on Lincoln's birthday.....
"With malice toward none; with charity for all; with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in; to bind up the nation's wounds...to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves, and with all nations." ~ Abraham Lincoln
I wonder what Lincoln would think of us now... lovely sight on his birthday

ReplyDeleteLincoln must be spinning in his grave ...
Lincoln's words are full of wisdom and I'm sure he would be very sadden to see what has become of his vision.
