Many babyboomers went to Vietnam and the Vietnam War. Far too many never came back, including friends of mine and boyfriends of mine. It makes me very sad to think that the same thing is happening today with all the young men and women going overseas, never to return to their families and friends. Is there anything all that can help? Today, on Memorial Day, we're honoring all the fallen men and women in every war. One thing that will happen during every service will be the playing of some of our best patriotic music. Of course we'll hear "Oh Beautiful for Spacious Skies," "My Country Tis of Thee," and "Proud to be an American," among other things. What will this mean for you? Do you find these songs healing, purposeful, and uplifting? I know that the composers who wrote them wanted them to make a difference in your loife and to inspire feelings of patriotism and gratitude. What songs do you want to hear today on Memorial Day? Please let me know.
