Happy Memorial Day

I just wanted to write a short blog to say thank you to all the service men and women and even their families for the sacrifice they give to serve the country I live in. It's so easy these days to overlook the job they do or to take advantage of the freedoms we have. It seems our society has become very complacent in our freedom. We seem to think that just because we are Americans we will always be free. Most of us, especially my generation, all we know is freedom. We overlook how great it is to be here, even with all our complaints. With that complacency I see that must of us no longer get involved in our politics or the strength of our communities. But I don't want to get to carried away with what I'm thinking at the moment. This weekend is about our soldiers who continue to serve us no matter how much we complain or sit and do nothing. They keep stepping out and leaving their families behind so we can sit behind our borders and be protected. I have many friends who have served and continue to serve. I can never say enough to you guys and gals for the time and effort you give. So to you men and women of the Unites States military I humbly say thank you for choosing to serve this great nation.
