As defined by Mahatma Gandhi:
In India when people meet and part they often say, Namaste' which means: "I honor the place within you where the entire Universe resides; I honor the place within you of love, of light, of truth, of peace; I honor the place within you, where, when you are in that place in you, and I am in that place in me, there is only one of us."
The word "HERO" is thrown around way too easily these days. It is as if every one who serves in the military is a hero. They are not, they are performing a job of choice. Some one once described a hero as --a person having a moment of temporary insanity--. We have many heroes in this country, and in the world. Few ever get their well deserved recognition. Most would rather be anonymous.
Amen. And Amen to quoting John Wayne.
ReplyDeleteDoug~ Amen.
