In memory of




A beautiful sunny day
Took my husband away.
After 46 years of joys and tears
In front of God he will appear.
He was a man of heart,
had fear to leave me apart.
I love him all
with all his faults.
His love is sealed
in my heart voult.
Hi heavenly beatitude
wll be my earthly fortitude.
Thank you Lord
For sharing him with me.
I know now he is with Thee.

Good Lesson

Everything I need to know I learned from Noah's Ark:
One:- Don't miss the boat.
Two:- Remember that we are all in the same boat
Three:- Plan ahead. It wasn't raining when Noah built the ark.
Four:- Stay fit. Someone may ask you to do something in your senior years.
Five:- Don't listen to critics. Get on with the job that needs done.
Six:- Build your future on high ground.
Seven:- Always travel in pair for safety's sake.
Eight:- Speed isn't always an advantage. The snail and the cheetah were on board.
Nine:- When you are stressed, float a while.
Ten.- The Ark was built by amateurs. The Titanic by professionals.
Eleven:- Ignore the storm, when you are with God there is always a rainbow waiting.
GOD BLESS US ALL.

Persecution and symbolism


Symbolism developed during persecutions. Persecuted Christians used the fish to recognise each other. To avoid declaring themselves they drew a curved line resembling half fish on the ground. The next comer who completed the fish was recognized as a Christian and accepted as such.

Symbolism




LIBERTY
The statue stands more that 300 feet tall and is recognized around the world as the quintessential symbol of freedom and American values. The statue of Liberty has welcomed thousands of immigrants and visitors to America since her dedication on Oct. 28, 1886.

Officially entitled "Liberty Enlightening the World," she was a gift from the people of France to the United States for the centennial celebration of the American Independence.
Today, Lady Liberty continues to watch over New York City from her very own island in New York harbor, lightning the way for a world in search of freedom.

FACTS ABOUT LADY LIBERTY:
The 25 windows of her crown represent the earth's 25 "natural minerals."

The seven spikes on her crown stand for the seven seas and the seven continents.

The chain under her feet represent Liberty crusching the chains of Slavery.

She has an alternate entrance located on the sole of her right foot
Her sandal is 25' long, that's a woman's size 879.
There are 354 steps, or 22 stories to reach the crown.

Symbolism has always been a wonderful way to express and connect. It is a shame that symbolism is put aside and forgotten first by educators, second by society and third by the families that make the society. Just like the death of a person, symbolism survived one generation and then vanished living big empty spaces that cannot be explained.

EQUALITY

Equality of mankind.
In my opinion the only equality is the moral evolution of man. Sure we are all equal as far as our animal instinct goes. But physically we are not. Few are born with three kidneys (my mother is one). We differ in skin colors, we differ in our believes. Each one of us is created equal for our moral evolution, we can chose to be good or bad. We can choose the honorable way of life or the criminal life. I believe that is the only equality we have. We can honor God and enrich our spirit or we ca chose to live our lives by our animal instincts. We are all created equal to chose our moral life. Other mammals do not have that equality given to men. Other mammals are bound by the laws of instinct, reproduction and survival. Animals kill only to eat and survive, men kill for control and pleasure. Men can only evolve through his spirit because he will always be bound by the laws of the earth. Our spirituality is our morality and our freedom.

America's Liberty

Americans trusted their elected representative too long. They elected their reps on their words, not knowing that their actions would be the opposite to their words, once they got in power.
They were elected to serve the people, but once elected they forgot the same people that put them there and represented their own benefits.
Everything has a cycle and people chose to change the political cycle they trusted for so long. The sleeping lion has awaken and he made his roar heard. We the People are the ones who give you the power and pay for your power. How can we pay for you if you starve us? How can we trust your empty words again? Hungry people are the ones who start revolutions. Share the wealth is an old sentence used over the centuries. No one has ever seen a President or a King sharing his wealth with the people. Why? Is it because there is an ocean that separates the words SAY from the words DO IT?

Christian Academy

The Prattville Christian Academy collected over 3000 dollars to help the WWII Veterans fly to Washington to visit their memorial. They're fifth and sixth graders that really feel the benefit of the American Freedom and they wanted to be part of America. The school invited the Veterans to speak to the classes. They were small children with big, serious questions about the Country and WWII.

Honor History


August 21st 2010. Out of the old confederate property exit a WWII Veteran to go on an Honor Flight to Washington D.C. to visit all the wonderful memorials. A guardian was assigned go guide him and take care of him. It was a one day charter flight to honor the WWII veterans. They all wore a bright yellow t-shirt with meaningful writings. "If you read English, thank a teacher. If you speak English, thank a Veteran". The guardian wore a gray t-shirt. At their return into the Montgomery airport there were hundreds of people to welcome them as heroes. Every waiving hand held an American flag. It was very touching to see people of all ages shaking the old veterans hands and thanking them for the good life they enjoyed because of their sacrifices. Some were on wheelchairs, others used walkers, few walked on their own. Their weathered faces looked very tired but they all had a glow of satisfaction. They were finally recognized as he heroes they were to offer their lives for their children's future well being and mostly for their Country. It was a beautiful show of Patriotism. We should go back to be proud of our Country and our God. Protect our Country and thank our God to give us the strength to protect it.

Honor your history
