In the United States, we honor and remember all those who have died in service to our country on Memorial Day. It's not about barbeque or fireworks or a day off from work and school. It's about not forgetting that every day we wake up to freedom because others--men and women from centuries ago and from yesterday--fought for that freedom...and gave their lives for us.
No card today, but please take a few moments to think about and appreciate those who gave their all in the cause of freedom, not just in the United States, but throughout the world. Freedom isn't free...anywhere.
I will not forget. Thank you. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Thanks for such a somber and moving tribute to honor and remember our fallen heroes today. The picture speaks a thousand words.
ReplyDelete...and thanks to your husband from all of us in blog land who appreciate both his service and yours too.
