Memorial Day is just a couple of weeks away and with that I also have to think about what we are supposed to be remembering on that day. I know many of us will plan to travel that weekend or be at the beach, or at a park and enjoy the day. I am afraid that many of us do not really remember what that day stands for and why it so special that we are able to celebrate on that day.
There are many soldiers that have lost their lives so that you and I can be free everyday to enjoy our freedom as we know it here in the United States. With that said there are many U.S. soldiers who have also lost their lives in helping other countries as well.
We should never forget that Freedom comes with a price. And we should thank God that he has given us great men and women who are willing to stand up and put their lives in jeopardy to maintain this great country free!
So while you may be planning what to do, do not forget to tell your kids, and remind yourself why we celebrate memorial day.
God Bless the United States of America!
