As we go about our day today, enjoying the day off, playing with family and friends, I hope we will all take a moment and think about all those brave men and women who sacrificed their lives to bring us the freedoms we are enjoying today.
I feel truly blessed to be able to exercise my freedoms of religion and speech, and to have the right to vote. And I am proud to be a citizen of a nation who fights for the rights and freedoms not only of their own country, but for others.
I am proud to be a daughter, granddaughter, great-granddaughter (and so on) of men who served in the military.
Thank you to all who have served and who are currently serving, for preserving our freedoms.

AMEN!! We are so lucky, but we didn't gain all our freedoms without the price that so many have paid. I think if everyone understood this principle better everyone would support the troops with all their hearts! Thanks for the post.
Thanks for the post, I wanted to post on veterans day but never got around to posting. I agree, we need to remember why we have these special days. Bless the USA.
