Today is Friday, and I do hope your week has been a great one. If not, I implore you to look forward to the weekend, and spend the time you need to exhale from your exhausted week.

I do hope you are feeling the spirit of comradeship, where you can share in some sort of fun activities this weekend. Even if your spirit is a bit dampened for whatever reasons, I hope you can still feel a sense of peace and joy.

As you revel in the celebration of Memorial Day, do not forget to remember those who have given their lives while serving our country.
