Veterans' Day

We're all busy and enjoy being free and going about our lives. Many times we don't take the opportunities to remember holidays that many consider insignificant lately. November 11 began as Armistice Day, but a resolution passed in 1926 that made it an official Federal holiday, Veterans' Day.

Veterans Day is a chance to remember those who fought in around the world from World War I to the current war in Afghanistan. Take a moment to say a prayer, to bless our past and current soldiers who have fought for the United States. We should be grateful, honored and expressive of our great country which holds personal freedom so dear and the men and women who fought, died and survived to allow us the freedom to write our feelings and read them. We are blessed.

Hug your nearest soldier today!
