this story touched my heart thank you for this post , gives hope when there is none.

I remember seeing this in the news years ago. Back then I didn't understand how politics is generally corrupt, and how politics might do this to America.

This is great encouragement for all of us who are going to have to fight to remain (or become) free. The world of the Bolsheviks and worse is looming on our horizon. The only way we survive is if we do not let "them" survive.

We need to work hard and aggressively so that we don't lose the knowledge of how to live, as we are forced apart (divide and conquer) by the dictatorial demands of a Government gone wild. The folks in the story are an example of freedom and survival. We will survive, and we will remain free. Let's work to survive with a better quality of life than they had.
