11.11 least we forget

'In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the Dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:
To you from failing hands we throw
The torch; be yours to hold it high.
If ye break faith with us who die
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields.'

 

I can't believe i have only just got around to writing this blog and even more so i cant believe that i nearly didnt manage to get it done at all today. 11.11. You need to have a hard and cold heart not to be moved on  this day.... 

Today is the day that we honour our fallen 'least we forget' for without them we would not be here, there would not be a country there wouldnt be anything, they; with almightly courage stood on the front line and looked death in the eye.  The stood for all of us, they stood for HOPE, COURAGE, LOVE, PEACE... we are to be enternally grateful.

I hope that the fallen can stand next to God with their heads held high with pride, just like the soldiers coming back from war. For they may not be there in the pshyical world...but instead did pay the highest of all prices. This is actually something i get all emotional writing about and then i start getting angry that theres a need for war and fighting in the first place.

All soldiers whenever they battled, even the ones on the front line right now... the ones God couldnt save, the saved and the wounded...our country salutes you. THANK YOU for giving us a world to raise our children in, for teaching lives purpose at the expense of your own. There is no one at all braver than you and not enough recognition is given for all the fallen... Hopefully that will change now...i hope that will change. 

You will never be forgotten, you will live on in our heart, lives and everything we see feel and touch for the rest of our lives.

You are the wind, you are the rain, You are the sun... with a newborn babies cry we will thank god for you and thank you for letting this beautiful person come onto the earth.  

You are the ultimate ...
