REMEMBRANCE DAY

This article is dedicated to the guardians that protect us whose dedication, loyalty, and unwavering faith demonstrates the perseverance and resilience of the soul. We honour your faithful service on this Remembrance Day, and beyond.

The leaders of the force are like generals that stand beside their men and women on the front lines, no matter what the terrain or obstacle. The force to these leaders are their family, their roots, what makes them complete and whole. Not only do they stand united in tandem but they stand with those that they are entrusted to protect, by leading by example. They encompass Rudyard Kipling’s noble characteristics of virtue and honour, as individuals who walk with kings while maintaining the common touch, never losing their vision or focus for what is right, just, and true. Their achievements, abilities, and courageous demeanor represents a true warrior spirit who leads by a compassionate nature by placing others needs above one’s own.

The force teaches us that we cannot forget our roots, that the collective consciousness voice is powerful and has worth, and that all are equal, as they unite as one to serve and protect. They remind us to be the change that is required, to stand united not divided, as they are a force of light.

Many officers and soldiers within the force are lightworkers with higher responsibilities. Their specific areas of expertise enables a stronger and safer community. Having been given the monumental task of not only managing life, while dealing with the complexities of work, they sacrifice and dedicate their time to help those in need. Be mindful of the atrocities they have encountered and the images and aspects of life that have impacted them on a profound level.

Please remember, those in uniform are someone’s father, mother, sister, brother, aunt, uncle, cousin, partner, friend, parent and child. We all are united as a collective, and we all need to respect one another. We each have value, worth, our own dreams, visions, and light.

As officers and soldiers, and many citizens know, to be the change that you wish to see, you need to have a purpose, an inner light, something that propels you to be the best version of yourself in every waking moment.

Never lose hope, never be disconnected from what matters the most, and most importantly never lose heart in all matters.

We are all united as one, and with time and patience, no matter what we face as a community, we will always grow to a safer peaceful state. As a collective, we all are working in tandem with one another to achieve peace. We all have one goal in common which is to help humanity as we journey throughout life.

Thank You to all officers and soldiers that selflessly dedicate their lives every day to protect us, fight for our fundamental liberties and freedoms, transform their inner pain into wisdom, selflessly dedicate and sacrifice for the common good, and uphold the law. We honour you this Remembrance Day for all you stand for and do for us as a community. Please know you are always protected, loved, and we value your service and courage to keep all of us safe.
