On the surface, it's easy to look at today for what it is... a three day weekend. Who doesn't like those, right? Look a little deeper and you find a much more sobering reason why I didn't go to work today. Today is Veterans Day, A day we honor those who fought and died for this great nation. A day we honor those who fought and made it home. A day we honor those who served in the armed forces, giving of themselves, risking life and limb whether they saw combat or not.
I thank the veterans today. This is not just a cursory flick of the wrist. Uh yeah, thanks army guy. I appreciate the day off, dude. Not at all. This is a true, heartfelt thank you to those who made my very way of life possible. Thank you veterans. For everything!
