Gulf War ashnbrome

Gulf War Syndrome



They pumped them full of drugs

In combination never used before

Then, that being done,

Sent them off to war.

Weapons of mass destruction

That were never ever found

But the rumour was the rumour so

They put troops on the ground.

With Victory achieved,

Stable regime overthrown,

From that sad venture the ISIS

Many folks ,of every walk of life, need nursing care
when i worked in nursing homes as a CNA and a nurse, the love i received from the old folks stays in my heart with no compare

When you sit and talk, and get to know the folks who what and whereMore »

Its IMPORTANT to be CARING
Its important to be caring
and with whatever you can, to others generously, sharing

When with what you do have, you just share
When another, shows appreciation, for your sharing act, its a feeling greater than any other in compare

But mostly, and a matter of factly
what ever we choose to do, good or bad, our GOD,, knows our every thought, move and heart intention, exactly
Its--so easy to keep all of your blessings for you and you alone
but if you dont show others you care, and with whatever you can generously, heartfully share, the good, great and grand feeling, ofMore »
