THIS IS OUR AMERICA!!!!!

We saw on television a couple weeks ago the horror of some people, the damage they can do to each other… In Virginia.

We were in disgust as our President did not comdemn this behavior.  With his words of both sides are at fault.. which is true.. but he should have followed it up with … AND THIS BEHAVIOR IS NOT ACCEPTABLE.. IT IS NOT WHO WE ARE..

But since then.. in the past week, we see once again…

OUR AMERICA… OUR AMERICA, is the people who you see, taking their boats up and down floated streets .. looking for people who are stranded.  People .. black, white or what ever.. carrying others to safety.. no matter what the color. Blacks carrying white children, while  in water up to their waist…...  Whites carrying black women, all to safety..

Electric companies, from Washington state, and many other states, heading to the South to help where every they can, to get electric back to those homes that did survive. 

Last night, HANDS IN HANDS, was on television.. from L.A. Ca. .. New York, Nashville…. Actors, singers, dancers, tv host.. you name them.. none of their names were used as they sang… or manned the phones for donations. When people called in to donate, they had no clue who they would be talking to.. Oprah, Cher, George Clooney, Jamie Fox or any of the many stars who were not only taking donations from the public, but also giving hundreds of thousand of their own money.. Companies calling.. (Apple donated 4 million AND matched their employees donations.. Foot ball players matching others.. with the Football Assoc. matching that..

All to help these people who have no homes, lost love ones, and have no possessions at all. Even to help the dogs and cats stranded…

THIS, LADIES AND GENTLEMEN..IS OUR AMERICA…

If only this was a feeling carried to each and everyone .. every day.. every month … every year..
