Memorial Day

A partial reprint from 2006:

Today I’d like every reader to pause for a moment at this point, and to honour, each in your own way, the memory of every soldier of every nation who has died in the service of his or her country and ideals, in support of their way of life. And I’d like each of you, in your own way, to look ahead to the day when there’s no more of it, because we’ll have learned how to live together peacefully, and to resolve our differences in other ways.

Thank you, to all who have served.
