Memorial Day

“Timeless Truths” Episode 46 - “Memorial Day” Memorial Day is often seen as the unofficial start of summer. But the true meaning of Memorial Day is something very different. I want to talk about it – as I consider PATRIOTISM a “foundational value” which is a cornerstone of my podcast. It is a “timeless truth” that we all should know and understand. It is the day to honor our fallen soldiers – who gave their lives for our freedom. For veterans, it's a chance to honor those who are no longer here. We can never repay them for laying down their lives for us – but we can remember them this day. SHOW NOTES:·     The meaning and origin of Memorial Day (3:05)·     The difference between Memorial Day and Veteran’s Day (7:20)·     The meaning of the “poppy” as a Memorial Day symbol (8:15)·     Memorial Day Traditions (11:20)·     Things NOT to do on Memorial Day (14:10)·     The American Legion & VFW (15:00)·     Arlington National Cemetery (15:55)·     The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier (18:15)·     Veterans’ Museums (25:05)·     My Memorial Day Story (27:00) You can listen in on Apple or Spotify - Same links each time.Apple –https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/timeless-truths/id1695920504Spotify –https://open.spotify.com/show/0TU2Tj6gmTY3tuwiU3DrUHFor links to other podcast platforms, use LinkTree –https://linktr.ee/drchris024 I want to invite you to FOLLOW this podcast so that you never miss an episode! Please give it a “5” rating if it speaks to you and comment.This is Dr. Christine Van HornWebsite: www.drchris.coEmail: [email protected]: https://www.facebook.com/wisdom.drchris “Timeless Truths” is rated by “ListenNotes.com” as being in the top 10% of podcasts globally.
