How often do we sit and realize just what we have in our lives? How often do we look beyond the material aspects of our life? As a person I know I don't often look past those things.......The last few weeks I have done quite a bit of soul searching to see what should I be thankful for....
Of course there are the best things in life...the health of my children, husband and extended family. I am thankful that I have a husband that loves me and accepts me for who I am. Beyond that...I am truly thankful to those that have given the ultimate sacrifice. I am thankful for those that gave themselves so that my children may have the chance of freedom. As a Soldier in my heart, since not in the flesh, it hurts my soul to hear of another brave soul lost to the enemy. To those that they leave behind.....know that you are not forgotten. Know that your loss is not in vain. Know that the principles they died to protect live on in those that believe in them....
To my fallen comrades in arms.....THANK YOU! It is to you that I dedicate this Thanksgiving to. It is because of you that I am able to live the life I live!
