Taking Chance

If I am going to rail against all those on the planet that believe they are the only ones here, or at least the only ones that matter, I have to be honest about myself as well.

I have seen Taking Chance twice now while living out of hotel in Baltimore, and if you haven't seen it it is well worth watching, if not a must see.  What this movie makes you realize is just how much our military men and women have done for us, and just how much respect there is among the military and for the military.

This is what Taking Chance made me realize about myself, I truly have not done enough, if anything, truly meaningful in my lifetime.  I don't know how many people have, but when you look at people that have made the ultimate sacrifice in war, in defending our country, in protecting our cities, running into burning buildings and saving lives, I have to ask myself what I have done that truly matters, and what could I do at this point to change that?

Neither answer is good enough.
