This is an email I received from a TBP reader. It is actually a feel good story of the day. Doing good deeds, without the government or a religious institution involved. How is that possible? Sounds very deistic to me.
As a long time reader of your site I thought you might appreciate a story of people who have turned their lives around given the opportunity through the vision of a caring person. As opposed to only being recipients of our hand out government.
This is a reply that I received from a friend who is a self employed business owner.
I am proud and glad to be a fan and supporter of Brandon, Jordan and Edwin’s.
I wish I had the capacity to do more.
It means nothing to consider yourself a conservative, as I do, if you fail to actively encourage and support those who strive to raise themselves up to become a part of productive society. It is so easy to demean, to belittle and demonize.
It is very hard to reach beyond class and socioeconomic differences to promote a fair and inclusive society. Harder because it’s a one step at a time process, as opposed to the ease of condemning with a broad brush.
I think the term “hero” fits these guys perfectly.
If you google ” CNN heroes” today, you get this article. I know we are not usually fans of CNN but sometimes the do get a story right.
