Some of us will have kids die
In a hell hole for no apparent reason -

And some won't - now, I can't quite figure out why.

I really am a dem and I can't figure why posts are moved - so please don't move it again - I am having a hell of a time just trying to read this one.

And I also know, ths summer is going to be a telling thing - I can't figure why, either.

I think just trying to think this one thru is a great thing -

Joe

2. August 29 , 2005 - a boy died -
the kid played guitar in my house - a really good kid.

Went to school for many years with my kid.

The truth is they were all really good kids.


I appreciate what you are saying - I do.

But I know war, what it does to people - I know.

Lived with it all my life -

I think America had enough, too - and we should.

And the truth is, it is probably too late - I wish it were other.


Novemeber will be bitter sweet, to some of us,

Joe

I do wish the best to you, though.

3. Oh, I'm so sorry to hear about that tragic death.
Sending healing energy to you and the family of the victim of this vile administration's policies.

4. No, it is ok -
My boy lived, Sharee's boy died - that day.

Within 24 hours I listened with horror to the kid (MY KID) Tell me what it felt like to get the snot kicked out of him - to be truly scared. I listened to him, so afraid my mom or dad were gone and could not listen - you know? They were warriors in a good cause. Best of the best.

No one could want their parents more - They knew war - I was just a novice parent - relatively.

I do appreciate your thoughts -

There are some here that know war, too. It says so much that they are HERE - you know??

I appreciate your thoughts and wish you the best -

6. Yep, it is just sick -
I know Mom blessed her cousin twice, when he left and the day he died outside Liege on January 29, 1945 - you never know.

You tell your wife Godspeed -

And maybe we all meet in 2008

I am a Catholic and I PRAY - EVERYDAY!!!


In the name of the father and the son - - and I am so sick of this too -


Gos bless all of us -

Joe

7. Thanks
I'm Catholic too (though maybe not a good one). Praying is what I've got but action is what I need. Hope things can somehow end and end right.

8. You are ok with me -
I never claimed to be such a good Catholic, really.

I pray - I pray every God damn day,

There was a song - "What-so-ever-you-do to -the-least-of-my-brothers"

Sticks in my mind - vividily -

So, I pray. I do NOT want the things that stuck with mom and dad sticking with my kid - ever.


Not ever -

Joe
