Hi, I am 18 years old. You may ask what am I a surviver of. I am a surviver of abortion.

For sometime, I have heard the word abortion in everyones mouth. And this make me very sad. When I heard this word for the first time, I asked my mom what it meant. She looked at me with saddened eyes and told me in a way I would understand, that it was a way to make a baby go away and never come back. I was very sad by her words.

A Parents Cruelty

Eluana Englaro, was an Italian girl who was in a coma most of her life. Doctors say she was mentally okay and they hoped she would wake up soon

Obama's first mistake

I always thought Obama was a very nice and admirable person. But every person has his flaws.
It's been two day since he officially took office. And now, he has given liberty to companies to give money for abortions. Which was prohibited.

What happened? Why is such a good man, with two daughters, who always talks about family and moral, in favor of abortion?

First of all, I don't understand why people ARE in FAVOR of abortion. They are alive aren't they? So WHY are they alive? Because their par… Continue

This should be a lesson to us both on many fronts. First of all, count to ten before responding and second - just don't discuss religion in a public forum.

At 6:05pm on December 27, 2008, Gena A. Etheridge-Seltzer said…: Hi Graves! Thx for stopping by earlier; sorry I missed you in The Box. Yes, we had a wonderful Christmas, and I hope you did as well. We did not exchange gifts on any sides of the families this year. We simply enjoyed time with family and friends (and, of course good food). ;-)

It was fun to share your "War Zone" story w/one side of the family on Christmas Eve. Things got so busy Christmas Day, that I forgot to share with the other side of the family. I will make sure they get a copy soon. Thx for letting us share an extra smile and a few more laughs off of your delightful poem this holiday season.
