Memorial Day


This quote was left as a comment by my friend Sarge Charlie.

On this Memorial Day remember my friends who died for your freedom. Dear Lord, lest I continue in my complacent ways, help me to remember that someone died for me today. And if there be war, help me to remember to ask and to answer “am I worth dying for?”~

  1. Hi Mel,
    This simply beautiful.

    And congratulations to you, your family and most especially your daughter.

    Please forgive me I did not get updated today. I barely have a connection and it took me literally almost 5 hours just to make this simple post of which you are a part of.

    There was just no way that ny connection would let me do this copy and paste.

    As soon as we get to a bigger town with a better connection I wil get it done on the big bang. I am only a week behind.

    WowZer...I am beat. This one is a fun one. And I played and made it fun and cheerful. That's one reason I chose you. You can make one so fun and positive also.
    Hugs,
    Jackie:-)

  3. Hi Mel,
    Thanks for playing and anytime will be fine.

    And thank you for reminding me about adding myself...lolz...I was so frustrated due to my connection that I completely forgot to add myself.

    I shall aim for Thursday and dedicate the entire post to The Big Bang again.

    Wow we are getting so close. What a fantastic idea it was for a meme.

  5. Shinade,
    I understand the frustration of a dial-up connection. We sure get spoiled fast. I am currently on a Cable modem at 15 GB/second and I am switching to Fios that transfers data at 50 GB/second. It can never be fast enough.
