December 16, 2012 prompt for "30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUS" by Humming Bird What does the word victory mean to you? V is for Victory, those are word from a song I heard and sang in my youth. I can't remember where I heard the song or where I sang it; those four words are all I remember from the song. What does the word victory mean to me? For me victory is surviving another day in this extremely dangerous world. I don't remember the world being this dangerous when I was a child. Perhaps it was and I just didn't notice it, but I people living today are living in a more dangerous world. For me victory is surviving another day and giving thanks for that survival. For me victory is saying a prayer of protection and going out into the city; knowing that I may not return to my home because some is using a cell phone while driving. Since I have to go out into the world and do business or associate with other people, I can't worry about what may happen; therefore, I have to say a prayer of protection and put the day in God's hands. For me this is victory. |
