Lest we forget
Most of us have so much to be thankful for, even in difficult times, and it is so important to remember the reason we can be thankful. So many men and women have died (or suffered major injury, both mental and physical) in so many wars, so that the rest of us can live in peace, in freedom. So many people will continue to lose their life, fighting for this freedom. I thank them, and their families, who willingly pay the price in all sorts of ways. They deserve our thanks, not just on November 11th each year, but each and every day.
"Remembrance Day is observed on 11 November to recall the official end of World War I on that date in 1918, as the major hostilities of World War I were formally ended "at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month" of 1918 with the German signing of the Armistice.
The day was specifically dedicated by King George V, on 7 November 1919, to the observance of members of the armed forces who were killed during World War I.
The red poppy has become a familiar emblem of Remembrance Day due to the poem In Flanders Fields. These poppies bloomed across some of the worst battlefields of Flanders in World War I, their brilliant red colour an appropriate symbol for the blood spilt in the war."
