In the wake of so much tragedy, hardship, and loss, i'd like to ask the members here what are you most thankful for in your own lives besides your family?  This is a question i feel needs to be asked due to the direction the world is going in today.

Hello everyone My name's James and i'm a new member here, & i wanted to create my blog speaking on the issue of so many people losing their homes in Georgia, and other counties and states. I really don't know what to say the real cause is of so many good people having to give up an investment that they've worked so hard to maintain but i will say that one day i do hope that the people that have lost their homes to foreclosure, will have the courage to buy another one.

I will never say that all citizens have lost their homes due to living outside of their means, because even Stevie Wonder can see that's a bold face lie! when i look at the economy today i have so much respect for those men and women that get up at the very early morning dawn just to make the day complete for those of us that get up alot later in the morning to go to work and to school. I am a firm believer that we as a people should begin to stick together and help each other and stop waiting on city government or the state government to come to our rescue.

I would love to see the young men and women helping the older generation more, and the older generation being more of an example for the young men and women, to show them that we can be a powerful influence in the neighborhoods we live in, if we work together for the same common goal.

To you men and women that i see everyday going to work in the restaurants, hotels, the police station, the elementary & high school, the banks, and most importantly you single and married mothers of the homes you take care of so well, also the city workers from the trash collector to the solicitor in traffic court. I THANK YOU! And last but not least the men that are real fathers to their children doing what a father should do, you deserve a thank you as well just for staying and helping to raise your children along with their mother.

Why do i thank you all? because i feel that you don't hear those words enough. Just know i appreciate you for all that you do, and even if i don't know you or ever meet you all, i still say thank you. I could name many more men and women that deserves a real and honest thank you but i only have so little time to do so.

In closing i hope that my blog inspires you all to think of what i've said here and make a difference in someone's life today.
