At one time I was considered as a modern fire-eater. I had a voice for oratory and was not afraid to use it. I don't know for sure what happened to that voice, perhaps it was my daughter's cancer, my personal demons, or just trying to provide for my family, but something silenced that voice. As I get older I find myself looking back and regretting a few things. I have allowed my children to become corrupted by a liberal education system. I have sat back and watched as former compatriots fell by the wayside. I have seen the older generation of fire eaters pass on or retire with no one to fill their shoes. MY VOICE WILL BE SILENT NO MORE. I will begin reeducating my children, I will offer my hand up to fallen compatriots, I will fill those shoes. I will no longer stand by in the shadows, I will be out front waving my flag, beating my drums. I will not allow my cause to die. DEO VINDICE
