An Acknowledgement

Posted on May 29, 2017 by

If he were to be alive, G.K. Chesteron would be 143 years old today. In honor of his birthday and Memorial Day (in the US), I found the following quote:

“The true soldier fights not because he hates what is in front of him, but because he loves what is behind him.”

Chesterton is my answer to the question, If you could spend one hour sitting on a park bench and talking to someone, dead or alive, who would it be?

Living in Aiken, South Carolina, USA, I like to share what I am looking at, thinking about or listening to. I refer to this as the view out my window. Thanks for stopping by.

    Love the quote. I would choose Martin Luther King Jr. He had so much to offer this world and I think his wisdom is sorely needed.
