Well, War has officially been underway for a few days now. It is sad that it had to come to this, but it is an occasional nessisity due to the world we currently live in.

The cost is always high, and really cannot be counted in monitary terms, for what are lives worth? And the sacrifices usually not noticed by the media...Familys broken, children growing up without a parrent...The mental and emotional strain on these young people...Yet if it not be for this, a greater loss and horror could transpire.

Tis a difficult decison to make, and our leaders in the USA have taken time to consider the "cost" against doin war now, or wait till it strikes here, and that associtated cost.

A peaceful resolution coulda saved alot, but that turned out not to be an option. War is never easy, nor should it be.

The current stance is to be supportive of the troops overseas, and the innocent citizens. Comfort and inform our children and family members, and to be supportive to the families who have someone serving in the war are goals that we can do to make a difference.

THoes of us here, going about our daily lives Can make a difference! Be of service to thoes who are stressed/worried/missing loved ones, and offering pratical help to them in their time of need.

I don't mean to sound like I'm preachin here. It's just, locally I have already heard of undue suffering, while some just go on as usuall like they don't even notice!!!(anyways it seems there has been no visitors here anyway, kinda like talkin to myself here).

May the losses be small, and our warriors return home to rejoin their familys soon!

Blessings,

FireMoonz
