Today is Veterans Day, and I want to take a moment to say thank you to those who have served and those currently serving to defend our country and the cause of liberty. I suppose the older one gets the more valuable life appears. The young can't appreciate the experiences of life the same way as the aged because they haven't experienced the depth of friendship, marriage, parenthood, and all those things that make life rich, at least I know I didn't. The more wealthy one becomes in life experiences the more we recognize that it is possible only through the sacrifice of others; especially the young who have put their lives on the line. Those young men and women who make the ultimate sacrifice do so having never enjoyed the gift that they provide for others. Thank you to all who are serving and have served.
