Memorial Day is a time to honor those who have made the ultimate sacrifice in service to this nation. Over time, I've come to understand that part of honoring those gave all was to lead a good life; to live, love, laugh, appreciate, and respect honestly...or at least, as best as one may know how to do so. You want to honor the fallen?! Be good to each other! You don't have to "like" each other, but love and respect each other...and lead the best, most honest life that you know how to lead, continuing to learn and grow along the way. THAT is how you honor the sacrifice made by those who laid their lives down upon the altar of freedom. I wish you all a good and safe Memorial Day!
