Looking back on Anzac Day we reflect on the sacrifices made by others for our freedom.
Nothing compares to the bravery and ultimate sacrifice those people made!
And each year we rightly stand and honour their selfless commitment to liberty!

So too should we honour sacrifice in every day life...whether it is our own or that made by others!

In no way can there ever be a comparison between todays lifestyle and the atrocities experienced by the men and women of the first world war.

Yet there is still much in life that we all sacrifice at some stage or other, for the sake of those we love and the life we cherish.

Whether you are a parent, carer, employer, employee or devoted partner in a relationship, there are times when you set aside your own desires to nurture the needs of others. And this is something to be celebrated!

Take some time today to consider how you and those around you contribute to ensuring a better lifestyle for others. Celebrate the selflessness that comes from such motivation! Be grateful to those who offer their own sacrifices for your betterment and be proud of the achievements you make in regard to nurturing family and humanity.

Continuing on in the tradition of the Anzacs, stand proud and continue to fight for the freedom of all who live now and will continue to live into the future.

Honour the sacrifices made that make our lives great! We are the lucky ones!

What better way to acknowledge the actions of others than by honouring an every-day hero via the link below:
