I WILL REMEMBER.

god bless our soldiers in Iraq and Afganistan

this is my favorite peom, by robert frost:

TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood,

And sorry I could not travel bothAnd be one traveler, long I stoodAnd looked down one as far as I couldTo where it bent in the undergrowth;Then took the other, as just as fair,And having perhaps the better claim,Because it was grassy and wanted wear;Though as for that the passing thereHad worn them really about the same,And both that morning equally layIn leaves no step had trodden black.Oh, I kept the first for another day!Yet knowing how way leads on to way,I doubted if I should ever come back.I shall be telling this with a sighSomewhere ages and ages hence:Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—I took the one less traveled by,And that has made all the difference.

"just because i dont beleive in god doesn't mean i dont have hope. i have hope, for the life i wish to lead. I have faith, in my self. I have love for my family, not because i have to, or i'm supposed to, but beacuse they have earned my love. And that bond is closer than any bond based on responsibility, feeling a forced bond, because this bond, this bond is real. hope, faith, and love fill me, effortlessly."

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

"Never forget, always protect, continue to love."

"People don't expect government to solve all their problems. But they sense, deep in their bones, that with just a slight change in priorities, we can make sure that every child in America has a decent shot at life, and that the doors of opportunity remain open to all.They know we can do better. And they want that choice."

"there is not a liberal America and a conservative America -- there is the United States of America. There is not a Black America and a White America and Latino America and Asian America -- there’s the United States of America."

"Hope -- Hope in the face of difficulty. Hope in the face of uncertainty. The audacity of hope!"

"And by virtue of the power and for the purpose aforesaid, I do order and declare that all persons held as slaves within said designated States and parts of States are, and henceforward shall be, free; and that the Executive Government of the United States, including the military and naval authorities thereof, will recognize and maintain the freedom of said persons."
