The Train ... Thx Dr. H!

The train ... Thx Dr. H!  This is one of the most beautiful things ever on my blog!

This is beautiful...

At birth we boarded the train and met our parents, and we believe they will always travel on our side. However, at some station our parents will step down from the train, leaving us on this journey alone. As time goes by, other people will board the train; and they will be significant i.e. our siblings, friends, children, and even the love of your life. Many will step down and leave a permanent vacuum. Others will go so unnoticed that we don't realize they vacated their seats. This train ride will be full of joy, sorrow, fantasy, expectations, hellos, goodbyes, and farewells. Success consists of having a good relationship with all passengers requiring that we give the best of ourselves.

The mystery to everyone is: We do not know at which station we ourselves will step down. So, we must live in the best way, love, forgive, and offer the best of who we are. It is important to do this because when the time comes for us to step down and leave our seat empty we should leave behind beautiful memories for those who will continue to travel on the train of life.

I wish you a joyful journey on the train of life. Reap success and give lots of love. More importantly, thank God for the journey. Lastly, I thank you for being one of the passengers on my train.

This man owned and drove the same car for 82 years ... Thx Dr. H!

Subject: THIS MAN OWNED AND DROVE THE SAME CAR FOR 82 YEARS Mr.  Allen Swift:  Born:  1908 ˜ Died  2010     This  man owned & drove the same car for 82 YEARS. Can  you imagine even having the same car for 82  years?  Mr. Allen Swift ( Springfield ,  Massachusetts) received this 1928 Rolls-Royce Piccadilly-P1  Roadster from his father,  brand  new - as a graduation gift in 1928.  He drove it  up until his death last year ... at the age of  102!!! He was the oldest living owner of a car that  was purchased new.  Just thought you'd like to  see it. It was donated to a Springfield museum after  his death. It has 1,070,000 miles on it, still runs  like a Swiss watch, dead silent at any speed and is in  perfect cosmetic condition.  (82  years). That's approximately 13,048 miles per year (1087 per  month)... 1,070,000  that's miles not kilometres!!    That's  British engineering of a bygone era. I don't think they make  them like this anymore.

Church squirrels ... Thx again Dr. H!

CHURCH SQUIRRELS            I don't care who you are, this is funny! There were five houses of religion in a small town: The Presbyterian Church, The Baptist Church , The Methodist Church , The Catholic Church and The Jewish Synagogue.  Each church and Synagogue was overrun with pesky squirrels.  One day, the Presbyterian Church  called a meeting to decide what to do about the squirrels.  After much prayer and consideration they determined that the squirrels were predestined to be there and they shouldn't interfere with God's divine will. In The BAPTIST CHURCH the squirrels had taken up habitation in the baptistery. The deacons met and decided to put a cover on the baptistery and drown the squirrels in it. The squirrels escaped somehow and there were twice as many there the next week The Methodist Church got together and decided that they were not in a position to harm any of God's creation. So, they humanely trapped the Squirrels and set them free a few miles outside of town. Three days later, the squirrels were back. But -- The Catholic Church came up with the best and most effective solution. They baptized the squirrels and registered them as members of the church.  Now they only see them on Christmas, Ash Wednesday, Palm Sunday and Easter. Not much was heard about the  Jewish Synagogue, but they took one squirrel and had a short service with him called circumcision.  They haven't seen a squirrel on the property since. ************************************* Keep going.... For all who appreciate the outdoors ... the rarely photographed South Florida Squirrel.  Life is too short for drama and petty things, laugh a lot, love truly and forgive quickly.

We'll call them Entity A and Entity B. Entity A: Declares that its raison d'etre is to annihilate Entity B. Sends missiles to explode in the most populated parts of Entity B in order to kill as many civilians as possible. Uses families and individual civilians as human shields to protect its own leaders from attack. Tortures and kills domestic political opponents. Has no political or religious freedom and has no freedom of speech, press, or assembly, and no independent judiciary. Is a theocracy. Violently oppresses gays. Saturates its education and airwaves with a demonic hatred of Entity B. Rated a "6" by Freedom House in its 2013 report on freedom in the world. Seven is the worst possible rating. Entity A ranks 6 in freedom, 6 in civil liberties and 6 political rights. RECEIVE LIBERTY LOVING COLUMNISTS IN YOUR INBOX … FOR FREE! • Receive Dennis' and many, many more.

Has never targeted civilians in Entity A. In fact, it has sacrificed soldiers in order to avoid killing Entity A civilians. Domestic political opponents — including even supporters of Entity A — not only have freedom of assembly, press and expression; they have political parties with representatives in Entity B's parliament. Has freedom of the press, assembly, religion, and a completely independent judiciary. Allows gays full civil rights. Has innumerable human rights groups dedicated to the welfare of people belonging to Entity A. Has no education or broadcasts comparable to the daily hate in Entity A. Freedom House rating for 2014 is 1.5 in freedom ("1" is best possible); 2 in civil liberties; 1 in political liberties. So, then, with which entity does nearly every government in the world side? Entity A. And what is the primary concern of the United Nations, nearly all the world's media, and nearly all the world's intellectuals? That Entity B, while hundreds of missiles are launched at its most populated cities, not kill any of the civilians among whom Entity A's leaders hide. The moral gulf between Israel, our Entity B, and Hamas, our Entity A, is as clear and as great as the one that existed between the Allies and Nazi Germany. It is one of the few instances in today's world when the Nazi analogy is accurate. It is clear that while free and democratic countries such as those in Western Europe value the freedoms of speech, assembly, and press for themselves, the absence of these freedoms among Israel's enemies means nothing to the Europeans in morally assessing the Middle East conflict. The news media, too, have no moral focus. They are preoccupied with Gazans who have died, and with the disparity between the number of Gazans killed and the number of Israelis killed — as if that is morally dispositive. Imagine that during World War II, the Western press had converged on German hospitals and apartment buildings and repeatedly announced the huge disparity between German civilian deaths and British civilian deaths. More than 10 times the number of German civilians were killed as were British — but did that have anything at all to do with the morality of the British war against Germany? The big question, then, is why? Why is decent, free, democratic Israel not fully supported by decent countries against the genocidal Islamist regime of Gaza? Is there any other example in history of a free state and a police state at war in which the free state was deemed morally equivalent to the police state, or, even more implausibly, deemed the aggressor? Last week, a New York Times editorial put the equivalence this way: "an atmosphere in which each side dehumanizes the other." Here, then, are some reasons: 1. The West has lost its way. Europe gave up on its values after World War I. And the American left, which dominates the media, gave up on America's distinctive values after the Vietnam War. 2. Unlike during World War II, there is a United Nations today, and it is dominated by over 50 Islamic countries, their dozens of allies, and a Security Council on which sit Russia and China as permanent members. 3. The current American president is a product of the postwar leftist morality. Wherever the left is in power, Israel is unpopular at best and loathed at worst. Thus, Israel's best friend today is the conservative government of Canada. 4. The world's news media relentlessly show images of wounded and dead Gazans. Israel, on the other hand, though the target of mass-killing missiles, has thus far been able to avoid such casualties. 5. Israel is Jewish. If there are more valid reasons for why the world equates Israel and its morally primitive enemies — or actually deems Israel the villain — I have yet to hear them.
