Today is Memorial Day. A day that we remember and honor our veterans and those who went before us. Today we pause in rememberance. We take a moment out of our busy lives to consider the sacrifice that others have made for our freedom.
Freedom is one of the five basic needs that all people have. The freedoms we have in the United States were granted us by the sacrifices of others. We can freely worship, express ourselves, and be creative. These gifts cannot be taken lightly.
As I write these words today, I think about friends and family who have served as well as the many men and women whose names and faces I will never know. Thank you for your gift of sacrifice so that I might have the gift of freedom.
