Darlene,
What a powerfully poignant post you have written. Thank you for reminding all of us about how lucky we are to live the way we live, even with financial struggles or health concerns or relationship problems. Most of us have a roof over our head, food on the table and lots of other comforts of life that we just take for granted.

We must never forget those that have served and the ones that are serving. They help give us the freedoms that many take for granted. Thank You for this wonderful Post. Bill .-= Bill Hartman´s last blog ..Will the IPad Help You With Social Media =-.

Hi Darlene,
Thank you for posting this. It’s a tribute to those who really sacrifice so much, and families too. That picture you posted says it all. Yet, we should honor them throughout the year and never forget what they do for us … ever.

An amazingly powerful post Darlene,
I have to doubt that anyone could read through and end up with dry eyes.
I certainly was not able to.
The gratitude due to these men and woman is imeasureable.
Thanks for reminding everyone.
To world Peace.

I am with you…I hold a great deal of admiration and honor for the brave men and women who fought for us. I know memorial day is specifically honoring WW2 vets…but I honor all. And I am thankful for each person who has given up so very much for my continued freedom. Thanks for sharing your thoughts once again in such a beautiful manner. Blessings Darlene! .-= Bruce Backman´s last blog ..Training Video 1 =-.

A very moving post Darlene. Here in Australia we just had our remembrance day and it never ceases to amaze me how emotional this day can be. War to me is so senseless and hard to fathom but these people had such courage and unquestionable faith in what they were doing that its incredibly commendable. That photo you have there is pretty amazing. Thanks for sharing this Darlene
Cheers,
Matt

Darlene, The words you say sum it up beautifully for many of us. Like you, I haven't had close relatives who've served, and now I have two sons planning joining the Navy. That gives me an entirely new outlook on military service - I've always been grateful from a distance, now it is much closer to home. Thank you, Linda .-= Linda G Cox´s last blog ..List Building: The Key to Internet Marketing Success =-.

Hi Dar, Such a powerful post! Thanks so much for reminding me of how grateful I am to the men and women who so unselfishly have given their lives so that I can live the life I choose to live. We should certainly spend some time remembering them. .-= Debbie Stevens´s last blog ..The Picture of Success =-.
