I don't know if I really can describe what it is like to be here on Remembrance day. I have learned to appreciate what I have back home so much more now. What do you value? Are you able to be with family and friends? Are loved ones close or I suppose close enough to reach out and touch with a simple phone call? Do you really like your job - come on, it's not that bad. How about going to church every week? What do you do with your free time (every evening, weekend or holiday)? Do you enjoy heading to Tim Hortons for an early morning coffee or afternoon tea with friends. What do you buy with the groceries just because you can? How about health care? How about freedom and safety? Think about it. I did and can say I truly am thankful.
