Keep calm and carry on.

                                                                     Keep Calm And Carry On

          I don't know if you've seen the poster with this slogan on it. It's origins are in World War II England. The English government printed a poster with this slogan on it. The poster has a red background with a white crown representing the government, and then the slogan Keep Calm And Carry On. This poster was never circulated or used, and the only way we know about it today is because someone unearthed it in a dusty old antique shop. Most of these posters were destroyed after the war, but a few survived in an old cardboard box. It turns out that the British government printed these posters as a way to comfort the British people if disaster struck and the Germans were successful in invading England. Can you imagine how horrible life would have been for the civilian population if that turn of events had occurred.

         I was thinking about what I wanted to write about today, and I came to the conclusion that I wanted to talk to all  the millions of Americans out there that are still unemployed. All those who are constantly looking for a job but nothing is available. Day after day, nothing is working out. I want to say that I stand with you, be strong, It WILL work out, we will all be gainfully employed, eventually. We will not let this bad time in our lives defeat us, because we know in our hearts that the Good times will roll again. We are strong, we will work ourselves out of this great recession. More of us will be self employed, for we know that to truly have job security we will have to work for ourselves.

         Finally, to all of us who are struggling to stay afloat, or who are sinking, I say live as simply as you can, conserve your resources, love your families and the people who are dear to you,  remember that any physical thing can be replaced, and above all Keep Calm And Carry On until the tide swings back in our favor.
