The most important thing to remember today, Memorial Day, can be found in this short but very important fact of reality: 'Freedom means having nothing else to lose'
Unfortunately, millions of American today don't understand what freedom is anymore, they have had too long to remember what it would be like if it were taken away.
Sadly, the only way they will understand what it means to be free is when they aren't. Then, of course, it will be too late.
It's extremely important to remember freedom is not free, it must be bought and secured by those of us willing to pay the ultimate price.
So, put down the electronic devices, relax the thumbs, look around at what our heroes in uniform, from 1776 to 2014, have given us all at a price we can't even imagine, our freedom to choose.
Honor these heroes by giving a little of your time to understand what our country means to us to millions of others around the world that do not have the God given right to be free.
