I'm not into that...


I'm not into politics.

I'm not into to putting myself out there on heavy issues such as war, human rights and healthcare reform (even though I have strong feelings and care deeply about these things).

But I am into stopping and thanking those who have served and sacrificed to make my home a place where I have the privilege of deciding for myself what I am and what I am not into.

I take my freedom for granted and I shouldn't. So many people have paid the ultimate price for it and they deserve my gratitude and respect.

As one who has lived thru the Korean War and Vietnam, it is good to know that there are Boomers who appreciate their freedom. Like the bumper sticker says, Freedom Isn't Free, Thank a Vet.
