A story of Memorial Day from 1920s... At first it was only done local. One such occurrence in the 1220’s was that several of the Union veterans had been celebrating a memorial day - yet there were former Confer-ate Veterians in the area, therefore the unions vets went out and and invited the all former Confederate vets and so it became a national event!
Decoration Day as it was originally called by the Ladies of Dixie; and then was copied by the rest of the nation...

Perfect is overused and now exist as another word for many of the anticipated assumptions in life. Today there are so-called; perfect storms, perfect plays, perfect shots, perfect games, or many things made or assembled. A great deal of time is spent seeking total perfection.

Jesus didn’t merely give to the poor, He joined them.
This is what led Claiborne to found The Simple Way: A tension between people maintaining their own comfortable social status while therapeutically giving to the poor, and the life and teachings of Christ. So Claiborne did just that, he joined the poor. He lived among them. He loved them and was loved by them.

Last month, Jiayang Fan wrote for The New Yorker about the killing of eight people, including six women of Asian descent, by a white gunman in Atlanta. The shootings were part of a rise in attacks on Asian-Americans across the country and seemed to embody a terrible period in which hate crimes and other acts of racism have proliferated.
