The Meaning of Memorial Day

“Timeless Truths” Episode 74 - “The Meaning of Memorial Day”This is a replay of my episode from last year – but it’s information is timeless, so I decided I needed to air this again. Even if you listened to it last year, I encourage you to listen to it again because we need to remember and honor the men and women who gave their lives for our freedom.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·     The difference between Memorial Day and Veteran’s Day·     The meaning of the “poppy” as a Memorial Day symbol·     Memorial Day Traditions·     Things NOT to do on Memorial Day·     The American Legion & VFW·     Arlington National Cemetery·     The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier·     Veterans’ Museums·     My Memorial Day Story 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 5% of podcasts globally.
