A remembrance day

In the U.S. we are celebrating Memorial Day – a day to remember those who have fallen in service to our country. At the historic cemetery is a grave for a soldier who paid the ultimate sacrifice in the U.S. Civil War.

Being married to a historian, I know that there were many causes for that awful war. War is always awful.

I took time this morning to walk the historic cemetery. It is good and right to take time to contemplate our learned lessons, and reflect on the incredible price so many have paid for our benefit.
