I read an article, of the sad state of disrepair and decay of many historic monuments to past actions, Complained triumphs and glorious manifestations of the human spirit. In this case, the monuments were used for awards of Heroism, Bravery and sacrifice, who had to endure the concerned citizens of the United States of America, of those who had sworn, to maintain their security and the American way of life and to protect.
Memorial Day von Carina
Those, which have been greeted, were the awesome men and women, their time, often gave their service and their lives, to help, freedom, we enjoy, Freedoms, that we share with other, and the abundance, we have to keep. Therefore require our commitments, our watchful responsibility, to use these gifts wisely and for the common good. No doubt, every great nation can, with durable and proud history of struggle, Reform and endurance, claim, like to welcome heroes and heroines, to honor and appreciate.
As with any new generation, imagines himself of the ongoing saga of human existence, how should we best remember our past, appreciate our presence and effectively prepare for the unknown challenges of our uncertain future? How can we adequately, those, have made it possible for our unprecedented prosperity and security today whose victims, honor? The Japanese have a word for it, and it is “ongaeshi”, which means, repay our obligations of gratitude and reasonable compromise to stay in our duty, We always adhere to the roots of our success as a company, as a nation and as a collection of people, resulting from countless generations of human representation, here on earth, to remember.
To be truly grateful, is not simply a question of the survey monuments visible or impressive stone building, but to our steely heart to remain constantly vigilant and well prepared, to emulate these giants before us, and to make similar efforts on behalf of our current generation and for future generations. It is not a national thing. It's not an ego thing. It's a human thing, be estimated for each of us, to educate our children, and to lay the foundation of excellence for future generations.
Prior to the written history, prior to the unbelievable power of the electronic revolution permeates the every segment of our lives and activities, was the recorded story about the pictures on the walls, Songs of the troubadours, reminds amazingly accurate reports of our storytellers, discovered and preserved artifacts of cultural significance, and, of course, the spoken traditions in all kinds of legends, Stories, Music and art. The ability to replay these past skills and talents, there is still within our DNA, she waits for the right moment, to appeal again.
The debate will always rage, above, how accurate or how undeterred we must preserve the past, and to what extent our enhanced imagination, Advanced perspectives and large stores of new knowledge should be passed on the lessons of the past, enrich the present, and should be freely available and for future generations. There is no right answer, as no false conclusions can be drawn from these discussions and conversation accurately. The research should be a starting point for advanced knowledge and enhanced appreciation for the, what we bring.
Those, who were there to, To make history, are long gone, and no longer physically with us. Yet, they do not exist in any form by the priceless legacies above? Can we not trust us, faith in our integrity of purpose, our commitment to the judgment to be honest, and due care, decided to finish any work of importance, which we started, and we take the time, how long it takes also, to do as much as possible to get the job. Maybe we can in this way, really remember the story, both for what it actually was, and how it has evolved into the foundation, that this generation can honor and respect. It may also continue as “a work in progress” serve, to be improved, if we see the need, and create opportunities, to do so.
In writing this article on the eve of Memorial Day in the United States, this issue has a special meaning for me, as one of the lucky Americans, als der Vietnam Veterans Honor, and as the warrior for peace, that a target, I feel, should be the duty of any modern student of traditional martial arts, worldwide. However, we must not forget George Santayana quote, that “those, forget the past, are doomed, to repeat it” . We must remember the lessons of history, especially of our own. We must not miss, to honor the rights of countless other, the law may feel obliged to, to their respective stories to remember, in a similar manner, with satisfaction and pride.
We must not think only of the language, spoken by a free people, but also to maintain the skills, Skills and practice experience of a prepared citizen, and what we have acquired, easy to use in the service of our ideals, and for everything, what we hold near and dear. We must remember, the crucial and hard-won lessons of past stories, in the current story we individually and collectively create the present day, to incorporate the. It must be a living testimony, for all those, we admired over time, have trusted and honored, and those, with whom we interact daily, and the abundant prove the same timeless values, and they share unselfishly with us today.
