The next time you visit a cemetery, take a moment to visit "someone" who probably won't get any earthly company. So many people have passed and left only a headstone. A thought for one of them, especially someone who served in a war, I have found to be very grounding. My mother is buried in a military cemetery (she served as a WAVE beginning at the end of WWII) and EVERY headstone there tells a story.
Speaking of stories, I was attempting to attach a lovely picture of Camp Nelson, when I read that Medal of Honor recipient, Private William M. Harris, is also buried there. A member of the 7th U.S. Cavalry, he died at Little Big Horn.
