I try to keep this blog fairly non-political. But be forewarned, this post veers into the slightly political.
Today is Memorial Day. A day to commemorate those who have served, those who are serving, and those who have lost their lives fighting for our country.
I have the utmost respect and appreciation for those who serve in our Armed Forces, for their sacrifice and dedication.
I have so many friends in the service and every time I see them I can see how much stronger and confident they have become. That they are. They are some of the people closest to me, and they are simply amazing. I believe in them.
That said, I wish we lived in a society where war wasn't such a necessity. Where we didn't have to send so many to fight and die for things that seem so trivial when juxtaposed with the lives they cost.
Today, I am saying thank you for your service and sacrifice. To be safe and stay strong.
I am also promising to fight in my own way to try to create a society where all of this violence would not be needed.
