I think I've watched this video one too many times, and still, it gives me chills...There's just something about the day and age that we live in that has made my pride for our country rise to a whole new level. And as we get ready to celebrate our nations birthday...the day our freedom was restored, I hope we can keep in mind the true meaning of the day.
I can not even begin to express my undying gratitude for the brave men and women of our country that fight to uphold our beliefs, to defend our country, to give us our freedom. As we have our bbq's, let our flags wave high, and watch the sky burst with beauty, let's keep in mind the amazing people who make this all possible.
As I sat and watched this video, comfortable in my home, I thought of the men and women in the trenches, on the front line, torn away from their families, alone, and I am so saddened...but even more, I am just proud.
I have so much emotion that words just can not capture. Words can not do justice to the sacrifice that these countless number of men and women make. And not just soldiers, but their families as well.
So thank you to all those who serve our country, we celebrate this day for you and because of you. You are truly my heroes.
