Hello World I'm Glad To Meet You

Hello,

My middle name is Charles. I was named after a great man named Charles Stephens, my great grandfather. Now I never knew this man he died 3 years prior to my birth, but have learned a lot about him. I will use his name instead of my surname because of who he was and who I aspire to be.
Charles grew up in a small town called Tooele in a remote part of Utah during the depression. Now he wasn't a perfect man. He was not highly educated, worked as a school janitor, and didn't have a whole lot that our "society" would value. However, Charles had character.
Ever since the first two men shook hands in agreement character has been an unseen bond that holds our society together. When ever there has been troubled times in the world men of good character have come forward and stood for values. Their stalwart examples gave many hope when there was none to be found and pulled us through to times of prosperity.
Now, what is character? Well that's exactly what this blog is dedicated to. The search for and documentation of good men and women doing good things. I will be posting stories, comments, and observations that I find in the world around me. I hope through this venue to seek out the core values that this society was founded upon but have been buried by the advent of the "Me" generation. I am not blind to the realities that this blog won't be a maverick in the world of social thought. Nor am I expecting to change the course of thought that guides our country. My blog will simply be a way for those who share my views of the world to come together and give voice the the thoughts that fill our minds and beg to be spoken.
I invite all to comment on my weekly posts and share there feelings with all who will listen.

Charles
