I spent some time the other day . .
looking for my poppy photo from the summer. .
and then a bit more time. .
while I played with the script and adding in the poem. .
line by line. ..
thinking.
It was good to think about those that died that we might have the freedom we cherish so much.
I thought about my grandfather who was inscripted into an army. .
and then the decision he made to leave that land so that he could live in peace. . .
and worship in freedom ..
the faith he believed was worth giving up all that he had accumulated.
the faith he believed was worth giving up all that he had accumulated.
We have much to be thankful for in this land.
I wonder if those that are busy "occupying" today ..
will give thought to their privilege in having a right to protest.
all for now. .
Remembering with you!

ReplyDeleteLovely post!
ReplyDeleteWell said, Lovella.
ReplyDeleteVery well said! I wondered those some of those same thoughts today. Wishing you a good weekend!
ReplyDeleteI was thinking the same thing this morning, Lovella. I'm sure the veterans wouldn't begrudge the 'occupiers' their freedom to protest, but I wonder if they'd find it worthy of their sacrifice.
ReplyDeleteSmukt.
