Remembrance Day !!
~
Wherever you are in Toronto
on November 11th at 11am,
take the time and observe
a moment of reflection for
the men and women that help
to preserve our way of life
as well as freedoms of allies throughout the world.
Remembrance Day is not just about people
from wars of the past.
It's about men and women of our communities
that have made ultimate sacrifices for the greater good.
It is also about appreciation for the work
that they do today and every day
to ensure that we all enjoy
the special life we all have in Canada
Thank you all !!

Lovely post, Nerina. I learned something new today. Veterans Days here in the U.S. was originally called Armistice Day (which I knew that) but what I didn't know was at 11 o'clock we also were/are to stop and remember those who have sacrificed for us. So at 11 o'clock I shall do that.
ReplyDeleteThank you for stopping by today! I've missed you!
Hugs,
