Oh Pedro, a victim of hatred and gunplay
Your life tragically taken away
Safety and security was hard to find
But your memory to us through time binds
Your legacy of love will never die
As we remember you with a heavy sigh

Coral tree blossom are always beautiful, but this one is special. Some years back I found some seeds near the grave of a much loved choir master
I took them home and germinated them. 2 survived to be planted
This is the first flower
#seeds #coraltree #flowers #rememberance

We mourn those who died in the night
In a boat capsized on the sea.
Such a tragedy and a fright,
No one could foresee.

The sorrows of friends are deep,
Their lives forever changed,
Where old joys and dreams once did creep,
Now only sadness remains.

An ode of solemn remembrance
For those laid to rest.
A tribute to the brave and valiant
We honor them with zest.

Die Paffenholz ist noch nicht drauf gekommen, dass es diese Kombination (G zu imitieren und dann H-Vergleich) ist, die unter aller Sau ist. Sie meint, er darf heute am #Holocaust #rememberance day bestimmte Worte nicht benutzen. Daher ist ihre Kritik verkürzt.

Today I am attending the inaugural meeting for an association for the people that were labeled with black 🖤 🐈‍⬛ or 💚 green 🍏 chevron in the Nazi concentration camp system. I am joining because I am working on rememberance issues since many years. Second I have a relevate who was arrested and tormented in #Sachsenhausen. Third I am highly interested in #Flossenbürg because other relevates lived near a regional lager, the KZ #Königsstein, where they tried to increase the coal liquefaction deep down in the mountains, a Mordor, hard work, many died. The camp was surrounded with an electric ⚡ fence. The aim of the #Nazis was to kill these people with #work.

After war, after the Hitler system was ended by the allied forces, Bavaria continued to concentrate people because they meant there were "Asozial" (a Nazi word) and "born criminals" (think about the biologism in that). Prostitutes were also affected by this inhuman ways of thinking.

So I am happy to go to this inaugural meeting. There is growing something new. A good time some days before the 27.1. day of liberation of #Auschwitz and so day of the main rememberance celebrations. This year in Bundestag they mention the persecution in the name of sexual issues (pink chevron ,💗 🎠).

I am sure today we also add a fruitful new view on the tormenting #rememberance multitude.

I blogged about all of that earlier: (GERMAN) https://kriegsmue.de/?p=529

We remember Lisa Marie Presley
The singer and actress with such finesse
The kindness in her heart
The songs that were a start
To show her many strengths and impress

4/4 - And #OurCommonEnd (voiced by @MariKattman): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QXwVz6anBUY

I feel, the lyrics are rooted in #humanism, we don't start out with the same chances or opportunities, but we all have one thing in common.

3/4 - Also, a poem I wrote voiced by #DirkDeWachter "Becoming Human": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6B2zev-tMKY

As it refers to #humanism & it's a #prayer for the #atheist I think. We can still remember, by remembering, they "live on".

2/4 - I'd say, for sure, include @dragonage's "In Uthenera" by @InonZur and #AubreyAshburn: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJiyivcQb1k

It has a profound effect on me as it talks about the people going through it, not the gods or religions.

Today's December 6th.
Today is #National #Day of #Rememberance & #Action for #Violence #Against #Women here in #Canada

33 yrs ago a #gunman went into #EcolePolytechnique & singlehandedly #massacred #Fourteen #women, merely because they were women studying STEM.

I lost a good friend that day & every year it hits me hard.

For years that was Canada's worst mass murder until 2020 incident. Canada rarely ever sees mass shootings.

Love u & miss u Anne-Marie. I'm sorry I couldn't protect u.

Close to the #medieval #trading #route between #Wismar and #Lübeck near Grevesmühlen, on a part that today is a single track byroad, a #merchant from Wismar was #waylaid and murdered in the year 1391 A.D..

At the spot a #rememberance #stone was put up afterwards.

If it was part of a sentence and fine imposed on the robbers or done by the family of the victim is unclear.

The stone commemorating the merchant named Ludeke Morzellenburch is still there.

We visited Omaha Beach, Normandy, France, this year for D-Day 78.

Hard to believe that in such a beautiful and quiet place, so much horror and suffering but also greatest bravery happened. People from all walks of life fought together against absolute evil.
