This holiday was meant to acknowledge those who have given their lives in service to our country. I give a nod to those who made the great sacrifice.
It is also a day for remembering those who we have lost for other reasons. In that vein, I think of my mother. Jack, my step father. My grandmother, Jack's mother. My father as well.
Why is it that we don't appreciate our family members until they are no longer part of our lives?
I strongly suspect that K will experience that regret when I am gone. There's nothing I can do to prevent that. I've tried everything to reach out to him. I don't think that anything else that I could do will make a difference.
