It is Memorial Day and I stand
in the midst of row upon row of round white grave markers, small American flags
stuck into the ground stand waving in the gentle breeze before each one. Names and dates carved into cool marbled
stones catch my attention as the resonance of a 21 gun salute and Taps fades
into the quiet of the crowd standing to honor those we have come to
remember. The sacrifice of their very
lives given in the struggle for freedom through the years- We are most richly
blessed.
