I thank military service personnel every time I get the chance. Today was another day to pay my Vet-debt-a.

My prayer today was that love would override hate. And it did. I saw kindness everywhere toward veterans and civilians alike. At the grocery store, the crosswalk, the parking lot…everywhere I went today. For every neurotic comment I heard this week, there was someone smashing the paradigm instead of shifting it around and casting the blame.

I am grateful today for the balance of selflessness to the cancerous ignorance that abides nearby. Most importantly, the Vet-debt-a is an extension of ourselves that is required. I cherish the truth that individuals decided to live a life of selflessness as a profession.

It is our duty to pay our bills of gratitude and honor to these angels in uniform. If you see a soldier, say thank you. I’ve never had one disregarded. Your payment will go further than you think, so pay it as much as you can.

Peace & Thanks for listening!
