Re: majesticvisions
agree totally bhaskaring, the war vets see it all and most often many do not appreciate what they have been through.

Re:
Thanks soul builder - helping is a great reward in itself I believe too. The spectators, in my mind (meaning the press, news, etc) should dedicate A LOT more face time to all the helpers in our society!!!

Re: Citizens care about veterans
halfelven-so sad, but true, the citizens always care more than the people who are causing the cause (so to speak)!!!

Re: oh you are so right majesticvisions,
you are absolutely right
whirlwindaffair, they are angles in disguise, and NEVER get even near enough Thanks / credit for all that they do. Sometimes I feel like I should say Thanks even more than I do!!! Volunteers should be written about every single day in my mind!!!

Citizens care about veterans
It's the government that is all talk and damn little action. Doesn't matter which party, either.

Excellent statement here! Helping has rewards, noticed by the helpers and passed over by the spectators. It reconnects one back to the real self!

You, my dear are....
a very thoughtful person. I agree 100% with what you are saying.
I worked for five years at the Missouri Veterans Home and I loved it
so much. The reason I quit was because of Gas prices and I was forced
to work closer to home. But you are right. Our Veterans should be more
appreciated. Especially those who risk their lives for our freedoms.
One of my co-workers has a son who has been to Iraq two times and
was just deployed again a couple of weeks ago. It's madness. I pray for
them every day and night. I pray that they soon get to come home to
their families. I also pray most of all for their families. Great article.

What a heartfelt well written piece, and the message it encapsulates. War veterans have seen the pain, the agony, suffering, death, from close quarters, and they then devote their whole life to a cause for humanity's benefit. What transformation in the outlook and passion it brings about.
