nd 03.12.13 Cancer Update: With this cancer thing, among the things I've periodically forgotten is that I'm a soldier in the midst of battle. I've unwittingly allowed myself to engage with, and potentially hurt non-combatants. I'm so sorry for exposing them to hurt.' Loving

***** nd 'Loving rightly, naturally, attacks needless suffering, pre-empting it when possible. The ultimate defeat of the Loving Spirit may be in confusing what's of Ultimate importance in this. It is NOT eliminating the suffering. It is in Practicing, and thereby Spreading Loving. How rarely do the practitioner, recipient, and observer get this right. How confused I've been most of my decades; along with my dad. Star Wars - Attack of the Clones shows this brilliantly; singularly well.' Loving

Act, Enough, Now, or these kids lose their teachers, meals... Future. Lives.
Start --
Megan Allen is a fifth-grade teacher in Tampa, Florida. At her elementary school, 90 percent of the students qualify for free or reduced lunch.
Many live in poverty, with unstable home lives -- some have parents in prison, others go hungry over the weekends. But at school, they're winning science fairs, challenging themselves, and eating two hot meals a day.
For Megan's 36 fifth graders, school is a safe place. The budget cuts known as the sequester could change that.
In the county where Megan teaches, 142 schools stand to lose $3 million in funding. The sequester could also slash as much as $2 million in federal funding for special education.
When those cuts kick in, Megan's students could lose teachers that help them every day -- for example, the folks who coach them through tricky arithmetic, or give those who are having reading trouble the special attention they need. The Head Start programs that got these students ready for kindergarten will be dramatically cut down. Their class sizes could go up, leaving less time for individual attention.
The sequester isn't a list of numbers made up to scare you. It's a very real thing that will negatively impact real people -- like Megan's 36 students and their families.
Congress needs to hear those stories. They need to know that their inaction has consequences -- that's the only way we'll put an end to these cuts.

MLK Jr said the same Truth, Fact, this way - "A person is not fit [equipped] to live until they know what they would be willing to die for."
Jesus said it this way - "Whoever would save their life will lose it; and whoever would lose their life for the sake of our neediest Family will Gain their Life." Paraphrase with liberties, of which He would approve.
