These thoughts are a continuation of my previous reflection pertaining to the sadness I felt within the discovery of history, and also the excitement. I take sometime to flesh the sadness to surface, and give importance to this, and also offer hope, so that within the discovery of history, there is still time to learn, conserve, create and re-create a present and a future.

It it possible? Within these thoughts I reflect upon the offering of religious greetings as a creation of interfaith unity and peace, and question if these create implications especially at the International / Global level where USA Service men and women often pay the ultimate sacrifice at the hands of those that we are offering greetings to. I further posit that peace and diplomacy is possible, often vested within the hands of leaderships, who may or may not possess the synchronous thought.
