Pillar of Strength

Reality check - is what I'm doing important? Am I making an impact? I would like to think so. At home, at work, at Kung Fu and anywhere else.

Today we went to the Alberta Police and Peace Officers' Memorial Day ceremony. This is a memorial for all the men and women who died serving their communities as police officers or peace officers. It was taken place in Edmonton next to the Pillar of Strength. There are currently 100 names on the memorial. These are people who left their families every day going to work in an unsafe environment to make us all safer. Law enforcement personnel have a great impact on our life. They allow us to be safe on the road, on the streets and in our homes.

I have the highest respect to these individual who choose to serve and protect us and utmost honor to these who paid with their life while doing so.
