Good morning,
Happy Memorial Day to all of you who have served and come home. You are appreciated even if sometimes it seems that those in Charge do not. The rest of us know. I know this seems like it is celebrated as an American holiday but I have always felt that it reaches out to touch all of those who went to War for what ever cause.
Memorial Day. People like to think that it’s for the American dead only but I like to think that it’s for everyone who went off to War and never came home. Doesn’t matter for what reason they fought or for who. At the end of the day there was a chair that never felt their touch again, a book always unfinished, a puppy who waited for that special step on the path leading home, lamps unlit and fires never struck into life again. So remember today those that you have lost and spare a second for the other ones. Somewhere a heart you might never know grieves their loss as well.
regards,
Painless Black Wolf
