So many things have to come together for the nighttime routine to stay on course and keep to schedule. When we come together we all pull in the same direction, we get along, we feel good about ourselves and each other. Come together every day. Especially at the day's end. It's GOOD.

Stop Terrorism
Easier said than done, comes to mind immediately. So much focus in the last fifteen years in the "West" on Jihadists, extremists, Muslims, Wahhabism ~ but it's just not that simple.
