Stop.....Remember....Memorial Day

[AOD_MHare]

Today is Monday May 27th. Today is Memorial day. A day we STOP for just a few minutes of our lives, or longer if you wish, and we reflect on the U.S soldiers in all wars this country has been involved in who fallen and made the ultimate sacrifice. A sacrifice they made for YOU and ME and their families. And people they've never met nor spoken to so that all of us could have the freedom we have today.
Free to drive anywhere we want without question. Free to vote for who we want and to practice whatever religious belief you see fit. Free to say what we want and do want we want. Free to live where ever we choose. They made that sacrifice without question. And they would do it again just so we can be free. Freeedom is NOT free , there is price to be paid and they paid that price and everyday people go about their business and don't even think about it. But today...We stop...And we think about it...And we honor them...And we thank them in our own way. I cannot be more thankful for what they did for me.
This to me is the most appropriate music I know that makes me stop and think about those that have given thier lives...For Us
