To spread good will and hope all around.  |
| Prompt: Memorial Day Waterloo, NY was the town. which first celebrated the Memorial day on May 5, 1866. It was chosen because it hosted an annual, community-wide event, during which businesses closed and residents decorated the graves of soldiers with flowers and flags. What is the picture that comes to your mind when you think of a soldier fighting in the front lines for his country? ------------- Memorial Day is a day for serious reflection of the sacrifice of all the women and men who fought for the rest of us, our nation. I mean holding vigils by their graves and decorating the graves of the fallen and doing all the other remembrances are fine...for those of us who are still alive. I believe, however, we would do them much greater honor by being better citizens ourselves and thinking of and working for the common good for our country. After all, they did die for us with a wish for the goodness and fairness of our nation in their minds. They marched through fear and bore the cost with such courage no soldier is lost under the flag so bold and free their hearts lie on land and sea thus, today is not for play but to thank those who paved our way. |
