Another quote from Teddy Roosevelt speaks for itself, and means more today than even during his time:
"The things that will destroy America are prosperity-at-any-price, safety-first instead of duty-first, the love of soft living, and the get-rich-quick theory of life."
Few of us will serve in the military, but there are plenty of ways to serve our country. I spent a couple of hours today helping to split wood for the Timber Pointe (Easter Seals) camp ground. That wood will fuel fires for all those who use the camp for the next several months, including the severely disabled children who look forward to the comfort of the heated cabin as part of their few opportunities to get outside the home and enjoy a taste of an active life.
