On Honoring Those Who Displayed and Display Bravery and Courage Daily.
Without fanfare, without accolades and sometimes even with protesters in the wings, millions of brave women and men have conscientiously made the decision to serve and protect our country and our freedoms.
How can we possibly honor them?
We can start with respect. Saluting the flag without respect for individual Americans misses the full meaning.
We can add in kindness to strangers as we are strangers to most of our military.
We can exercise courage in our words and in our actions. And while we are not asked to stand in the way of bullets, we can and we should stand up for and beside those who are taking bullets from a variety of fronts and cannot speak up for themselves.
We can be brave enough to admit that we have a lot to learn. And even when we think we've completed our learning, realizing we've just begun to learn and comprehend our full responsibilities as American and world citizens.
We can commit to memorializing every day we are given and living it with decency and support to others.
In honor of those who stepped up when they heard the call, we wish you a memorable Memorial Day.
From Foster Strategies Group, we thank the fallen and all who have dedicated their life to our freedoms.
