Memorial Day Weekend

I am so please that it is Memorial Day weekend. I have started on my project building a BANS site and I am looking forward creating more and getting more involved with it. Also I am going to start a new contest with Vic at BloggerUnleashed.com.  I hope that starting the contest will be help me get into learning more about the ways to effectively create and promote myself as a blogger.  I am so happy to have taken this time today.  Not only just for me to rest, but to also acknowledge all of the brave individuals that died and make a sacrifice to keep us as well as future generations safe in the home we call America. I give great gratitude for their duty not only as Americans but just as people. I believe that it is brave to do and stand for what you believe in.  I feel that many people these days have lost that touch.  For example of the Prodestant Reformation.  These Christians took action for what they believed in. They didn’t just talk the talk, but walked the walk.  They dedicated their lives and death for the cause of Chrisitanity and lived it everyday of their lives.  Took time to learn about it and deciplined themselves so that their lives where centered around it.  That is what I call making a commitment.  Now I call myself a Chrstian? Where is my action? Where is my calling.   I was looking at a documentary on the history channel and I all of a sudden had a “a-ha” moment.  I started asking myself what do I truly believe in?  It gave me a chance to focus on what is important and what is not.  What I need to do to take action of my life and what I need to take action to get out of my life.

I think that today people are like machines. We plug in and out at work, plug in and out at home but do we really take time to stop and really think about what we are doing?  This Memorial Day, I will focus on what I believe in and what I need to do to call my self to action and duty.  I make the “call” for everyone else to challenge themselves to do the same.
