I am eternally grateful for those who have fought for the rights and liberties I enjoy today. Both of my grandfathers and my dad are war-time veterans. I also have a cousin currently in the Army. I am so grateful and proud of them. And more then that, I am thankful and proud to be an American.
I came across this quote today. I appreciate it and hope to be a better example of it too.
"As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them." ~John Fitzgerald Kennedy
