Remembrance Day 11.11.11

red poppies

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old:
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
~ Laurence Binyon

I am grateful for the sacrifices made by so many so that I may live with freedom.

May we continue to remember the sacrifices made for us. May we bring hOMe safely, the brave men and women still so far from their families protecting our freedom. May the sun set on a time where we solve differences with violence. May we learn to create a global community that resolves conflict with respectful words and compassionate listening. May all beings live in peace.
