I enjoyed watching 3 hours of the Restoring Honor rally yesterday morning. I don't care if there were 10,000 or 350,000 people crowding the mall area and beyond. I don't care what the talking heads are saying about how Dr. King's Dream Speech anniversary being stolen by this rally. I don't care if people don't want to know more but it was not political.
Sarah Palin attended and spoke. She was there as a mother of a current U.S. military member serving this great nation. She is a political figure but she's not running for office now.
A charity that helps the families of fallen Special Op brave men and women received $5 million.
I sat and watched, clapped, sang, and prayed. It was a faith rally, a call to return to God and the principles upon which our nation was founded.
I listened to Dr. King's message (Alveda King) and I was moved. I was not alone as I watched the crowd via C-SPAN and saw grown men wiping away tears, children waving flags, and so many enduring the hot summer sun.
It was not political. I wish I could have been there.
'til later

- Greetings! I have years, no decades, of financial experiences to share. I have a passion for education. I am a control freak in that I need to know where my $ goes. I continually ask myself do we need that, what risks are we taking with that investment, how/when can we get at our $, and just how much does Uncle Sam demand of our every earned $. Stay tuned to my life choices now and my references to life choices/experiences from my past.
