"Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, it became a butterfly"

On this Memorial Day, I am reminded of a springtime visit many years ago  to Arlington National Cemetery where I took a photo of the tulips near the headstones.  I looked at the photo later and was reminded  of Pete Seeger's memorable song sung by Peter, Paul, and Mary, "Where Have All the Flowers Gone?"    "Where have all the soldiers gone ... gone to graveyards everyone." 

When will we ever learn?  On this Memorial Day, may we never forget those who have made the ultimate sacrifice to preserve our freedom.♥
