Memorial Day Gifts from the Heart

Seattle (ESTRA) - Memorial Day Weekend Memories invoke much emotion especially when thinking about those we’ve loved and lost. Spending time at the cemetery longing for that one gentle touch one more time from someone so dearly missed brings back memories of joy and sadness.

One can always hold on to love. It’s a great gift that cannot be taken away. There is always a place in ones heart for love of someone held close.

The millions of lives lost going to war is the ultimate sacrifice. Has it been worth it for those giving up their lives? Have we given those who return home the respect and honor deserved? Is the average person aware of what each of these souls have meant to us by their sacrifice?

Visit a cemetery this weekend just to see those who made this sacrifice and say thank you. Show appreciation for their lives cuts short for the citizens of USA. Say thank you for all things in their life missed, their children growing up, time with their wife, or just learning whom they would have become.

This is a Memorial Day Gift given from the heart. A visit to cemetery says, “thank you” to someone whom you did not know and did not know you, but gave you all they had, their life for your protection.

For the living that made it home, give them the benefits promised. It’s time for leaders of the USA to stop disrespecting those who keep our country safe. Stop being greedy and say thank you by helping them reintegrate into society which includes Medical Care, Housing, Mental Health, Jobs, and transition support.

Also available as support gifts are Mugs!
