“Without courage, all others virtues lose their meaning.” – Winston Churchill

 

I thought that this quote was appropriate for Remembrance 🌺Day.  For our American followers, Remembrance Day is the UK’s equivalent to our Veterans Day.  Except, that the British do it a hell of a lot better than we do.  

I’ve been in the UK  for 4 Remembrance Day’s and what I love ❤️ the most are the Commemorative Poppies.  A lot, if not most citizens wear a small pin poppy 🌺 on their coat, blazer or sweater; I have one on my winter coat, and wear it proudly.  In addition, all the cathedrals and churches ⛪️ have poppies and crosses on their lawns commemorating all their fallen soldiers.  At the Tower Of London, the poppies are a sea of red, and look beautiful.  I love the way the UK honors their veterans, retired soldiers and military personnel.  

 

Our fallen soldiers were the most courageous, and in the US  & UK we honor those who gave the ultimate sacrafice  for our freedom.  In the US 🇺🇸 with our Veteran’s Day on the 11th , and in the UK 🇬🇧 it is on the 8th of November.  Regardless of what side of the pond you live on, let’s all take a moment to thank those individuals and their families for their ulitimate sacrifice.

Stay safe, and remember, if you leave your place, cover your face 😷.
