Freedom is not a
Right but a privilege.
Our active military and
Veterans are the people
We should thank for
Our freedom that
We have today because
They not only endure
The terror of fighting for us
But they also endure the
Fear of what could happen but
Also the sadness of losing a friend,
loneliness and
Darkness they face on a daily basis.
Even though they may be
Locked into serving his/her
Country due to military orders received but
In the end, our loved ones and friends
Will either come home in death or
They will make it home to their
Families and that’s when
The celebration will start.
So instead of
Taking just one day to
honor our veterans, let’s
honor all of our military
By saying thank you
Anytime we see a
Veteran or a
Family member of a
Fallen veteran.
The fact of the matter is,
We should honor
All of our veterans
Everyday.
Thank You Veterans!
