Sorry it's been a while. My life has been crazy and i've been sick...
The Memorial Day holiday weekend was wonderful!!! There are so many family members that I salute to and will do so until the day that I day.
Some have past and some have retired and some are still serving but no matter what the case is, they all gave some and some gave all!!!
They will never be forgotten nor criticized as long as I am breathing by anyone.
Did you thank a military soldier this weekend???
We often times forget that our freedom isn't free and that there are still men, women, husbands, wives, brothers, sisters, sons, daughters, cousins, etc still over seas protecting our freedom at the cost of their own life.
We are lucky to live in a world that people are willing to stand up for people that they don't even know and probably never will meet.
So the next time you think that you're life sucks and that you wish you had everything that you don't because it would make you happy, think about the men and women who can't have/may never be able to get back.
Missed moments with their families. Their children being born. Family/Friend's birthdays. Babies first steps/words/facial expressions. Etc...
Just be thankful that you have a roof over your head and that you can see/talk to your friends whenever you want to. The US Soldiers may only get to talk to their family/friends once maybe twice a month if they're lucky. Some go years without ever seeing their family/friends.
Just be thankful and remember that it doesn't have to be Memorial Day for you to thank a soldier. Do it as you walk past them in the mall, sitting at that stop light, or wherever you may see one.
GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!
