Gratitude Campaign

The

Gratitude Campaign

Hello, this blog is all about The Gratitude Campaign,

and the special services which come with it.

It's to thank all the soldiers all around the world for what they do.

One person in particular who comes to mind is my neighbour's

son who's only 20 years of age, his name is Lloyd,

he's got a heart of gold and he is a Royal Marine

I have full admiration for the work he does for our country.

when I found out he was going to Iraq last August I

had to shake his hand to wish him good luck, I then

felt the tears fill my eyes, he was so young and I feared for him,

it was just like a member of my family going out to war.

Me and Lynn has known him since he was small, he's always

polite and has never a bad word about anyone. He lives in

Leicester and is a proud upright young man.

For now Lloyd, thank you from the bottom of my heart,

and God bless

Lloyd

His Mother wrote this about him, please read it to get to know him.

Last time when Lloyd came home he decided to go out clubbing

dressed as Batman, this is the sort of person he is...

Fun loving, loves a good laugh, and he's the life and soul of the

party, he likes living his life to the full, he's kind and loyal to all

he meets, especially his family and friends.

When Lloyd was born, he was a tiny 2lb 4oz, the doctors

nicknamed him Peugeot after the car, as the lion on it goes from

strength to strength...Just like Lloyd, he's gone from stength to

strength...He became the person he is today from sheer

determination and great effort...We all love him and feel so proud

of him always...It's wonderful when he comes home on leave,

he is a true credit to all of his family...Thank you Lloyd...

Leicester Images would also like to thank all the men and women

who do a special service for our country, such as The Police,

The fire brigade, The ambulance Team and all the other countless

heroes of our country, without their help what would our lives be

like now, so from me to all of these brave people, thank you!

TERI

(http://USMARINEMAMA.spaces.live.com/)

received this in an email

The "I" is not identified, but I did find an email address listing

scott@gratitudecampaign.org

So Perhaps "Scott" is the creator.

To whom ever the creator is I would like to say "Thank you " to you as well!

God Bless!

For the past several years as I've been traveling around the country,

I've been approaching soldiers in the airports and thanking them for

serving for us. On several occasions I have noticed that it felt a little awkward

for both of us. There are several reasons, some of which I am

even just now learning as I produce this film and talk to more soldiers.

But they have always appreciated being thanked, and I have always felt

better having expressed my gratitude.
I started to think that it would be nice if civilians had a gesture

or sign that they could use to say "thank you" quickly and easily without even

having to approach. I did some research and found the sign that we are now using.
Is this limited to the military? Not at all. If you look around

you I'm sure that you'll find lots of people who are serving their communities, from

local to global. If you appreciate their service, give them a sign. Say "thank you.

What a beautiful thing for us to do. We always take our services for granted and with

the threat of war on us all the time we should be thankful to our armed forces and

home services every day. We need them and we must show our gratitude. Love Nessa

Luke's Tributes

Dreamwalker

My thoughts are with all of your family...

Let me share this verse from Henry Scott Holland-- 1847-1918, In the hope it will bring some comfort.

"Death.. is nothing at all, I have only slipped away into the next room, I am I, and You are You.

Whatever we were to each other, that we still are. Call me by my old familiar name, speak to me in

the easy way which you always used. Put no difference in your tone, wear no forced air of

solemnity or sorrow.Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes together.

Let my name be ever the household word that is always was, let it be spoken without effort,

without the trace of a shadow on it.

Life means all that it ever meant. Life is the same as it ever was; there is unbroken continuity.

Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight?

I am waiting for you, for an interval,

Somewhere very near,

Just around the corner......

.... All is well "

God Bless Dreamwalker x

Miss Marple's Place

Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there; I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow,
I am the diamond glints on snow,
I am the sun on ripened grain,
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you awaken in the morning's hush
I am the swift uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circled flight.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there; I did not die.

THINKING OF YOU

MISS MARPLE

I didn't know Luke, but he must have been very special. It's hard to

come to grips with tragedy of this sort, but I do know there is a

purpose for everything under Heaven's eye. Maybe Luke was

just a little to special, so he spread his wings, and left. It's

always hard for those left behind, but just think. No more pain,

no more suffering, he's in a much better place. May you find

beauty and comfort from this great tragedy.

Four charged over teenager's murder

Four people - including a 14-year-old boy and 15-year-old girl - have been charged with the murder of teenager Bradley Whitfield, whose body was discovered on New Year's Day.

College student Bradley, 16, died at the scene after being attacked with what is thought to have been a piece of broken glass near his home in Leicester.

A post-mortem examination conducted at the city's Royal Infirmary established that he died as a result of a puncture wound to his neck.

Leicestershire Police said that four people - the two teenagers, a 31-year-old woman and a 34-year-old man - have been charged with murder and will appear at Leicester Magistrates'

Court on Friday. Bradley is thought to have been celebrating the New Year when he was attacked shortly after leaving a party at about 5.15am.

In a statement released on behalf of his family, his father Anthony Whitfield said: "Bradley was a loving son, brother, grandson and nephew. Everyone that knew him said what

a lovely young lad he was. "Bradley had such a bright future ahead of him and we cannot begin to believe what has happened. We feel that we have been left with such a hole in our hearts."

UPDATE - 8Jan - Four people appeared before Leicester magistrates on Friday charged with Bradley's murder. Darren Carr (34) and Nicola Faulds (31) both of Caldecote Road,

Braunstone, were remanded into custody.Two teenagers, a male and female, both 15, who cannot be named for legal reasons, were granted conditional bail.

The boy has gone to secure accommodation outside Leicestershire, and the girl to an undisclosed address.

Four people - including a 15-year-old boy and a 15-year-old girl - have appeared at Leicester magistrates' court charged

with the murder of teenager Bradley Whitfield on New Year's Day.

Darren Carr, 34, and his partner Nicola Faulds, 31, both of Braunstone, were remanded in custody accused of his murder.

The teenage co-accused, who cannot be named for legal reasons, were granted conditional bail.
