Memorial Day



Thank you, men and women who gave their lives for our freedom, and those who survived but still sacrificed their time, their safety, and left a part of their hearts on the battlefield.


Thank you to our ancestors who fought for religion and laid the foundation for us to build on today.

To all who have gone ahead, for whatever reason, at whatever stage of life - thank you for the examples you set, the memories you left, and all that you stood for. I'm thinking about you today.

Loved your thoughts.

That was so cute!
I loved it!! The comics were cute, too.

I'm a blogger that probably no one has heard of, and I want to be more acquainted with writers. Well, thanks for that beautiful poem.
