remember peace

It’s Remembrance Day here, and the weather matches the sad occasion. Each year on this day, I reluctantly acknowledge this day, understanding the sacrifices made by so many soldiers in wars. I am sad for the millions of innocent lives lost and hurt by greedy leaders who themselves are never armed and harmed. Yet each year, I am more and more angry that history repeats itself and there seems to be no learning the lesson of peace, of non-violent communication.

Please visit last year’s post, my favourite of several written over a few years of blogging. I love the comments.
