As we hustle
around to get ready for a busy weekend keep in your thoughts how we got to where
we are today and remember those many brave Americans who made it
possible.
Maybe take a
moment to share your thanks with a veteran, or a family who's suffered the
loss of a loved one in any war. We're losing over a thousand of our WW II
veterans every day. When you meet someone from that era, ask if they or family
members have served and thank them for their honored service to our country. If
they want to share some stories with you take the time to listen, you
may never have another chance. Stop and shake the hand of any active
service person in uniform. Tell them you appreciate them for their service.
Despite the ugly politics of today, our dedicated soldiers are bravely
protecting you and your family from terrorism, defending our rights and freedoms
and extending the opportunity for others to do the same.
President
Reagan's D-Day memorial speech:
Maybe go visit
your town's memorial or cemetery for vets for a brief time, take some flags
to leave behind. Tell your kids & grandkids the meaning of it
all.
Maybe before you
ride out with your friends and family, gather around and say thanks verbally,
maybe as a prayer, so all can remember. Our young folks today have a hard time
understanding these values because many schools do a poor job for whatever
reason. Share your thoughts and feelings.
Be proud. Give
thanks. Enjoy your freedom. Be safe...
