Always Remembering.....

As is evident from the lack of blogging over the past few weeks, I am swamped with travel and project responsibilities. I expect a more normal routine and pace to commence again next week.

Today finds me in Ottawa and I write this at my hotel, about ready to head off to Toronto. Coming from my meetings today, I walked past the National War Memorial and stopped for a moment, struck by a uniformed soldier who also there in an obvious moment of personal reflection and contemplation. I can only speculate as to what prompted his reflection as it was inappropriate to interrupt. However, observing him reminded me that remembering is not something that should be reserved for November 11th - every day our soldiers stand on the front line and defend our country.
