Thank a veteran. You never know how much it will mean to them

A young man thanks veteran and friend John Moorhead year after year on veterans day for his service and the service of a old friend, “Satch”, who died in World War II due to a land mine.  John has said that though this may be their job they still enjoy being thanked for their service, for they did pay a price of some kind.

On veterans day every year Joshua calls John Moorhead and thanks him for his and his friend “Satch” for their service.  Joshua met John while he was in college at a clinic in Hattiesburg, Mississippi where they both ran errands and pushed wheelchairs.  John and Satch fought in World War II, where Satch tragically stepping on a land mine leaving not even a body that could be buried.  John though not as seriously damaged as Satch, acquired post traumatic stress disorder during his fighting over seas.

I believe that though this mans life is filled with sad experiences it is good for it to be shared to allow people to appreciate the deeds of these brave men.  Fore without these men we might not have our freedom today and the world could look much different.  John and Satch were brave men who deserved to be honored for there time in the service, but they are not the only ones.  We should thank our veterans greatly for the sacrifices and time spent serving us, the people of the United States.  On this note I believe what Joshua is doing is a worthy dead, honoring these fine men.

This could affect the world be allowing our veterans to know that we appreciate there time in the service.  This type of story helps to remind us to thank our veterans and remind us of their sacrifices.  Without these types of stories it may be possible for some to forget these great men and women.  I would also hope that this would encourage more people to enter the service of our great nation.  This is how it could affect the world for the better.

When Recess is Micromanaged

The freedom of recess, a time for creative powers and rest from the thinking to recharge, has been infringed upon by over 900 school working with the play works company.

By: http://www.foxnews.com/us/2015/10/30/when-recess-is-micromanage/

Over 900 schools in 23 cities has had the great power of recess removed from their school.  This is due to a new company called Playworks which has convinced schools to spend as much as $30,000 to the company to perform the teachers jobs, overseeing recess.  Furthermore, this control of recess is limiting the students creativity and is attempting to reprograms the students of America.

I believe this is horrible limitation of  the development of creativity and business sense in our students.  Recess is a time for creativity, curiosity,  and social interaction, not mindless control allowing no time for thinking.  They are attempting to reprogram America by targeting our youngest generation, removing disappointment and the truth of real life from school.  To allow them to crash and burn as they get older and develop throwing them behind in life’s race.  This is why it is terrible that American is allowing this to happen.

This shall affect the world in a drastic way as America’s people are reprogramed without negativity.  To be given no choice and to only be allowed to say words that are not offensive to any group.  No conflict and no upset feelings, only a blankness among people.  Currently America is a place of power that assist many nations, but may soon become a place of little power.  That is why we must fight back so that we are allowed to remain creative and free.
