As always there is never a photo I have that can say enough, so I wrote this instead… I know it is a day late, but it is never too late to say thank you.
For those who have laid down their lives on distant shores
Protecting freedoms both mine and yours
For those fortunate that returned home to family and friends
Praying for the day that these war would end
It is your day veterans one and all
May the valor you have shown allow all of us to stand tall
So I have neglected this blog a bit as of late. But, today was a great day. I was lucky enough to be asked to Guest Blog on Scott Kelby’s Blog today and it was great. I got a chance to talk about the project I am working on about shelter dogs in the area I live called “The Abandoned Project”. It definitely has been a journey of sorts as of late, but today was a great day to see all the great comments coming in from Scott’s readers and from the posts over on Facebook as well. It’s funny if you would have asked me a year ago if I would be doing a project like this I would have said “I am not sure.” However, I am really glad that I took this on and that I am getting to talk about it with the amazing folks here, on Facebook, and wherever else I can spread the word… d
So long story not so short, I am going to endoevour not to neglect this blog as much as I have lately, but just incase I am not posting, use the Facebook link at the bottom of the page and find me over there or on the Marley’s Mutts Facebook Page
This is something I wrote a few years back and I think it still is a good way to remember the day…
STANDING ON THE EDGE
For those who stand on the edge between darkness and light
Your bravery stood fast and lasted the test of time to fight for what’s right
You were the ones who drew the line in the sand
Telling the darkness you will not harm this great land.
Your actions have allowed freedom to ring true
All things are possible by the things that you do
So today is a day that is for you; the brave men and women who fight, who’ve fought, who’ve fallen to protect our home.
May the light stand between you and the darkness keep you safe and guide you wherever you may roam.
