"The Hero is one who kindles a great light in the world, who sets up blazing torches in the dark streets of life for men to see by."
- Felix Adler, Author and Philosopher.
As we run to the beach or crank up the grill this weekend, lets take a minute to remember why we have the extra day off... As a kid, I was a Cub Scout, and we spent the day putting the flags beside each tombstone of the fallen soldiers - pretty deep stuff for a 10 year old. Experiences like that do make us all more well-rounded people, and let us appreciate the things that others do for us.
I say this all the time - If you see a soldier, tell them thanks. You really can't say it enough. Have a safe and Happy Memorial Day!
