Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life, but define yourself. Harvey S. Firestone

The people with whom you work reflect your own attitude. If you are suspicious, unfriendly and condescending, you will find these unlovely traits echoed all about you. But if you are on your best behavior, you will bring out the best in persons with whom you are going to spend most of your waking hours.

Some people get spiritual because they see the light and some people get spiritual because they feel the heat!

How do you know if you're truly a servant? See how you react the next time someone treats you like one.

a relief for those families who lost loved ones in 9 11, as I imagine this is another chapter closed. Then apprehension, but my gut feeling is more positive than not

yes and yes.

Answers? I don't know the questions. said...

For me, it's great to know that Osama is in his rightful place in Hell. As far as repercussions, the forces of evil will always try to attack the forces of good. Even with all the shortcomings that our country has, I consider our country as a force for good. Your entry at the top of your blog is spot on. Don't let fear bully you into silence.

Amen, Answers?. And I DO feel absolutely relieved, but good rhetorical point regarding repercussions. <-- That's the exact notion that came to mind immediately when I saw the front page regarding Ghaddafi's son & 3 grandchildren killed over the weekend.

Frightening times.

No, I actually do not feel relief because of Bin Laden's death. There are, unfortunately, many more of his ilk who are just as dangerous... and yes, I think there will be repercussions. Mo

Glad he's dead. Wish I could have done it. And yes, I think there will be major repercussions from his termination. Heck they freaked out last month when that whack job burned a koran in Florida. All we can do is be vigilant and watch each others back. I think the next attack or series of attacks will come from within. Like from convenience stores and cheap motels. It's time we take our country back.

I think that the idiots will try and do something but it will fail.

Thankful that our country has done what it said it would do. Maybe a closing for families that have lost loved ones. So sorry they all have to relive the sadness. We are more careful now and watch our backs. Mom

You know, the news has covered this subject non-stop for two days now and yes I am happy Bin Laden has been killed. My heart bleeds for all of the families who lost loved ones on 09/11, which totaled around 3000 souls dead; BUT-only twice have I heard mention of the over 6000 men and women who have died in service to our country fighting the war on terror. I am ashamed our President, during his national address to the country, only mentioned the few who actually carried out the final act and never even acknowledged the ones who have been there day in and day out for the last 10 years. One of the people who brought up this subject, was the father of one of the dead from the plane that crashed in PA. The other was a mother of a firefighter killed in the twin towers. I know it is a decision each and every service member makes when they sign that dotted line and I am not trying to sound negative and ungrateful, but we need to give credit where credit is due!!
