1915

He lied about his age.
He was young and full of life.
The only boy of a farming family.
He was the baby.
He went.

He never came home.


Letters were written from France.
They would have been cherished.

The boy never came home to
be cherished in their place.

He never got married.
Never had children.
Never lived beyond his teens.


November 11th is
Remembrance Day in Canada.
May we all remember those who
went to fight for our freedoms.
For our liberties.

May we pray for those who
are fighting and defending even now.

May we always be thankful.
May we never forget.

Many Blessings,
Camille

Lest We Forget...

This music video was inspired by a true event. A Pittance of Time is one man's plea for us all to remember those that have fought for the freedoms we enjoy. Take a moment to reflect and thank God for those who have fallen. November 11th...May We Remember Them!

**Disclaimer ~ I am not familiar with this artist's work other than this piece...I am not "endorsing" him or his music, but I do feel that the message he portrays in this song is particularly appropriate for each one of us on this day.
