Combe chaste
If certain individuals have their way, days like today will fade away Daughter. So it is up to you and your generation to fight for the hard won rights that now grace our society. A society that needs to remain as a beacon to people throughout this planet.
Freedom to roam, to enjoy life, to not be persecuted or downtrodden, has always required individuals to battle those who would prefer to take advantage of the less fortunate. So daughter remember this day, take it with you in life as you battle injustice. Championing the less able is a just cause.
Footnote. We need to encourage and support those who care for the downtrodden, for at this time many political leaders seem incapable of understanding compassion.

A sentiment we all need to remember as we live our lives.
Very true, and not always easy to do along with empathy and fairness. Thank you Colline
We’ll always have zipwire stunts to cheer us up
No zip wires needed now, instead I hope to see compassionate leadership
A really good message for us 🙂
Thank you, to be compassionate when in high office is special
A heartfelt plea being passed down the generations. Well done, Michael.
Thank you Sandra, each generation has its own difficulties,
An apt message given the political nature of today, let’s hope our new PM is listening.
I certainly hope that he is, time will tell.
A timely message, hope someone is listening.
Many are aware and work to make society fairer in their locality , but it will take someone special to tackle the global situation
It does need people to champion causes, politicians are often caught up in weightier (in their minds) matters.

Trying to fight that injustice everyday.
Many are aware and do good work to make society fairer in their locality , but it will take someone very special to tackle the global situation. It is good work.
Love this so much, especially the last line! The way you presented the story, from father to daughter is, is very well done! 🙂
Thank you so very much Brenda. Many are aware and work to make society fairer in their locality , but it will take someone special to tackle the global situation
Unfortunately I think we have championed personal achievement and fame over other values such as quiet service for others. Your message is timely and I do hope it will travel!
Undertaking quiet service for others is very special, Many are aware of this and work to make society fairer in their locality. But how to tackle the whole world ?
A good story and well written, Michael. Many living today haven’t lived through the terrible things that have happened in the not too distant past so don’t understand what many have gone through. Some help others in need as they have more empathy. Sadly, some seem to have none at all. —- Suzanne

We can’t afford complacency. Everyone must participate if we are to maintain what we have. I like how your story encapsulates not only these truths, but also the importance of ensuring the right attitudes are handed down to each generation.
You are so right, thankfully many individuals are aware and work to make society fairer in their locality , but it will take someone special to tackle the global situation
