"Today we have learned in the agony of war that great power involves great responsibility. Today we can no more escape the consequences....." A letter written by Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1945.


I am not a person without sin, I realize this, but I cannot let a person walk away that has done an injustice, or has broken the rules. I find it to be my biggest flaw, but my greatest strength. I feel like if one person gets away with an injustice, then others might follow. Things happen in life, and I find that if you dwell on the past, you will be stuck there forever, and the next time you look up, everyone and everything you thought you cared about is gone. I am ashamed that I feel vindicated, as people I see that dwell in the past do seem to move backwards, it just makes me laugh. They act as if they have the worst problems in the world, and can't realize people were just trying to help until they pushed them all away. Now, she is all alone. I think of her often, but she knows how to contact me, to apologize, to move forward, and until then, she is just a fleeting thought. I will not dwell.

To dwell is to create havoc, to prove your own weakness, and to bring a downfall to yourself over and over again. I laugh, because of the irony. A great man once tried to rule the world alone, and break the laws, and ended up destroying his country and sending it into poverty and strife. As the world moved on, the nation sat, dwelling, until another came forward and tried again. He fail as well, and a great speaker wrote a letter, and died the day after, a speech that he never did speak at the Jefferson Day Dinner.

"The only limit to our realization of tomorrow will be our doubts of today. Let us move forward with strong and active faith."
