ANZAC DAY 2024
IN COMMEMORATION
From Oakwood
25 April 2024
It's a sad day for me for missing my attendance on this solemn day. But my heart and thoughts are for all the fallens and for my country, Australia 🇦🇺.
TRIBUTES:
Everything here is lifted from FB/META
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
Today, on Anzac Day, we come together to pay tribute to those who have served and sacrificed for our country. Their courage and selflessness will forever be remembered.
Lest we forget.

"Learn to preserve yourself, not to open your heart to just anyone, not to listen to superficial judgments. Have conviction of all that you are capable of, and above all, put an end to everything that takes away your peace."

Bruce Coville - Love inside you
“Nothing you love is lost. Not really. Things, people—they always go away, sooner or later. You can’t hold them, any more than you can hold moonlight. But if they’ve touched you, if they’re inside you, then they’re still yours. The only things you ever really have are the ones you hold inside your heart.”
~Bruce Coville
