On My Mind – The Lincoln Memorial – 6/3/2020

Lincoln Memorial

I’ve spent a lot of time in DC – I worked there for over 8 years – six of them for the Federal Government – and I love the city.  There are so many special places there – special for all of us as Americans – and this is one of my favorites – The Lincoln Memorial.

Here are just a few of the profoundly important and moving words engraved into the stone of the Memorial:

“With malice toward none; with charity for all…let us strive…to bind up the nation’s wounds…to do all which may achieve and cherish a just, and a lasting peace.”

And here’s a picture of the Lincoln Memorial two days ago:

I challenge anyone to tell me that they’re comfortable with this – with what this picture says – about our country today and about those currently in power whose words and decisions have led us to this.

That’s it – that’s the whole post.

Best Wishes,

Brian
