Not All the Mighty Are Warriors

Reposted, but not re-edited:


How the mighty have fallen
and the weapons of war have perished.
2 Samuel 1 


Not all the mighty are warriors
Sometimes the most powerful thing a person can do, the most powerful weapon they have, is to bring a smile to someone else's face.

Not all the great feats are things that are done in the heat of battle
Sometimes the things that last the longest happen on a summer night when a few friends help each other get through some tough times.

Not everything that makes an impact for eternity is something that we can see.
Sometimes the things that last the longest are the way we cheered someone else, or boosted someone's confidence or maybe the most glorious thing we do is the way we welcome someone into our home.

Not all the mighty are warriors
Sometimes the mightiest people, those that make the most difference,
 are our friends

Independence (a work in progress)



















INDEPENDENCE
(A work in Progress)
 

Raise your rifles
Rattle your Sabres
And
Roll out your rebel yell

Let all around you know
That the people in this land are free
And free they shall remain
