Veterans Day. Veterans Day is a really special day. It is the day that we remember and thank those who served and fought for our freedom. Veterans are the ones who suffered through many hardships for you and me. Some live everyday with vivid memories of war, most watched their fellow service men/women die. Veterans are some of the strongest people I know. They deserve so much recognition. They faced more horrors than you and I could ever imagine facing. Most veterans are also some of the sweetest people you will ever meet. I had a World War 2 veteran … Continue reading VETERAN’S DAY//MILITARY APPRECIATION

About a month ago, I discovered a country artist by the name of Granger Smith. I had listened to a few of his songs before but I never looked into him much until I discovered the song They Were There. I was hit insta-love after listening to it for the first time. I listened to it on repeat for days. I soon discovered that this song was part of a documentary that Granger put together last year. Y’all this documentary needs more publicity. It needs to be shown in every high school. It needs to be broadcasted on TV. I … Continue reading THEY WERE THERE//PATRIOTISM WEEK

Whether we choose to admit it or not, we tend to be very forgetful about our military. We forget about the thousands of men and women fighting for our freedom. They give up so much, family, safe and warm homes, friends, their daily lives, and sometimes even their lives for us. They deserve so much more then what our country has given them. They deserve to be recognized. I believe that God gave me this passion for a reason. I do not know why at this exact moment however I am praying that God will reveal it soon. I want … Continue reading WHY I STAND BY THE MILITARY//PATRIOTISM WEEK

Okay because I can’t REALLY choose a certain number of songs that I love the most in the category of songs, I am really just going to share a bunch of patriotic songs that I think everyone should at least listen to once. Once y’all once. The order that these songs are in is the way that they came on shuffle while I was creating this post. xD Note: I did not include songs like the Star-Spangled Banner, God Bless America, etc. These songs are mostly country, patriotic songs. ~~~ 1.) Have you Forgotten by Darryl Worley I’ve been there … Continue reading MY TOP PATRIOTIC SONGS//PATRIOTISM WEEK

Memorial Day is not all about having a BBQ with family and friends. It’s not about the end of school or that Summer is right around the corner. It is about remembering the brave men and women who have died fighting for our freedom. It is the day that we honor and remember those taken from this world while fighting. Our military has fought so many wars against so many different powers just so we can have the freedom we do today. Everyday we lose men and women overseas who are fighting for our freedom. Ever since the beginning of … Continue reading MEMORIAL DAY//MILITARY APPRECIATION
