Memorial day is not Grieving Day. It is a thankful remembrance of how great these guys were, not how pathetic their deaths were, and how bad we feel now that they are gone. It is not about us, it is about them, and the magnificence of their sacrifice.
Pathos is the highest form of human existence in the media"s eyes. If it cries, it flies. If it bleeds it leads. If it inspires, it is forgotten.
The day should be inspirational, not a downer. There has been a subtle shift in the society. We love grieving. This is not healthy. Not healthy at all.
