The Memorial Day….. Please Remember…by Vidya
Vidya Nalawade
In the US, on the last Monday of the month of May, we have a holiday called Memorial Day. This is the day when we remember those who are serving in the military today. Those soldiers who are somewhere in the world doing something that allows us to do what we are doing or what we want to do. We also remember those who have served and given time and limbs and lives so that we are safe in our homes and also all of those who have died while serving the nation.
This day inspired me to spend a moment to give salute to all of the brave people who worked hard without even caring about their lives so that we can live our lives to the fullest…so that we could enjoy all things and independence and be safe. They deserve a salute.
After celebrating this Day, I have realized independence is not just specific to any country or region; this is the big concept of humanity. Every human deserves to be independent. Also it occurred to me that there are so many people who are ready to do something for society like sacrificing their happiness and even sometimes lives.
So please, I ask you to please remember all who are there standing ALERT in adverse weather conditions, so that you can do what you are doing right now, so that you can enjoy your life.
A salute from me to all of them…
Cheers! Vidya
