† 67 [video]

Eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month-Yesterday was very peaceful, wasn't it? After the world wars, that day became a date for remembrance of the conflict and the armistice for the countries involved; and it became a day to recall the conflicts, the fallen soldiers and the end of all of it. I think it would have been more

...poppies.

[holymadonna]

Yes, dear?

[valentineluke]

Dear!!??

War remembrances automatically make me think of poppy fields.

[innocent endearment she uses with several people.]

Is there any special connection for you?

[cry_reaper]

Yesterday was a holiday?

[holymadonna]

Armistice Day or Remembrance Day or Veteran's Day. Depending where or when you ask.

[cry_reaper]

It's related to a war?

[holymadonna]

To the first and second world wars.

It's nice to think of a peaceful time. It's hard to remember the fallen when there's violence around us.

[holymadonna]

It is, but there must be always time to pray for them. Even two minutes of silence would be enough. That is the time it takes us to recalling we are striving to achieve peace in the end.

[witheringlily]

That's good to remember. Especially when someone feels vengeful.

Those whose heart are filled with hurt feelings should have this more present than ever.
