Seriously - Memorial Day!

I am so thankful I never had to sacrifice myself...

I am a wuss - I am not courageous...

But, seriously, I am so thankful that others have sacrificed and are courageous...

Some great books I have read (and reread) that really make you think about veterans and the effects of war in general are:

Night, but Elie Wiesel

Unbroken, by Laura Hillenbrand - the story of  WWII vet and runner, Louis Zamperini

The Diary of Anne Frank

These things will break your heart and remind you of the strength of mankind.

I will be at the Memorial Day Parade tomorrow morning in Putnamania starting at 10am, standing with my hand on my heart for those who did what I never could. 

I am the most thankful Putnamaniac to those who have served!
