue peaceful nuclear power,
but all nations have the responsibility to demonstrate their peaceful intentions.

We cannot accept the growing threat posed by climate change, which could forever damage the world that we pass on to our children
-- sowing conflict and famine; destroying coastlines and emptying cities. And that's why all nations must now accept their share of
responsibility for transforming the way that we use energy.

We can't allow the differences between peoples to define the way that we see one another,
and that's why we must pursue a new beginning among people of different faiths and races and religions;
one based upon mutual interest and mutual respect.

And we must all do our part to resolve those conflicts that have caused so much pain and hardship over so many years,
and that effort must include an unwavering commitment that finally realizes that the rights of all Israelis
 and Palestinians to live in peace and security in nations of their own.
We can't accept a world in which more people are denied opportunity and dignity that all people yearn for --
the ability to get an education and make a decent living; the security that you won't have to live in fear
of disease or violence without hope for the future.

And even as we strive to seek a world in which conflicts are resolved peacefully and prosperity is widely shared,
we have to confront the world as we know it today. I am the Commander-in-Chief of a country that's responsible
for ending a war and working in another theater to confront a ruthless adversary that directly threatens the American
 people and our allies. I'm also aware that we are dealing with the impact of a global economic crisis that has left millions
 of Americans looking for work. These are concerns that I confront every day on behalf of the American people.

Some of the work confronting us will not be completed during my presidency. Some, like the elimination of nuclear weapons,
 may not be completed in my lifetime. But I know these challenges can be met so long as it's recognized that they will not be
 met by one person or one nation alone. This award is not simply about the efforts of my administration --
it's about the courageous efforts of people around the world.

 

 

 
To Those of You Born
1930 - 1979


At the end of this is a quote of the month by Jay Leno. If you don't read anything else, please

read what he said.
Very well stated, Mr. Leno.


TO ALL THE KIDS WHO SURVIVED THE
1930's, 40's, 50's, 60's and 70's!!


First, we survived being born to mothers who smoked and/or drank while they were pregnant.

They took aspirin, ate blue cheese dressing, tuna from a can and didn't get tested for diabetes.

Then after that trauma, we were put to sleep on our tummies in baby cribs covered with bright colored lead-base paints.

We had no childproof lids on medicine bottles, locks on doors or cabinets and when we rode our bikes, we had baseball caps not helmets on our heads.

As infants & children, we would ride in cars with no car seats, no booster seats, no seat belts, no air bags, bald tires and sometimes no brakes

Riding in the back of a pick- up truck on a warm day was always a special treat.

We drank water from the garden hose and not from a bottle.

We shared one soft drink with four friends, from one bottle and no one actually died from this.

We ate cupcakes, white bread, real butter and bacon. We drank Kool-Aid made with real white sugar. And, we weren't overweight. WHY?

Because we were always outside playing...that's why!

We would leave home in the morning and play all day, as long as we were back when the streetlights came on.

No one was able to reach us all day. And, we were O.K.


We would spend hours building our go-carts out of scraps and then ride them down the hill, only to find out we forgot the brakes.
After running into the bushes a few times, we learned to solve the problem.

We did not have Playstations, Nintendo's and X-boxes.
There were no video games, no 150 channels on cable, no video movies or DVD's, no surround-sound or CD's,
no cell phones, no person al computers, no Internet and no chat rooms
WE HAD FRIENDS and we went outside and found them!


We fell out of trees, got cut, broke bones and teeth and there were no lawsuits from these accidents.

We ate worms and mud pies made from dirt, and the worms did not live in us forever.

We were given BB guns for our 10th birthdays, made up games with sticks and tennis balls and, although we were told it would happen,
we did not put out very many eyes.
We rode bikes or walked to a friend's house and knocked on the door or rang the bell, or just walked in and talked to them.

Little League had tryouts and not everyone made the team. Those who didn't had to learn to deal with disappointment.


Imagine that!!

The idea of a parent bailing us out if we broke the law was unheard of. They actually sided with the law!
These generations have produced some of the best risk-takers, problem solvers and inventors ever.
The past 50 years have been an explosion of innovation and new ideas.

We had freedom, failure, success and responsibility, and we learned how to deal with it all.

If YOU are one of them? CONGRATULATIONS!

You might want to share this with others who have had the luck to grow up as kids,
 before the lawyers and the government regulated so much of our lives for our own good..

While you are at it, forward it to your kids so they will know how brave and lucky their parents were.
Kind of makes you want to run through the house with scissors, doesn't it ?


~
The quote of the month is by Jay Leno:

'With hurricanes, tornados, fires out of control, mud slides, flooding, severe thunderstorms tearing up the country from one end to another,
and with the threat of bird flu, SWINE FLU and terrorist attacks, are we sure this is a good time to take God out of the Pledge of Allegiance?'

For those that prefer to think that God is not watching over us...go ahead and IGNORE this.

For the rest of us...pass this on

This is a lesson we all need to remember. Be careful who you talk to
and never,ever turn your back on your personal possessions even when
doing someone else a favor. 
 http://www.wimp.com/goodsamaritan/

 

 
A friend sent me this and I received such an uplifting comfort in viewing it I thought I would
share this with our site viewing audience. 
 There's a very strong message in this if you read and listen to what its telling you.
 As bad as things may seem. The economy, job loss or even the loss of your home or a loved one
 There's still a lot of beauty out here in the world if you just look for it and embrace it when you
 find it. As you'll discover, its your shield of power to get you through the tough times in life.

40 years' worth of thanks

In 1968, a white firefighter saved a black baby girl, touching the heart of a divided city.
 The two did not meet again. Until yesterday

 

 Take a minute and listen to these guys.
I promise...You've never heard anything like this.

 On a personal note:
  There are those; particularly amongst his
  detractors that will say..."AHA"..you see! I
  knew it!  I told you so!"
  ...but those bearing these types of sentiments
  will always be around...waiting in the shadows
  of defeatism,negativism and discord..waiting
  for the first faint sign of a trait that depicts
  all men as human...a mistake!
  ...But the one vote I cast that helped place 
  him where he is today was not cast for 
  someone I thought could walk on water,raise
  the dead,heal the sick or feed the hungary
  with five fish and three loaves of bread .
  It was cast for someone who I thought that if they
  made a mistake... would own up to it and vow to fix
  it and ..move on.
  Its good to see that my vote has won a vote
  of confidence this early on.
  GOD BLESS YOU MR PRESIDENT!

   A February 2009 "Black History Message" to our Young People: 
 

…Let the celebration of Black History Month

February 2009 usher in a new vision of awakening in your life.

To cast aside those values and attributes that might have

kept you from achieving and performing your best

 throughout your daily life. 

For the only inroad to true freedom

lay within your own heart and mind .

Discover your own gifts; which is something positive and 

 constructive that you truly love to do.  Work and build

what you love into something that can be of value and of

service to others.  You will ultimately be provided with the  

residual rewards of self-fulfilling accomplishment that will

last you for a lifetime.

History will always pass its judgment in its
rewards upon those who can build over those who
only seek to destroy.
On those who find a love in being called to service
over those who only seek to...take!
Upon those who seek to inspire over those who seek
to discourage..
Upon those who seek love and forgiveness...over those
who seek continued jealousy and hate.
It's all about choices and your the one to make them.
Your the only one thats going to be held accountable
for the outcome.
So choose wisely my brothers & sisters! 
There is no harsher judge you will encounter in life
than you. ..and as long as your amongst the living
your conscience is going to be around for awhile
24/7.

  

    

 

NBC was surprised?
 
Here's your chance to let the media know where the people stand on our
faith in God, as a nation. NBC is taking a poll: should 'In God We Trust'
stay on our American currency? Please send this to every patriot you
know so they can vote on this important subject. Please do it right
away, before NBC takes this off the web page.
  
Copy and paste this message as e-mail to whomever you wish to send it to so they can have a voting opportunity

Poll is still open so you can vote. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/10103521/ 
 

   
              
  
     When I saw this I was overcome with emotion: WHAT AN INSPIRING EXAMPLE OF HUMAN    
    SELFLESS GIVING CAN ONE ACHIEVE. THIS LITTLE BOY IS FACING THE END OF HIS LIFE
   AND PLACES THE LIVES OF EVERYBODY ELSE BEFORE HIS OWN CONCERN.
   Its very reminiscent of someone making a recent quote: 
                                                                                                    
   "WE RISE OR WE FALL AS ONE PEOPLE"                                                 
    WE HELP OURSELVES BY HELPING EACH OTHER

MY DAD WAS BORN IN 1902.

HE GREW UP ON THE STREETS OF NEW YORK CITY

WHILE CARING FOR MY GRANDMOTHER

AND NOT SEEING HIS FATHER UNTIL HE MARRIED

MY MOTHER IN 1923.

MY DAD SAW MANY HARDSHIPS

AS HE WORKED FOR THE RAILROAD AS A PULLMAN

PORTER  FOR 45 YEARS.

HE NEVER WENT TO CHURCH BUT SAW TO IT THAT

I DID....IF HE WERE STILL ALIVE TODAY...GUESS WHAT! 

!  IF ANYTHING! I BELIEVE THIS WOULD'VE GOTTEN HIM
