Jake was here,
You are right and you are wrong , both at the same time.
What must be realized is that the sweetest joy of living is to have set your heart upon that which is the most virtuous. Knowing that when you have breathed your last and you step through that final gate and into the presence of God, He will look upon you and say “well done!”. This despite the fact that we all have tried and failed in the pursuit of virtue. That is the reason why
no tyrant or trouble can ever really subdue an honorable man.
That is why we take up the fight even though it appears there is no hope of success. It is the pinnacle of freedom and it is the essence of the Founders’ Dream.
