Hello, dear readers!  I hope you’re enjoying your day off today instead of reading this blog post.  But, for the dedicated and overzealous among us, I wish you a happy and meaningful Memorial Day!

As always, your humble blogger invites you to take the break from the hustle and craziness of work to reflect as much as rest.  For many families, every day is memorial day – there’s an empty chair at every Thanksgiving; at every wedding; at every aspect of life.  For those of us who are fortunate enough not to be in such a position, having lost a family member in service to the United States, Memorial Day is as much an opportunity to honor the memory of countrymen gone in the discharge of their military duties, as the families they left behind.

Be especially kind to everyone you meet today, dear readers, because, to quote Ian Maclaren, “everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle.”
