This is the first time that I’ve reposted an old article. I just thought that this one needed to be brought back to the top for Memorial Day. We, as a nation, have turned Memorial Day into beginning of summer national cookout day. I will be attending a chicken BBQ and parade tomorrow, but before I do I will take time to thank God for the people who have given their lives to protect mine. We should all take time to remember those people before we start cramming our faces with the food that is so readily available in our country. Remember, I am an American; I know what it feels like to over-eat.

I want to take a moment to just say thank you to all military personnel past and present. I think it’s awesome that we have the greatest fighting forces in the world right here in America. I can go to bed at night knowing that my family is safe from foreign threats. For the past few centuries brave men and women have given their lives to protect the freedoms I enjoy, and I don’t take those freedoms for granted. I can only imagine the pain and loss these men and women felt during their service to our country. I can only imagine the pain and loss that the families of the fallen men and women felt when they got the news that their loved ones would not be returning home. I truly thank you all for your service and sacrifice.
