Sacrifice

On this Memorial Day,
I'd like to take the opportunity to share my gratitude
for the servicemen/women who have given
of their time, their youth, their family, and their lives
defending us and this nation.
Too few folks these day realize the magnitude
of the sacrifice they make.
It seems the patriotism for this country
is seeping out of every crack and crevice.
We need to find our way back to acknowledging
what these folks fought for,
saluting their sacrifice,
and realizing it is in their selflessness
that we enjoy so very much.

Thank you!
You are all so very brave and courageous.
I appreciate you.
I comment you.
I salute you.
