Remembrance

Dad on the way to Remembrance Day Parade in Liverpool 2004.
Last one.
The war was a big part of his life.  And ours.
Generational trauma, we all have it.
Tough lessons.
Learning to be gentle when every fibre of your body is conditioned to fight, to survive.
Blessed be for all on that path, and for those denied the luxury of that choice.
The sublime Maya Angelou, wisdom for these times.
