It's so sad that so many, beautiful men had to die. Always someone's child,brother,father or sweetheart....And on this Rememberance Day let's hope that we all learn and understand the deep sadness of violence and war.
i kept my silence at 11 am
with my heartbeat in my ears to keep me company I thought of all the ones that had ceased beating to give us all this chance to live
xoxoxo

Hugs,
