Unbroken...

I just finished reading an amazing book, Unbroken, by Lauren Hillenbrand - the author of Seabiscuit. It's a true story covering the life of Louis Zamperini, an Olympic runner who is drafted for WW II and ultimately captured as a POW after surviving an airplane crash and drifting on the Pacific ocean for 47 days. The timeliness of it made such an impact on me, and this Memorial Day has taken on a new meaning than it has in the past. Admittedly, when I think of this holiday, images of sleeping in, grilling and pool time come to mind, but thanks to such a beautiful story, I will reflect more on those that have lost lives serving our country and their families...

Hoping your Memorial Day is relaxing and spent with the people you love!
