My thoughts and feelings on this Sunday when many churches honor the living and dead veterans of our wars are conflicted, and I could not bring myself to attend church today.

I am sure those who have lost family members or friends in war would not wish others to go through the grief they experienced, so would support work for resolving conflict without resort to arms.Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08076057434281738924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3454886792905497494.post-31088089707589357032013-11-10T08:35:13.352+00:002013-11-10T08:35:13.352+00:00I'm really sorry that's what you've he...I'm really sorry that's what you've heard in my post.
