Are You Marching For Your Lives Today?

I march for my life everyday, but that is a different story. President Trump went to Florida and most of the Republican congress went home for the weekend. Meaning the youngsters from Florida and many other places get to run Washington today. I bet they do a much better job. More than187,000 children are survivors of gun violence from 193 schools since Columbine in 1999. That is why they are marching for their lives and Washington D.C. is not the only place where there is expected to be a half of million people. Hundreds if not thousands of protests are scheduled today from around the world to combat gun violence. So quit picking on the youth saying they do not do anything!

Marching is a good exercise. Standing up for a political conviction at a time when stance is needed for the betterment of the people is admirable. Remember, it takes only a good man not to do anything for evil to prevail. The lessons of history tells us "When the beating of your heart echoes the beating of the drums, there is a life about to start when tomorrow comes." from Les Miserables. March for your people and your country, It is an act of heroism.

As I am watching this huge March on Washington that is being covered on TV right now, I am amazed and so proud of these young people who came together united as one for the same cause. They have achieved something that many adults fail at doing... uniting in harmony, peace, and understanding for something they believe in. I applaud these young people today and I believe adults have a lot to learn from them.
