A thoughtful piece on Memorial Day by Janet Wu

It was so great to see Janet Wu at our Reunion.  She is a thoughtful and vivacious part of the class.  Last year she wrote a great Op Ed for the Boston Globe, which you should check out.

Janet does not wish people "Happy Memorial Day" because for many this is a day of somber remembrance.  Instead, she leaves this blessing:

So my wish to you on this Memorial Day weekend:
May you live a long, happy, and peaceful life.
May you have the privilege of time to realize your potential.
May you die gently and old in the embrace of a loved one.
On this Memorial Day weekend, let’s think of all those who did not.
Let’s honor their lost potential by reflecting how precious life is.
