Please share this with everyone you can.
There are more people in need this year than ever before since the Great Depression and the so-called safety is pretty thin and contains lots of holes for people to fall through. Please dig a little deeper and perhaps skip some of the excessive activities and gifts this year and donate the savings instead. Sometimes we get side tracked in the commercialism and forget the true meaning of Christmas… of the season?!? Become part of the army of patriots and good neighbors which will be the real answer to saving America.
Beginning December 1st (tomorrow), AskMarion will start their own version of ‘the War on… The War on Christmas’, Hanukah and American traditions and religion series. Joins them or us here, at the Daily Thought Pad where it will be reposted, daily throughout the month of December.
God Bless America, Happy Hanukah and Merry Christmas!
