General Rambling: Honoring Their Sacrifice

This will be short and sweet and in no way come close to the honor they deserve.

Today is Memorial Day…and no matter your political views…it is a day to honor those who have given “the last full measure” of their lives for these United States of America and the many causes we have fought for throughout our history and our present.

The men and women we honor today…paid in full, the highest price any human can pay for their nation, their brothers, their sisters.

So while you fire up that barbecue, head to the parks and beaches…take a moment to reflect inwardly, and give a silent prayer to the fallen. Make today a special day and try and do something worthy and life changing for the better…so that their sacrifice, and the freedoms they gave everything for…will never be in vain.

A national moment of remembrance takes place at 3pm today. Please take the time to bow your heads to remember and thank them. And please share with your children, family, or friends a moment on just what a special thing it is…to lay down your life for another, or another’s freedoms.

Thanks!
