The world is full of disasters, civil unrests, wars, political upheavals, and financial disarray. Our politicians are arguing and disagreeing over interests that are not best for the nation because they owe their souls to the highest bidders. Tornadoes and tsunamis are destroying cities and reshaping the destinies of their residents. Families are being torn apart due to countless reasons but mostly infidelities and financial. It is easier to fall out of love now than it is falling in love. Yet, despite it all, there are families that are still grateful that they are still being blessed even when they have lost everything they owned. Still the sun rises and sets, and during the days and nights we witness beautiful sights and share joys and sorrows. Today is Memorial Day! We pay tribute to those members of the military that have given their lives for our country. Without such gallant hearts, there is no telling what kind of country we would be living in this day. They fought for this country in the beginning from the Revolution to Civil War and Civil Rights. Including all other countless battles where people died for believing that there can be a better way to live. We owe these heroes our respect, honor, dignity, and appreciation. Let us never forget! Yes, indeed there are many of us mourning together today. So while many of us will be grilling, sailing, and drinking keep our men and women in the military in your prayers. They are risking their all in some very dangerous and hostile places.
I don't want to take anything away from our military and that is why this is under a separate pragraph. But there were many freedom fighters, poets, law enforcement officers and others that deserve our tribute, too! Many are not famous at all.
