A Thought on those who Serve(d)

I just watched one of the best movies ever made. Ever. Oh my it was so good. You all need to watch this movie. It'll make you cry, guaranteed. Except this is more of a chick flick, but guys should watch this, too! What movie am I speaking about, do you ask?

THE LOST VALENTINE

It's taken back during WWII and it's about this married couple who has the husband go off to war on the very day of their first anniversary. The husband goes MIA listed and for the next 66 years, the wife is just living her life on her own, and every anniversary she keeps her promise and goes to the Union Station to sit there, waiting for her husband. AH! It's so sad, but just so good! It made me cry a lot. What made me cry even more was the fact that they show a military service at the end, and those things make me cry all the time as well. I don't want to tell too much about it, but it was just so good. You should all go see it, especially you girls.

On this note, I think this is a good timing (for me) to remind me about the services and those who died on 9/11 ten years ago. Man, I can't believe it's already been 10 years. I was 9 years old at the time and getting ready to go to school when I first heard about it. It's just really crazy that so much has happened since that day; and yet, unlike WWII or anything, our world here isn't revolving around this war in everything that we do. It makes me think that some citizens may not know what's going on for sure. I definitely don't know what's going on lately. 

I'm just so grateful and respectful for everyone who has ever served, or who is serving. I know I could never be in the military services and so to me, those people are heroes in my eyes. I know I am just one person who they are protecting, but to me, it means everything. 

Tomorrow, take a moment of silence to reflect the lives lost from 9/11, in any situation.
