Being is the essence out of which all things evolve. This blog is an ongoing conversation of being in various facets and areas of life, including the personal and the professional from which relationships of all kinds are formed and teams built in all communities, virtual or real, at home, at work, in politics and at play.

Being in Remembrance
May God bless our troops, their families, and loved ones.
May we always remember those who sacrificed their lives for ours.

Judith,
What a terrific clip and a reminder of the exceptional and distinguished service our African American airman, soldiers, sailors, and Marines have provided from our earliest armed conflicts to the present!
General James and General Powell are two folks I admire a great deal and have learned a many a lesson in leadership from!
Often Judith - I cannot speak to American experience - those who took up the course of conscientious objection, with enormous emotional and psychological cost to themselves, were the greater heroes. I acknowledge that most soldiers suffer from their battlefield experiences.
Wmmbb - I admire Muhammad Ali and the time this hero served in jail for his beliefs. But this does not take away from the admiration of those, including my father, who served and along with this service had horrendous memories that they took to the grave with them. I am not for war but war happens and soldiers die. For those who live through the experience and have died, I honor these.

Beautiful words indeed Judith! Thanks!
General James and General Powell are indeed admiral. Happy to share the clip, Dave.
