Today is Remembrance Day in Canada, the day when we remember the fallen in war. I quote a friend of mine from a discussion over lunch:
Look, it’s at least as important as Easter, or Christmas. I mean, I may not be able to tell you if you’re going to Heaven or Hell, right? But I can sure as Hell tell you we wouldn’t be sitting around talking about this if it weren’t for the people we’re remembering that day.
How very true!! This is the same reason I get a little excited when I hear people haven’t voted – someone lost their life on our behalf to ensure our right to vote and I’m not willing to through that back in their face!
