regular guys sometimes forget the meaning of things, you know busy with work, family, working on your golf game... well memorial day is one federal holiday that we should not forget the meaning. memorial day began as decoration day, named after the act of decorating the grave sites of fallen union soldiers. later it came to include all branches of the armed services and all wars. so today while you lay on the beach, play a round of golf or cook out in the back yard take a moment and remember how good you have it. men and women have died so that we can play golf, drive cars, make choices and lead regular lives. so although most people look at memorial day as the beginning of summer, regular guys should look at it as a day to give thanks for our freedoms. next time you see a person who serves our nation in the armed forces, go out of your way to shake their hand and thank them for their service. they are all hero's and deserve your attention and respect.
have a fun day and don't forget to golf your balls.
