A Holiday for Memories
May 26, 2008
Today is a day set aside to remember those who served in the armed services in order that our democracy could endure. Over the years, the data has been changed from the 31st of May to the last Monday in May. There are still some who will honor our veterans on both days. For me, the date is not as important as the fact that all the great advantages we have in the United States Have been and continue to be preserved because some have cared enough to put their lives on the line to protect them and us.
In the midst of family gatherings and Bar-B-Ques, pause a moment to give thanks. The national hour is 3 p.m wherever you are. Our daily lives may be hectic, but we have been given this day to stop for just a moment. I recommend that you not forget.
