Senior citizens are constantly being criticized
for every conceivable deficiency of the
modern world, real or imaginary.
We know we take responsibility for
all we have done and do not blame others.



HOWEVER, upon reflection, we would
like to point out that it was NOT
the senior citizens who took:

The melody out of music,
The pride out of appearance,
The courtesy out of driving,
The romance out of love,
The commitment out of marriage,
The responsibility out of parenthood,
The togetherness out of the family,
The learning out of education,
The service out of patriotism,
The Golden Rule from rulers,
The nativity scene out of cities,
The civility out of behavior,
The refinement out of language,
The dedication out of employment,
The prudence out of spending,
The ambition out of achievement, or,
God out of government and school.

And we certainly are NOT the ones who
eliminated patience and tolerance from
personal relationships and
interactions with others!!



And, we do understand the meaning of patriotism,
and remember those who have fought
and died for our country.

Does anyone under the age of 50 know
the lyrics to the Star Spangled Banner?


Just look at the Seniors with tears in their
eyes and pride in their hearts as they stand
at attention, on Veterans Day and
our great country's birthday .




Now if I could only remember who sent this to me,
I wouldn't send it back to them,
but I would send it to many more!



Now- Have I already sent this to you???????

If so, I'll try not to do it again (for a while.)
