All too often we forget that our ordinary life is the very thing our country’s very best died protecting.
Giving up their life for moments they would never even get to see or live out for themselves.
If they could see America today, I wonder what they would think .. maybe they would be heart broken seeing their sacrifices have become background noise in a comfortable country. Maybe they would look at the ordinary lives unfolding beneath the freedom they protected and feel peace knowing their life became someone else’s future.
Help us to live out each day in a way they would smile softly and think, “it was worth it”..
The families you never got to build, life you never got to live, ordinary moments you never got to have .. we remember you. Thank you will never be enough. Because of you - million of us can.
