Remembrance.
American flag flying in the wind
This day, once it is, complete will kick off a three-day weekend. Everyone deserves the promise of time off to honor those who gave so much. As I sit and think about what Memorial Day means to me, I get a profound feeling of gratitude for those who gave their lives that I might be able to live my life in peace. There is nothing I can do to repay their gift other than to pause and remember how dear the sacrifice. So I shall. Today’s JohnKu is a memorial.

Too soon came the call,
For you to offer yourself. . .
To protect our life.
Enjoy the weekend.
Thank you so much for the reblog, Suzanne.
