I think I've got it. All those brilliant intellectuals in Washington, and those wiser still on Wall Street, have missed "the answer" - and it involves zero socialism, zero new taxes, and massive economic stimulus.
Our military men and women make incredible sacrifices of time and
life, and put themselves in harm’s way, not just to protect our national
freedom, but to protect the freedom of other nations as well.
Every time I reflect on that, I’m amazed at how strong,
brave and honorable our military people are – and I always wish I could be of
more help to them.
I recently came across Soldiers’ Angels, an organization
that can pair you with a soldier to encourage personally.They verify your identity and ask for a
significant commitment (of letters and care packages to be sent) – then give
you the address of an armed services member in need of encouragement.
I just “adopted” a Marine who is serving in Iraq and sent
off a box of goodies to him.It’s a very
small way of saying “thank you” to people who deserve so much more. Check it out at: www.soldiersangels.org.
The post office prints special boxes for military shipping with a discount
priority flat rate (10.95).Letters require a normal first-class
stamp.
