Well said Alamo-Girl! No matter what, we must keep moving forward.
For some odd reason, I really feel terrible about the deteriorating health of John Paul II, and what looks to be his immenent death. This is a day I haven't been looking forward to. That old dude was as tough as nails, yet as warm as a teddy bear. I can't imagine anyone replacing him that could even be half the man he was.
A new era is about to dawn with the death of John Paul II, and I don't think it's going to be all that wonderful. As a matter of fact, I see things becoming even more bizzare in the days and years to come. The LEFT, as a world force, has not rolled over and died because of people like John Paul II and Ronald Reagan. They seem to go into hibernation, get crazier, then come out spewing even more venmon than ever before.
So that's why I'm staying on with the Free Republic, NO MATTER WHAT. When it comes time to be amongst those who are some of the greatest people I know, there is no better place than the Free Republic.
