Very nicely done.
At my school we have to stand, with our hands behind our backs, looking directly up and forward into the sky for two minutes.
Which is all very fine, except, we do it first thing in the morning, when the sun just happens to be directly situated in the spot where we just happen to look.
Am happy we dont celebrate it here. Just more work for the brain.
Yes, this has been going on for a long time.
wasn't really hard i came up with it pretty fast.
i personally just ranted about what first came to mind
It's "celebrating" the freedom that they fought for and future they gave to us, they are honoured during the one minute silence (which isn't enough in my opinion). I do however find it quite upsetting when people don't respecting, or even caring about what they did for us.
Good Job mate. I still wear a poppy, but to remember, not to celebrate.
Besides in my country, its about alot more. Catholics And Protestants Not having the usual hoo-hah.
How can you remember something you didn't participate in?
So many people die for their countries, if people would stop being so aggresive no of it would be nessisary. I am thankful to the people who do put their lives on the line to stop invasions and war, but thats to everyone not just one single war.
Hmm..its a shame that people in N.I havnt quite grasped that yet.
celebrating can mean simply, observing the day and what it means. We can also celebrate, as said, what these people did for us. I get what you are saying, but sometimes there are other ways to look at things
I had to celebrate at my school.... And i have to wear that flower thing called puppy or something.
