As , i sit here, and watch the Aid concert on Tv.......
I am so proud to be in a Country where people..........DO care!
It is, so neat, to know how so many are lending, a helping hand to all
As, i went to work today, a lady was there from new orleans..All she wanted was help
She didnt beg, she just stood, at one of the stores, and stared
I asked her is she was doing ok, and she replied...........Yes
I detected her accent, and asked are you from the south as well?
And where?
She then let me know her story , and said.......I am in a host family here in Dallas
It isnt bad, but we have nothing
All i want ; is a job?!
I told, her of many places hiring,and she was so greatful
She explained how she couldnt beleive how many ppl and younger ppl were trying to help
So..................I am glad to be texan and american.
Seems "WE can stick together", when togetherness is needed.
So all do what you can, no matter how little you feel it is.!
And, I relise all," it doesn't matter what state your, in' or country............You are the one making it happen.
THANK YOU!

Thank you, Dayna. It is the people of this country making this happen. Not the government. The people were there first and will still be there when the govt has left. My faith in mankind has been restored, thanks to all my fellow Americans and people all over the world. We are receiving help from around the world. It does pay to help each other out. It not only helps the person needing it, it helps you feel good about yourself. That is what life is about. Helping each other and feeding off that sense of human kindness in each of us. Excellent Dayna.
Big hugs,
Rita |
