Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America's photo.

 

A NEW NORMAL? Yesterday in Florida, a retired Tampa police captain shot and killed this man - Chad Oulson - for texting his 3-year-old daughter, pictured here, ...during movie previews. The gunman also shot and wounded the man’s wife: http://abcn.ws/1eAWFNd. This tragedy underscores the out of control gun violence epidemic in America. The gun lobby is working to put more guns in more public places even though data shows where there are more guns, there is more homicide. In honor of this father, join us to help strengthen gun laws across the nation. We can, and will, stop the senseless killings of innocent Americans: http://momsdemandaction.org/join-us/See More

Schweitzers philosophy was summed up by him as "A Reverence For Life!" and he meant all life!

Any religion or philosophy which is not based on a respect for life is not a true religion or philosophy." ~Albert Schweitzer, (1961)

I stood by your bed last night, I came to have a peep. I could see that you were crying, You found it hard to sleep. I whined to you softly as you brushed away ...a tear, "It's me, I haven't left you, I'm well, I'm fine, I'm here." I was close to you at breakfast, I watched you pour the tea, You were thinking of the many times, your hands reached down to me. I was with you at the shops today, Your arms were getting sore. I longed to take your parcels, I wish I could do more. I was with you at my grave today, You tend it with such care. I want to re-assure you, that I'm not lying there. I walked with you towards the house, as you fumbled for your key. I gently put my paw on you, I smiled and said " it's me." You looked so very tired, and sank into a chair. I tried so hard to let you know, that I was standing there. It's possible for me, to be so near you everyday. To say to you with certainty, "I never went away." You sat there very quietly, then smiled, I think you knew... In the stillness of that evening, I was very close to you. The day is over... I smile and watch you yawning and say "good-night, God bless, I'll see you in the morning." And when the time is right for you to cross the brief divide, I'll rush across to greet you and we'll stand, side by side. I have so many things to show you, there is so much for you to see. Be patient, live your journey out...then come home to be with me. Author ~ Unknown
