Waking up on a clear, crisp, Sunday morning is one of my favorite things in the entire world. I sit in the comfort of my house with family so near and I wonder...
The women and men who are thousands of miles from home, in a hostile environment, risking their lives so that I can sit comfortably in my home... what do they think of me?
I know, they are fighting for our country. The ideal that is the United States of America. But our country is only a beautiful concept without its people. So ultimately, they are fighting for me... and you.
Why am I worth it? What do I provide to this world? This country? This community? My home? What makes me worth dying for?
It's easy to get caught up worrying about our own day-to-day problems, enjoyments, comforts, etc. But, like it or not, we're all part of something bigger. When you think of those that have given their life for you... make them proud. Do something worth dying for!
