ANZAC Day thoughts...
After browsing many Twitter posts about ANZAC Day,
I have come to the conclusion that today has emerged into something ultra-special...
Traditional celebrations may be non-existent...
Perhaps that is good...
For there has been a HUGE injection of spirit
creative spirit
into the day.
Suddenly there is a public demonstration of personal connections with the day,
personal values of the day.
Perhaps we needed this ultra-special time
to appreciate what this day is really all about...

a real Anzac Day story...
Anzac Day 2020 - dawn light over the front balcony of my grandson's townhouse in Wollongong...
When my daughter sent me the above image from her son's home,
she told me that she forgot to tell me the following story (related to the last post here)...
When we stood out the front, an old fella across the road stood quietly with his candle.
He had medals on his jacket.
We could hear two trumpets playing the Last Post.
One was from in the centre of town, which was clear.
Then a neighbour, a few streets away to our right, played a rusty rendition of the same.
A number of families did the same as us in town.
I was so glad we were standing with our candles when the old fella came out.
We faced him holding our candles
without a word...
ANZAC Day Dawn...
ANZAC DAY dawns...
And this driveway in NSW glows with candlelight...
My daughter and her little family are there
remembering
the ANZACS
Lest We Forget
NOTE: This is the first time since 1919 (Spanish flu) that there is no dawn service on ANZAC Day...
