We should always remember how this Country evolved. President’s Day, Veteran’s Day, and other holidays are often viewed as an opportunity to have a three day weekend. It should be more than that.
There have been many Presidents who have done an amazing job, to help build this Country into what it has become. No matter what “side of the aisle” your political views are on, we have to remember that we are the only Country in the world that has accomplished so much in such a short period of time. Outside of the political arguments that seem to do little but secure the jobs of the politicians, we have to remember that our people make this Country what it is-not the politicians.
What our brave men and women in the service do each day, to allow us to continue to enjoy the freedoms that we take for granted, is under-appreciated by many.
Each of us needs to be involved in supporting each other. It isn’t hard to do. You just have to step outside of your daily routine and look for ways to help your fellow men and women.
It may be a neighbor or someone you have not met before, but you know that there is a need. Find out what it is. Pay it forward. Kindness multiplies and divides. Give it away. You will be a better person for it. “Now, let’s get going!” xo Sally
