As Americans around the country take time to “celebrate” Memorial Day, it’s important to remember exactly what the holiday means and try to find the best way to honor the memories of those who inspired our country, and thus, inspired the world.
I’m one of those folks who actually doesn’t know anyone personally who died in a war, though, like all Americans, my life was profoundly affected by their sacrifice.
Let’s all take at least a few moments today to remember what the day is really about.
And to all of those currently serving our country, no matter where you are or what capacity, all I can say is “thank you”.
