This weekend’s festivities across the country are the epitome of “Americana”. The corn is almost head-high. Watermelons are juicy. Flags are waving. Fireworks light up the sky. Kids ride their bikes. Families picnic together. Churches gather for worship. People sing patriotic songs. Apple pies bake in ovens. An underdog wins the college baseball world series. These are nostalgic American traditions.
I'm humbled and grateful to enjoy the freedoms that have come at such a high cost for thousands of men and women in our military. When you hear the phrase “Freedom isn’t Free”. Be reminded of the costs associated with what we enjoy.
