Memorial Day is for Remembering

Well, it's Memorial Day 2009.

What do we remember today? Our fallen Heroes, who gave their lives for Liberty—our liberty and freedom. So, today we can say a prayer that they and their families will be blessed for their sacrifice; and for our country that it may maintain the principles of Freedom and good Government; and for ourselves and our families, that we may do our part in upholding the Laws of the Land, and Voting for good men and women of sound character and moral standing who will represent us in the quest for limited government, laws that protect life, laws that are fair and foster economic growth and individual independence from government, and all the other facets of true freedom and prosperity.

And we can also remember those less fortunate than ourselves. We can remember the Children who need our help. We can get involved. We can work to make a difference. We can Sponsor a Child and help others to do the same. It takes work, it takes commitment, it takes persistence and courage. But that we can do. We can be Heroes too! Great things can be accomplished with our effort: “. . . out of small things proceedeth that which is great!”

So Memorial Day is for Remembering—the past, the present, and the future. We remember the past to learn from it and give honor where it is due; we remember the present and the blessings we enjoy; we remember the future and the opportunities it represents.

Then we do our part. Trivani can be a significant part of that effort.

God bless us all this Memorial Day.
