Our freedom is ours . Soldiers did not secure it. We, the people, did. And do.Don’t forget Memorial Day isn’t about cooking out and getting blasted. Remember those who sacrificed. https://t.co/Qy2SBup7gh

For me, Memorial Day is a day to show respect to the dead and the living NG. To grill hamburgers, and watch my wife walk around the house in shorts; and realize she looks as good at 70 as she did at 20. (Yes, it’s a sexist thing to say. Definitely prioritizing the male gaze. Guilty as charged. Mea culpa, mea culpa, mea maxima culpa.)
Which makes me the luckiest man alive.
I’ll eat a 🍔 to honor the departed.
I was at one of the local events and something that has been moving about in my mind finally came into focus: these men and women didn't die for our "freedom". Quite the opposite: they died to maintain our right to govern ourselves, to extend that right to other people. *that* is a responsibility
