Lest We Forget - Armistice Day 2015

Hi!!!

How are you all today? How has your week been so far? Since today is Armistice Day, I thought I'd put together a little post for you all to read.

On the 11th of November 1918, the First World War ended officially and with that came the end of years of conflict and casualties and deaths. Since that time, on the original Armistice Day, many other conflicts have taken place and they are all the reason (from the First World War to more recent conflicts) that we should participate in the two minute silence at 11am today - to commemorate the ending of conflicts, to remember the service men and women who died for their country or who were injured fighting for their country, who had to put their lives on hold to go and fight for their country, those who struggled to adjust to life after conflicts and of course the families and friends who were affected by war, too.
 
Thank you for reading, I will speak to you guys later in the week.
What do Remembrance celebrations mean to you? Do you have any comments or suggestions for future posts? Let me know in the comments below.
See you soon!
 
Have a wonderful day!
