Thank You

I have never served in the military. I can only imagine what it must be like to have served in the wars and conflicts; Or the myriads of tasks for which you are called upon and to which you always say "Yes". My heart is warmed each time I see anyone in a military uniform, and if the opportunity presents itself, I will humbly say, "THANK YOU". Yes. "THANK YOU" for your service to your great country. "THANK YOU" for giving up many of your personal freedoms so that I may remain free. "THANK YOU" for surrendering your personal pursuits so that I may freely pursue my hopes and dreams. "THANK YOU" for taking orders from your superiors so I need not feel inferior to any people or nation. For this and so much more, "THANK YOU, sir, mam". 110924PS
