PURPLE HEART FOR LIVING
Correspondent Ed Bradley visited the Vietnam Memorial in Washington and happened to notice a letter propped against the black wall. This is what it said: “Hi lover. I wanted to come back and say hello. You know, I went ahead and married Dick and we have a beautiful little girl. Her favorite color is purple, the color of this stationary. I went to Arlington to see your grave and on it, it said you got a Purple Heart for dying. Well, this is your purple heart for having lived. I hope that our daughter finds as wonderful and as beautiful a first love as you were for me. Good-bye — Hello — Nancy.” Taken from Homiletics Magazine
