Today is Memorial Day, a holiday for us in the U.S. It’s a day on which we remember and honor those in the armed forces who gave their lives in the service of our country.

If the military isn’t your thing, consider honoring others who have given their lives in pursuit of a worthy cause. Not everyone has that level of dedication. Maybe they weren’t that dedicated or didn’t think the cause was worth dying for, but that was the manner of their death anyhow. Their sacrifice allowed others to carry on, and so we respect the circumstances.

If you end your life (or it is ended in another manner) while you’re pursuing a noble cause that benefits others, that’s a decent way to go.
