Remember

This weekend is of course a holiday weekend.  It's 2:30 on Friday and I'm sure many people have snuck out early to enjoy the long weekend.  It's great to have these breaks from the normal routine and to be able to spend some time relaxing with family and friends.

However, I found it ironic that many people forget the reason for this holiday.  A holiday created to help us remember the great sacrifices of so many men and women to secure and protect our way of life.  While I hope we all enjoy our break, don't forget to take time to remember.  I would encourage you to also thank God for the blessings we enjoy and for those who have and continue to sacrifice to maintain those blessings.
