akbj wrote: Thank you for telling that story, it made me do some thinking about how many times I read about people on trial in the newspaper, & I have been guilty of assuming them guilty, just because they were charged. I should not do that. God does not do that. The poem quoted above is awesome, the one about "building a better you" I copied it down, & will try to read it every day.

They look like my brothers, friends, co-workers, neighbors and chuch members. I see no criminals, I see regular men. Thanks again-

Let's try to support one another with words of encouragement, a listening ear and to treat others the way we want to be treated. Here's a saying I just read:'Be kinder than necessary today,
for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.'
You never know how
you can bless someone else with just a smile, kind words, or a hug.
It's easy to do and will mean so much.

One of the most important lessons so many of us have to learn is NOT to judge others; another would be to treat others as we would like to be treated.
I wish you strength & courage.
