I get it. You are looking forward to a 3 day weekend. Monday is a holiday, and you and your friends and family will be cooking out, and enjoying the sun. However, you and I may be alive and experiencing joyful moments, and the soldiers who helped to create a world in which you could do that may, in some cases, not be here to celebrate. Remember them. Nobody really knows whether there is an afterlife. In fact, the dogma is that you must have faith. Which means accepting something without a rational explanation. But, there are some things that are evidence based. One of them is that we are here partly because some men and women gave up their very lives for us. We should have a Memorial Day every day. So, take some time this weekend to be mindful of their sacrifice.
