Turn On Your Lights for America
As I was driving to work this morning I passed by an elementary
school and noticed that the flag had been lowered to half-mast in memory of
the students and their families in Littleton, Colorado. What a wonderful
gesture that simple act is. But, I thought to myself, what can I do to show
others that I too am deeply affected by this tragedy.
Turn on a light. Turn on my headlights. Turn on my porch light. But
how do I get this message to others? Use the Internet. I'm sending this
message to everyone on my email list and am asking that you do the same.
I am going to turn on my headlights on Friday morning on my way to
work, on Saturday as I run my errands and especially on Sunday as I go to my
place of worship. I'm also going to turn on my porch lights on Friday,
Saturday and Sunday night.
I'm going to turn on my lights for the families in Littleton to show them
that I care about them, that I feel the pain and hurt and heartache.
I'm going to turn on my lights for what is right about this country. I'm
going to turn on my lights against the darkness, the anger and the
prejudice. I hope you will join me. One light is not much but put them
together and we can light up the world.
Turn on your lights - show that you stand for what is right about
America. And as you turn on your headlights and porch lights this weekend;
turn on the light in your heart and soul. Show the world that this is not
what America is all about. With your light shining bright, along with
others, we can come together (if only for a brief moment) and combat the evil
that confronts us all.
Please pass this email on to everyone on your address list. Lets see
if we can get this message to everyone across this great country before
Friday morning and LET US USE the INTERNET for what it was intended - GOOD
