Charlie Mackesy has just released his sequel to his inspirational offerings of wisdom in The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse. His newest words of truth are to be found in The Boy, the Mole, the Fox, the Horse and the Storm. An initial read highlights several well-to-be-remembered quotes.
One quite applicable quote to recall as we celebrate November 11th is:
“Whatever happens if I lose you?
We are forever even if I’m not here,”
said the Horse.
November 11th is rightfully called Remembrance Day, a day to give thanks for those who have given their lives or, in some ways, a portion of their quality of life to preserve our freedoms.
May we take time to remember these veterans with gratitude, to honor their courage, and to carry forward their legacy of peace, hope, and love. The very qualities Mackesy so beautifully reminds us to cherish through his words and whimsical drawings.
