S.S.S

                 A Choice: Poverty or Prosperity

"I hated poverty. Poverty is more of a choice than anything else, and I can change that (poverty). It depends upon how hard i want to work, and decided that I would change it."

                                       Ben Carson   

      This quote means that you can accomplish anything you want in life as long as you work hard for it. You have to have determination and never give up. You are going to have many obstacles in your way but an obstacle is there to prove how much you really want something. If you want it badly then you will overcome it. If you don't want it on the other hand, you will give up easily.

                     Veterans Day

What is Veterans Day? Veterans Day is a public holiday held on the anniversary of the end of World War 1 (November 11) to honor US veterans and victims of all wars.

What is the purpose of Veterans Day? In the USA, Veterans Day annually falls on November 11. This day is the anniversary of the signing of the armistice, which ended the World War I hostilities between the Allied nations and Germany in 1918. Veterans are thanked for their services to the United States on Veterans Day. Why is it important to show honor on Veterans Day?

When is it? November 11

What are few ways to show honor and respect on Veterans Day?

·         Say “thank you.” It’s a simple gesture, but a deeply meaningful one. If you see a veteran in uniform out in public, simply step up and thank that person for his or her service. Shake that person’s hand, look them in the eye and give a sincere “thank you.”

·         Visit a retirement home. Many veterans in retirement homes would be incredibly happy if people took a moment to stop in and spend some time with them as thanks for their service. Stop in at a retirement home near you, ask if there are any veterans around and personally thank them. Take the time to ask them about their service and genuinely listen to their stories.

This idea is particularly powerful because many people in retirement homes struggle with loneliness. A 15 minute visit not only shows veterans that you appreciate their service, but also helps them enjoy a few moments of genuine human warmth and companionship.

They should always be remembered because they fought for doing what was right to be in a better place and to have peace. In return we should honor and respect them for them risking their lives for us.
