I feel like a midget standing beside giants when I think of the people who lived through the six years of World War Two.
It started 70 years ago today.
I’ve never fought in a war. No one has ever dropped a bomb on my house. None of my immediate family has ever been killed or injured in an armed conflict. I’ve never had to contend with the idea that a foreign power wanted to invade my country. I’ve never lived through rationing. I’ve never had to go into a bomb shelter.
To all you wonderful people who endured all of this and more, thank you.
Thanks for not giving up, for hoping, for enduring.
We live in a better world today because of you.
Amen to that Neil.
Love this song. It moves me to tears every time. Good tears. Tears of gratitude.
Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the comment, Diane 🙂
They were an amazing generation!
