Forgotten? Unknown? Dismissed.

Just received an article about Labor Day. One referred to Labor Day as the Unknown Holiday and the other referred to it as the Forgotten Holiday. Got me thinking...

There are so many things that are forgotten (including Labor Day), but worse, these holidays,along with a vast list of events, values, ideologies, are merely ignored as being insignificant in a world ruled by egoism and narcissism. Regard for the past and those that have gone before, the lessons of history, are (no pun intended) things of the past. Respect is also an historical word. It is gone.

Gone forever? Today my answer is yes. I have hope for tomorrow on that one.......
