Description:
(The 3-Minute Weekly Insight from Spirituality U.)nDespite what we hear on television, Memorial Day is not just the unofficial beginning of summer. It is, rather, a special day on which Americans are invited to honor the sacrifice of citizens who gave their lives in service to their nation and its ideals.
