Thank a Veteran today...
Good things...Memorial Day typically marks the unofficial beginning of summer, another day off for most of us and picnics. But it is also time to remember our fallen veterans and an opportunity to thank other veterans.
Good people...well, our veterans of course. I wrote about my mother's three brothers before - Walt, Jim and Jack Jennings. All three were pilots. Jim was a POW in WW II and escaped. Jack lost his life when his plane was shot down.
Good times...I am fortunate to write for Victory Media, a company who owns G.I. Jobs, Vetrepreneur and Military Spouse. In this work, I interview a lot of veterans. This week as I was interviewing Stan, an Air Force veteran, he said, "Fearless does not mean fear does not exist, fearless means acting despite being afraid." Super advice.
Happy Memorial Day and to all the veterans, thank you for your service to our country.
