Take a Stand

Does it not give you a sense of joy and admiration when you witness someone genuinely standing up for something very honourable that they deeply care about?
Friday afternoon at the Renfrew Fair, a young man, wounded ex soldier and a loyal supporter of his candidate he was representing; left his display booth to console a fellow wounded warrior with no fanfare and no display of tribal colours.

The intoxicated wounded warrior was without a doubt depressed, showing his many battle scars to anyone who would pay attention. He could not understand why his situation and why the lack of support.
Not only did the sentry spend some precious time with the ex warrior, he also made sure the fellow was getting home safely.
This recount of events was not a staged publicity stunt.
Just prior to his call to action he explained to me his candidate's platform; better care and benefits for veterans, improved highways for our area, Internet for the rural areas.
Despite my possible political and philosophical differences, I am impressed by this gentle man's caring attitude and actions.
Occupying a booth beside my new friend's station were more individuals taking a stand, again with no fanfare or in your face showing off attitudes. They are soldiers of a different kind; giving a voice for the unborn.
As a country we need to acknowledge, protect and provide for our soldiers before we endeavour to bring others into our country. As a country please acknowledge, protect and provide for the unborn before and after birth. God forgive us if we don’t.
I am not endorsing any politician here only the unselfish acts of genuine caring and the individuals partaking in them.
