Today is Veterans Day, a day to honor and remember all of the people who risked there life for our simple freedoms that we take granite every day. Honestly every morning or even once a day how many of actually stop to think how about the thousands who serve in our military? The thousands that left there friends, family, new wives, or even a new child to go thousands a miles away from home to fight for our freedom. My guess is not very many, and its sad and pisses me off. Because i know today during the assembly some where in the gym will be a few students who don't care and think its funny to make noises or be disruptive. And its not funny, its disrespectful and dishonoring. In the perfect world of Lee West those few disruptive students would be sent right the front line to learn the cost of freedom. But this isn't my perfect world. I just don't understand why its so hard for people take a few minutes out of the boring pointless life to just honor and remember those who have and our willing to give it there all. Freedom is not free, and if everyone as a nation together doesn't start to realize this we wont have it much longer. I know i cant make other remember or honor them but i promise i will as long as i live, and after high school i will join the Marines as another way to honor the fallen, but also so other generations can enjoy the freedom's i have
