Some of us live with war in fear, others in anger. Some live with great wealth from thriving war related investments. Others live in ruin and decimation. Some live in spiritual gratitude no matter what the situation is. Others live with damaged minds and souls.

War continually roars and replays itself on the television and newspapers. It is hard to believe we have already been through two “battles” since the devastating attacks on that Tuesday morning 5 years and 7 months ago and a possible third one with Iran looming on the horizon.

The War on Terrorism has been going on for 5 years now and is not expected to be over anytime soon. The battle for freedom lives on with brave souls jumping and dying for the cause of liberty.

For some, we only see what is going on by changing channels. Others listen to the radio and watch the TV to see to the safety of their family and friends.

Some are waiting in anxiety and hesitate when the phone rings or the doorbell sounds fearing the news of death.

It is our duty as Americans to support those who defend our freedom. You don’t have to donate money or even send them a letter; you can say thanks by not changing channels when you see a story about it. Listen to the stories, and whenever you pass an American flag just smile or if you are religious just pray for their safety because it could be you soon on the battlefield.
