Freedom

If everyone could go to sleep tonight learning only one thing this holiday, I hope it's "Freedom isn't free". A lot of brave men and women gave their lives to keep that freedom for all of us. We can worship where we wish, have firearms, protest, vote, and everything else that comes with a free society. Some say those who came back were lucky. If being lucky involves burying over half your friends by your 55th birthday, or having major health issues when we should be raising hell, then we are a blessed bunch. I hope everyone takes at least a silent moment to give one of these vets thanks, because freedom isn't free.
