Memorial Day Thoughts

I had planned to post something in honor of Memorial Day, but this post by BJ Hoff says it better than I ever could. Please visit it and reflect on the message.

To my comrades from every conflict who didn't return to home and family, I salute you and give thanks for your sacrifice. May the time come when the world beats its swords into plowshares and peace reigns.

I wish to each of you, my faithful readers, a wonderful, restful, meaningful holiday weekend.

It's Chatty Kelly again. I posted on this topic too, my husband is a Vietnam Vet. If you are interested you can come by and visit my Memorial Day post.

In any event, thank you for serving our country.

(By the way, my site is mostly "girl talk" so it probably won't be one you visit regularly, if you come by at all.)
