Memorial Day, 2011

Memorial Day. All amazing words of wisdom or erudite thoughts have been expressed before. We all know that along side our picnics and bar-b-cues, beach parties and beer to see in the summer, there are the wounded, the dead, the grieving and the continuing presence of harm’s way. The important thing for us is to Remember all that. To say Thank You when we can. To recognize and remind our children that our freedoms have come at a price all the way back to 1776. It is with blessings and gratitude as well as remembrance that I lit my prayer candle this morning.
