Keeping a fox out of the hen house is an ongoing affair when it comes to chickens. Also the many other predators. You have something good and something is trying to take it away. You have to get creative if you want to hold onto your eggs. As well as determined. Trial and error comes into play. There's no quit here. You get the job done.
Democracy is fragile. Our founders recognized this. When George Washington neared the end of his 8 years as president his suppoters wanted him to stay on. He said What??? After we spent 8 years trying to remove a King. You want to install a new one?
Memorial Day is about those guys giving up on their dreams so that future generations could have a better life. Why would they do this? Perhaps it was for an idea that propelled them into action. An idea that would wreck their own dreams. To them they understood what it was to be really free. The word here is empathy. Empathy comes from Greek word pathos. Without empathy, what do you have? Isolation perhaps.
Today think on what freedom means to you? And why you like it.
