It's that time of barbecues and swimming, and let's not forget that bonus day off of school! Yes, Memorial Day is here again, and we get to relax and kick back with a book and a slice of watermelon.
But why don't we stop and think for a moment about why we have such a sweet deal.
Soldiers fought and fought for our country, so we could live our lives in comfort. Even today, there are soldiers serving our country, serving us. So take a break from the fun--just for a second--and think about not what you're doing, but why you're doing it.
So to all those soldiers who fought--and those who are still fighting--I raise my hand in a salute, and encourage all to do the same. I have nothing more to say but "Thank you".
Have a safe and relaxing Memorial Day weekend.

ReplyDeleteI totally agree with everything you said.
ReplyDeleteThank you to the ones who gave their lives or gave their time fighting for our country. We wouldn't be where we are today without you.
