I look forward to reading your blogs. They are touching, funny, sometimes sad and very informative.

Auntie Edna spoke very fondly of Evelyn.

Thanks for being such a faithful reader of my blog.

Auntie Edna and my Mother always visited Evelyn when they came to Chicago.

Dear Cheryl -

You are one of the lucky ones who do not watch the news.

Regarding -

“Corinne, I had no idea there were people, other than the odd few, that actually believed it didn’t happen. I thought they were in the same category of souls that think we didn’t actually go to the moon.”

That is especially prevalant among the Irainian propoganda.

Maybe I should turn off my TV set too.

Hey Cheryl -

So nice to have you here. Welcome!

At that time, at the end of the war, there were still many young soldiers with great moral values.

Now I am saddened every single day at the news. Especially the gang raping of that 15 year old this week.

I blame the change on the violent movies and especially the videos these kids watch. I think it blurs the difference between reality and goodness and evil. It reduces humans to a game.

Life does not seem to have much meaning.

How could that crowd watch and do nothing?

They are not better than the Nazi mentality.

Corinne, I had no idea there were people, other than the odd few, that actually believed it didn't happen. I thought they were in the same category of souls that think we didn't actually go to the moon. In my first job when I had just turned 18, I got a job in the city (San Francisco) and I worked with two Jewish ladies that had both been in the Camps. They laughed about picking worms out of the bread before they could eat it. I remember feeling quietly privileged to know them. That was in 1962 and not so far away from that time in history. These stories are food for our Soul. Thanks for them. Sharon .-= Sharon Beck´s last blog ..Big Trike =-.

Wow! That gave me goosebumps and brought tears to my eyes. Love to hear stories of simple human kindness. Love to believe that when God has me notice something, that I step into it with courage as the American GI did. Unbelievable. Why would anyone even look twice at a pile of dead bodies? He looked intently and was rewarded for paying attention. He had the privilege of saving someone's life. Wonderful. .-= Cheryl from thatgirlisfunny´s last blog ..51 Must Know Habits for Staying Young – from the Inside Out =-.

Dear Jonathan -

You are so right. Kindness -
“Keeps the flow alive and raises our awareness.”

I so appreciate that you have become my “new best friend” on the Internet and it is my pleasure to support your very interesting and insightful articles.

But, I have to admit I really had a laugh at your last one. It is fun to interject some humor within a serious subject.

Readers – if you have not checked out Jonathan’s just go up and click on his name and it will come up. It is worth the visit.

Dear Dick -

I wonder how many people know that our forces used Dachau as a prison.

That story was painful to read.

No matter how bad the crime was for your prisoner, I agree it was insensitive to send a Jewish boy there – or anyone!
