Memorial Day at Yielding Wealth

Today is the observation of Memorial Day. It is a time of reflection, and a time of gratitude. While we should keep our brave service men and women in our thoughts more 800px-fort_logan_national_cemetery_5 often, I think that it is a good thing that we take a special day to honor our fallen.

Also, it is worth noting that for many Memorial Day has become a day that honors all our ancestors and loved ones who have gone before, providing us a connection to the past, and a day on which we can take time to slow down and express our gratefulness for those who have built our nation.

I plan to lay flowers on graves and talk to my son about sacrifice, duty and loyalty. And about our country.

What will you do for Memorial Day?

for me, my family visited our grandparents in our mother’s side. i’m a bit happy that people have not yet forgotten the virtues of Memorial Day.
