Prince William Spends Night Sleeping On The Streets
Commented Dec 25, 2009 at 16:13:55 in World
“What a fine young man Prince William is turning out to be. I am thankful for his testimony of life on the streets because that is a difficult delima for those who are homeless to be in.
The homeless form bonds that are strong and they look out for each another.
The most joy I felt was in taking supplies to this tight knit group and the amazement of how greatful they are for everything they get.
I would be choking back tears and feeling blessed and torn because of their condition knowing I am going home to a warm home where I am loved and reflecting on their stories of broken homes and relationships.
Remember these homeless individuals are our family, friends, neighbors and co-workers who have lost their way.
During this holiday season lets make a difference.”

“mikebarden Don't miss the point. I go into neigborhoods like this to find out how I can be a blessing.
When you have never tasted poverty you can never sympathize with those who have.
I find the poka-dots great because this man put his heart into it which makes it a Pacaso to me.
It is the greatness that we ascribe to others who have done the best they could with what they have that is the most pure.
May God bless all those who make a difference in their neiborhoods lending their talents to bless others.
Mike I am sad that you missed that.”

“We also need to physically go into these neighborhoods and meet the needs that are already there.
We can raise money or even contribute ourselves but until we have sit in the homes of these under privileged families and listened to their story we will miss the point that this economic down turn have affected all of us and those who once enjoyed middle class have fallen on hard times and so we have got to roll up our sleeves and go into these neighbor hoods and become hands on.
The most joy I have is helping others because it helps me to understand how abundantly blessed I am.
Since I have committed myself to my community it has changed my perspective and causes me to re-evaluate how I blog.
During this holiday season let us remember those who need our help and I guarantee you will be blessed knowing how humble these people are with what life has dealt them.
Lets open our heart wide so that we can make a big difference. in the lives of the under privileged and those who have fallen on hard times.”

“propitiousmoment I take the time to listen to what people have to say and if you follow my post I take time to post on a wide variety of topics because I want to be a great steward who reaches out to all and fight the good fight for rights and protection for all.
My comments centered arround many comments that were posted here and conversations that I have personally had with LGBT.
Don't think other people can not feel your pain and know the struggles you are having because we do.
We can also get a clearer picture as to who or what is hurting your cause and if we point it out is because it is hindering others from working together with you because of the rhetoric that chastise those who point out intolorant behavior that is followed by the hanging of the person who is considered to be the enemy of your cause.
I am by trial and error trying to do my part as a loving member of society that see every man and women as my brother and sister and the little things that seperate us must be over come.
Care and duty for our fellow man may correctly be considered as a sermon that will bring us together and not scatter us.
Speak out because you must but remember that you can win more with honey then with vinegar.
Peace and Love.”

One thing you have got to understand about African Americans is that we are a resilient people and we have already survived the worst life had to throw at us, so we will be better off as a people and a Community.
Remember that we are not the only Community that have been affected by the fall out from the financial crisis that The Bush Administration dropped in President Obama's lap.”

What we are focused on as African Americans is the Corporations that are in bed with the Republicans and ConservaDems as they twiddling their thumbs and whistle Dixie because it is in the Banking Institutions best intrest not to lend to small business and hold down the economy because a Republican run White House will hand them a legislative Gold Mine.

“Well I don't know about you but there are only so many times I have to be hit with a stick before I will begin to let someone feel my wrath, no matter how much I love them. That is where progressives are right now. And for what it's worth, sometimes a strong delivery is what it takes for some people to get the message. I didn't actually see anything particularly wrathful or any divisiveness or namecalling in lynn's post. It's not name calling to point out where someone is wrong, or to express disillusionment with someone who has sold you something that wasn't as advertised. I'm not even sure why you picked his/her post to make your little sermon about, certainly not nearly as strongly worded as some people on the left feel.”

“Banana Bubles You have Issues. Let me tell you why I am a Liberal Progressive in which I am most proud.
I am a Liberal because I see all men and women as God's children and take my stewardship of unconditional love and compassion for All People very seriously.
My duty is to the Poor, Widows, Orphans, En-Prisioned, Homeless, Abused and Forgotten.
My obligation is to my people who are of every race, creed or lot in life.
My honor is to be thoughtful and available for the service of mankind and discerning the needs of others and meet them in such a way that God has blessed me to bless others.
I am quite proud of my Liberal Progressive position because it allows me to check my rhetoric and avoid the herd instinct which is never right but to ponder my response far away from talking heads.
If that make me look foolish in your eyes then that is just fine with me because my conscience must always remain clear and my garments must always be free from the blood of others.
