How would you react or live your live if you knew yesterday that someone gave their life so you could live? Christianity is based on the faith that Jesus gave his life for our sins but that is faith. There are many other martyr’s in various faith’s yet their sacrifice seems quite distant . Yet today there are some who can tell their stories such as the Holocaust survivor who knows their loved one pushed them in the line of life while they died, or the Syrian family member who covered their child with their live so they wouldn’t die of poison gas. How would one remember such individuals who might have been far from perfect in their regular life but gave it all to save you or their community? Would some marker be enough or would a guilt burden’s one heart every beep? I guess it’s how we keep such a person alive in our acts and thoughts that will allow one to continue their life beating at it’s own pace and whether we would do the same if so called.
Thank you Bud, God bless.
G-D bless you as well my friend
