About Labor Day

9/2/2012

1 Comment

 
According to Wikipedia, Labor Day is an American federal holiday observed on the first Monday in September (September 3 in 2012) that celebrates the economic and social contributions of workers.

Labor Day pays tribute to the contributions and achievements of American workers. It also symbolizes the end of summer for many Americans, and is celebrated with parties, parades and athletic events.

While many of us are just happy to have a long weekend off from work, we are more aware these days how fortunate we are to have jobs. 

Take time to reflect today on how far America has come through the achievements of its workers.  It is through the hard work of many men and women that America is what it is today.

We must not lose the work ethics of our ancestors, but rather build upon what we have learned from them.

We have these holidays to remember and to give thanks...
Thank you to our soldiers...Veterans Day...Thank you to those who served and died...Memorial Day...Thank you for our independence....Fourth of July, and this weekend...Thank you to ALL our Workers who make America what it is today.

May God bless America!
