Live now under hard fought for freedom
The steel railroad wheels ly in a pile have seen the extent of their lives. As they rolled on the tracks they could feel the years in the past of wheels before them carried Civil War soldiers either to their victory or their death. Their cause would never be forgotten. The future of the human spirit relied on their contribution of those years. Folks after that would be inspired to do the right thing and that is freedom of every soul at any personal cost. Freedom isn't free to all. A cost has to be had by a few for the benefit of the many. A gift of freedom by a few will give and live on in many forever.
