Yes, we appreciate those who sacrificed their lives for this nation, not 
knowing how much was sacrificed.  But just think: we have eternal freedom, 
even after America is destroyed, and we'll never realize, this side of 
Heaven, just how much god sacrificed when He sent His Son to be  tortured 
and shed His blood in order to pay the price, and how utterly undeserving we 
are to receive this gift!  Compared to this, our years of celebrating the 
freedom we have in this country is infinitely smaller than a grain of sand!
