President Abraham Lincoln quote

Every year in our old neighborhood the homeowner’s association would put on a fourth of July parade through the neighborhood of the kids on their bicycles led by a fire engine. The parade would end at the community pool club where everyone would be served snow cones.

Bob,
I’d love to do that. A neighborhood near here has a St.Patrick’s Day parade every year. Maybe it is time to bring those sorts of parades back again.

Congress issues a “Declaration on the Causes and Necessity of Taking Up Arms”.

Spaceman,
So many different ways to see who is guilty. So many ways to celebrate Independence Day.!

America is a shining city upon a hill whose beacon light guides freedom-loving people everywhere.

Spaceman,
At one time American was that shining city, but it isn’t any more.

Wow,
That was an extravaganza with great music, amazing dances and James Brown himself singing and dancing.
I enjoy the entire video.

I’m saying James Brown can flat get it. Great songs and a great show.

Absolutely, Spaceman!!

Of course that was Reagan. Similar text, sans America, from Matthew.

Spaceman,
I knew Matthew, not Reagan.

I know both and glad for it. Been doing a series on James. Can’t say I ever spent much time on James, but lots of wise stuff. Like1:19; My dear brothers and sisters, take note of this: Everyone should be swift to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry.

Spaceman,
I think he is spot on with his advice especially the slow to become angry.
July 6, 2018 at 4:05 pm
I like the be swift to listen clause, which is often skipped over in the rush to instant outrage. Proverbs has a lot to say about people’s mouths getting them in trouble. Been there done that multiple times. Generally doesn’t work out all that well.

Spaceman,
When I was growing up, I always got in trouble for what I said. I thought my answers were clever, but my father took umbrage. I spend a bit of time exiled to my room.

Well I’m sure you later figured out that in many situations that is better to zip it. Especially when there is little to achieve and more too lose – like with family. Of course with your position at school, I would guess you often had to be direct. But that can be done in a civil manner. For other school situations, likely much diplomacy was required and a carefully measured approach. A saying that it’s a lot easier to run a prison if you have the cooperation of prisoners

Spaceman,
I believed in the truth when I was an administrator. Parents needed to know and understand what was happening, but the telling could be done respectfully. My kids have always been good for me and to me.
