Rolled out of my truck sleeper early this Sunday morning after a restful nights sleep and watched as the sun come up with a cup of hot coffee in hand and thought to myself how fortunate I was to enjoy the beauty, peace and tranquility of such a miraculous begining of a another spectacular day in free America!

I sat confortably in the drivers seat reflecting upon all of the good things I have in life such as family, Health, Prosperity, a job I love, and especially my freedom!

I also thought of people who had given up all their conforts of Home, Family, and Good Jobs to go off and fight a dirty war in a far off place filled with extreme danger, uncertainty and death!

I thought of the Families left behind in America who woke up every morning not knowing if their loved ones off in the war were still alive today or if they would even be coming home,
I thought of how They woke up in the morning not knowing if today would be the day that a knock on the door would announce the tragic news of the loss of a Mother, Father,Husband, Wife, Son or daughter.
I thought of all of those who had given everything there was to give and those who lost everything they had!

What a contrast between me wondering where in this beautiful free land of America I would be trucking to and what Truck-Stop I would park in at days end, while thousands of other good folks in a land of terror wondering if they would just be alive by the end of the day!

I thought to myself how grateful I am and how I truly thank each and every brave Soldier for giving me the feedom and the opportunity of seeing the sun come up on this beautiful Sunday morning!!

I owe so much to so many! God watch over and shield the brave men and women at war, bring them all home so they too again may see the magnificent sun coming up over the land we call America the Beautiful!
