“Last year, [Pope Francis] was asked about his secret to happiness. He said slow down. Take time off. Live and let live. Don't proselytize. Work for peace. Work at a job that offers basic human dignity. Don't hold on to negative feelings. Move calmly through life.

“A little while ago I visited Omaha Beach for the second time in my life. In the intervening 26 years, nearly 20,000 tides had come and gone and little remains visible of the greatest military landing in man's history of endless warring. What's to be seen is mostly in a superb museum and a panoramic cemetery. The cemetery memorializes with dignity and grandeur the event and the dead, and moves one deeply. Before they die less precipitously and/or in lesser purpose, Americans who can should visit World War II's Normandy Beach. Such seeing and remembering helps a man's perspective.” MenWorldShouldYearsLittlesWarHelpingRememberMovingPurposeDiesGoneSeeingMilitaryEventsPerspectiveDignityRemainsEndlessBeachWar Of The WorldsVisibleMuseumsWorld War IiTidesWorld War IGrandeurLandingCemeterySuperbInterveningNormandyOmahaGreatest MilitaryOmaha Beach Author:Malcolm Forbes
