This Day in History: November 22, 1963
"The cost of freedom is always high, but Americans have always paid it. And one path we shall never choose, and that is the path of surrender,
or submission." ~John F. Kennedy
John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) 35th President of the United States en.wikipedia.org |
Embrace the Past. . .
November 22, 2013 encompasses a day filled with its share of sadness for America. As we embrace the past, one of the most shocking events in our nation's history occurred on his day in 1963.
But, that speech was never to be given. . .
"His assassination on November 22, 1963, in Dallas, Texas, sent shockwaves around the world and turned the all-too-human Kennedy into a larger-than-life heroic figure. To this day, historians continue to rank him among the best-loved presidents in American history." [Source: http://www.history.com/topics/john-f-kennedy]
Three Shots Fired
Assassination was not new to America
but definitely unforeseen and astonishing.
What was intended to be a push for
reelection
ended in a cataclysm that led the American nation
in a totally new direction.
ended in a cataclysm that led the American nation
in a totally new direction.
Overran the streets, standing blade to blade
Waiting for even
a glimpse
Then, shots rang out in Dealey Plaza!
From whence did
they come?
The Texas Book
Depository?
This tragic event of ’63
Took the life of
a young president
Leaving an
undying memory
Or the lone
gunman accused?
What major
discrepancies
Those of us who lived that era
Still remember the dire words that aired
From CBS News’
Walter Cronkite
Engulfed in numbing disbelief
Eyes filled with
tears, limbs became numb
A nation’s people cried in shock
What happened next became history
John F. Kennedy was dead
Now it’s been fifty years
With much truth
still left unsaid
“Change is the law of life.
“Change is the law of life.
And those who look only to the past or the present
are
certain to miss the future.”
—John
F. Kennedy

Remember the words of President John F. Kennedy:
Empower the Present. . .
“My fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country.”
―John F. Kennedy
Enrich the Future. . .
"Let us not seek the Republican answer or the Democratic answer, but the right answer. Let us not seek to fix the blame for the past. Let us accept our own responsibility for the future."
―John F. Kennedy
