Having seen the devastation of war first hand,
Eisenhower came both to despise war
and to see that "war settles nothing."

but never hate responded to with hate.

and to devastate the fair face of this beautiful world!
- Robert E. Lee

Comfort on difficult days,
Smiles when sadness intrudes,
Rainbows to follow the clouds,
Laughter to kiss your lips,
Sunsets to warm your heart,
Hugs when spirits sag,
Beauty for your eyes to see,
Friendships to brighten your being,
Faith so that you can believe,
Confidence for when you doubt,
Courage to know yourself,
Patience to accept the truth,
Love to complete your life.
