In the US, Veterans' Day is November 11th. If you are not
in the US, I hope that you have a similar celebration sometime in
the year. All veterans deserve to be honored, even former
enemies.
In the US and in many other countries, military service was once
considered to be a virtual rite of passage for young men.
Indeed, at one time a young man who did not choose when and how he
would serve would have the choice made for him by his draft
board. We put our lives on hold for a while to serve our
country. And eventually, the time came when we took off our
uniforms and resumed the lives we had left behind. Coming
back home to a regular life was not as easy for some.
In The Craft, there is much that we can do about this. In
fact, for those of you who know the Arthurian tradition, there is
one particular knight to emulate and perhaps even evoke! Sir
Bors accomplished the wish of every veteran!
Blessed Be!
