Healing Field


I went to the Healing Field yesterday.  
What an amazing experience.  
(I have never been)
Not gonna lie, I got a little verklempt 
(who me?  never.) 
 
There were some flags that had ribbons 
with the names of men and women,
that had died while serving our country.

(I remember driving down this guy's neighborhood,
while visiting a friend, and the streets were 
COMPLETELY lined with flags and yellow ribbons)

I am grateful every day for the sacrifice these men and women put themselves through in serving our country.

So neat. I happened to drive by this field on Sept. 11, 2002 by accident. It was raining and the flags were flying. I was crying so much I had to pull over. It seems so long ago, yet so recent. Yesterday was a beautiful day to remember. I'm glad you got to go.
