August 20, 1967: Sargent Shriver said Unity is ‘built by all Americans’
August 20, 1967: Sargent Shriver said Unity is ‘built by all
Americans’

of wisdom
In a recent tweet – on June 22, 2015, Maria Shriver @mariashriver, noted that her father, (Westminster,
Carroll County, Md. native son) Sargent Shriver, said “My father said Unity is ‘built
by all Americans.’ Sadly, words still relevant @RSargentShriver: http://eepurl.com/bq43Ir”
On August 20, 1967, Mr. Shriver said: “"We have a
statue of liberty on the east coast given to us by a foreign community. But we
need a statue of unity built by all Americans, for all Americans -- in every
American community. Today, our nation is not united. This country is in trouble
because too many Americans prefer not to know each other. Not to care about
each other. […] Our country cannot go on like this."
This may be found on the Sargent
Shriver Peace Institute website, http://www.sargentshriver.org/speech-article/address-to-the-negro-shriners-convention.
According to the website, “Sargent Shriver did not shy away
from speaking about racism throughout his career. This address at the black
Shriner convention in August of 1967, given in the middle of a long, tumultuous
summer of rioting throughout the country, demonstrates his frankness and his
concern on the topic of racial inequality…”
He said this in an “Address to the Negro Shriners Convention,
CLEVELAND, OH.
He also said: “It is keeping America divided into ghettos--not
the city slums, but ghettos of the mind where we seal off parts of democracy
that don't suit us, where we box off our obligations to justice and shut out
our commitments to fairness. These ghettos of the mind are more damaging to
America than the ghettos of the city…”
Indeed, Sargent Shriver did not shy away from speaking about racism
throughout his career. Read the entire speech here: http://sargentshriver.org/speech-article/address-to-the-negro-shriners-convention

Burned Biscuits
This is a great message for all those that forget to love others unconditionally!!!!
Borrowed from Ann M. Prueter
The I was hoping to find the author. I did not; however, I liked the approach to the story I found here: http://www.focusonlinecommunities.com/blogs/Finding_Home/2011/11/08/burned-biscuits and I borrowed the pictures "Focus on the Family" used to illustrate the story...
+++++++++++++++
Burned Biscuits
When I was a kid, my mom liked to make breakfast food for dinner every now and then. And I remember one night in particular, when she had made breakfast after a long, hard day at work. On that evening so long ago, my mom placed a plate of eggs, sausage and extremely burned biscuits in front of my dad. I remember waiting to see if anyone noticed!
Yet all my dad did was reach for his biscuit, smile at my mom and ask me how my day was at school. I don't remember what I told him that night, but I do remember watching him smear butter and jelly on that ugly, burned biscuit. He ate every bite of that thing......never made a face nor uttered a word about it!
When I got up from the table that evening, I remember hearing my mom apologize to my dad for burning the biscuits. And I'll never forget what he said: "Honey, I love burned biscuits every now and then."
Later that night, I went to kiss Daddy good night, and I asked him if he really liked his biscuits burned. He wrapped me in his arms and said, "Your momma put in a hard day at work today, and she's real tired. And besides, a little burned biscuit never hurt anyone!"
As I've grown older, I've thought about that many times. Life is full of imperfect things and imperfect people. I'm not the best at hardly anything, and I forget birthdays and even anniversaries just like everyone else. But what I've learned over the years is that accepting each other's faults--and choosing to celebrate each other's differences--is one of the most important keys to creating a healthy, growing, and lasting relationship.
And that's my prayer for you today.....that you will learn to take the good, the bad, and the ugly parts of your life and lay them at the feet of God. Because in the end, He's the only One who will be able to give you a relationship where a burnt biscuit isn't a deal-breaker!

A.A.A.D.D.
AAADD
I got this earlier today in an e-mail. It made me laugh. I could relate.
Hat Tip: Karen Scott and Mrs. Owl
KNOW THE SYMPTOMS.....PLEASE READ!
Thank goodness there's a name for this disorder.
Somehow I feel better, even though I have it!!
Recently, I was diagnosed with A.A.A.D.D. -
Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder.
This is how it manifests:
I decide to water my garden.
As I turn on the hose in the driveway,
I look over at my car and decide it needs washing.
As I start toward the garage,
I notice mail on the porch table that
I brought up from the mail box earlier.
I decide to go through the mail before I wash the car.
I lay my car keys on the table,
Put the junk mail in the garbage can under the table,
And notice that the can is full.
So, I decide to put the bills back
On the table and take out the garbage first.
But then I think,
Since I'm going to be near the mailbox
When I take out the garbage anyway,
I may as well pay the bills first.
I take my check book off the table,
And see that there is only one check left.
My extra checks are in my desk in the study,
So I go inside the house to my desk where
I find the can of Pepsi I'd been drinking
I'm going to look for my checks,
But first I need to push the Pepsi aside
So that I don't accidentally knock it over.
The Pepsi is getting warm,
And I decide to put it in the refrigerator to keep it cold.
As I head toward the kitchen with the Pepsi,
A vase of flowers on the counter
Catches my eye--they need water.
I put the Pepsi on the counter and
Discover my reading glasses that
I've been searching for all morning.
I decide I better put them back on my desk,
But first I'm going to water the flowers.
I set the glasses back down on the counter,
Fill a container with water and suddenly spot the TV remote.
Someone left it on the kitchen table.
I realize that tonight when we go to watch TV,
I'll be looking for the remote,
But I won't remember that it's on the kitchen table,
So I decide to put it back in the den where it belongs,
But first I'll water the flowers.
I pour some water in the flowers,
But quite a bit of it spills on the floor.
So, I set the remote back on the table,
Get some towels and wipe up the spill.
Then, I head down the hall trying to
Remember what I was planning to do.
At the end of the day:
The car isn't washed
The bills aren't paid
There is a warm can of Pepsi sitting on the counter
The flowers don't have enough water,
There is still only 1 check in my check book,
I can't find the remote,
I can't find my glasses,
And I don't remember what I did with the car keys.
Then, when I try to figure out why nothing got done today,
I'm really baffled because I know I was busy all damn day,
And I'm really tired.
I realize this is a serious problem,
And I'll try to get some help for it,
But first I'll check my e-mail...
Do me a favor.
Forward this message to everyone you know,
Because I don't remember who the hell I've sent it to.
Don't laugh -- if this isn't you yet, your day is coming!

I got this earlier today in an e-mail. It made me laugh. I could relate.

KNOW THE SYMPTOMS.....PLEASE READ!
Thank goodness there's a name for this disorder.
Somehow I feel better, even though I have it!!
Recently, I was diagnosed with A.A.A.D.D. -
Age Activated Attention Deficit Disorder.
This is how it manifests:
I decide to water my garden.
As I turn on the hose in the driveway,
I look over at my car and decide it needs washing.
As I start toward the garage,
I notice mail on the porch table that
I brought up from the mail box earlier.
I decide to go through the mail before I wash the car.
I lay my car keys on the table,
Put the junk mail in the garbage can under the table,
And notice that the can is full.
So, I decide to put the bills back
On the table and take out the garbage first.
But then I think,
Since I'm going to be near the mailbox
When I take out the garbage anyway,
I may as well pay the bills first.
I take my check book off the table,
And see that there is only one check left.
My extra checks are in my desk in the study,
So I go inside the house to my desk where
I find the can of Pepsi I'd been drinking
I'm going to look for my checks,
But first I need to push the Pepsi aside
So that I don't accidentally knock it over.
The Pepsi is getting warm,
And I decide to put it in the refrigerator to keep it cold.
As I head toward the kitchen with the Pepsi,
A vase of flowers on the counter
Catches my eye--they need water.
I put the Pepsi on the counter and
Discover my reading glasses that
I've been searching for all morning.
I decide I better put them back on my desk,
But first I'm going to water the flowers.
I set the glasses back down on the counter,
Fill a container with water and suddenly spot the TV remote.
Someone left it on the kitchen table.
I realize that tonight when we go to watch TV,
I'll be looking for the remote,
But I won't remember that it's on the kitchen table,
So I decide to put it back in the den where it belongs,
But first I'll water the flowers.
I pour some water in the flowers,
But quite a bit of it spills on the floor.
So, I set the remote back on the table,
Get some towels and wipe up the spill.
Then, I head down the hall trying to
Remember what I was planning to do.
