Dearest Children,

Don’t wait for the other person to do it and avoid responsibility. 36 People watched as a man killed a woman and didn’t even phone the police. When asked, they said they didn’t want to get involved. When you were born, children, you became involved. There is nothing you can do about that fact. If the dog needs feeding and you are close, even if it is someone else’s turn, you must not let the dog go hungry. “You ask for whom the bell tolls. It tolls for thee.”

Being involved and doing the Christian thing is not as some preachers say not an assurance of health, wealth, and happiness. A minister said, “religion is not an inoculation.” Being involved led to Jesus’ death and Martin Luther King’s and the Kennedy’s .

I am 81 years old and I have a blog http://audreykaminski.blogspot.com/ I grew up in Baltimore with many happy memories. There was a time when I thought I would never leave the city because of all it’s convenience. If you didn’t have a car you could ride a street car. Going down town was always a great pleasure. There were large Department stores, theaters and museums. Where I lived you could walk to the zoo, movie theater and a roller rink.
