In the month of May at the end there's a holiday known as Memorial Day. It is a day set aside to give praise and honor to all who served this country known as America. It is a day that family and friends have a barbeque of hamburgers and hot dogs, potato salad, and some form of dessert and some kind of beverage depending on the wants of those that tend to want iced tea, beer or some other form of drink. Just remember this saying while remembering on this day. "Lest We Forget."
Memories of those who served
elaborating on what they have done
marking
opportunities that allow us to
remember the
individuals that gave their
allegiance legally and
lovingly to this country on a
daily
allotment all for
you.

Mark Graham
I am a person who really likes to read and write and to share what I learned with all my education. My page will mainly be book reviews and critiques of old and new books that I have read and will read. There will also be other bits, too.

McGuffey's Eclectic Readers
My new writing project is to write and share stories in Gregg shorthand. In these first short pieces I am a little rusty since I learned this skill in my Junior year in high school and I have been graduated for 41 years. Just remember this first 'lesson' and subsequent lessons are from McGuffey's primer reader and really not much to read. I am continuing to practice and review my shorthand so a few symbols will be slightly off kilter. Please comment on this and others that I am going to write and share.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."
