Hamino Title Raffle - November 2020

𑁍 hello hello hamino! 𑁍

it’s the opposite of the colour red here with the monthly raffle.

with halloween done (sobs), we’re all awaiting the snow and christmas. however, we’re not quite there yet! november is not considered as a stand-out month but there are some things to do during it. :)

// the theme?

you’re probably wondering why there’s so ma n y poppies on this raffle. so, what exactly do those poppies represent? Remembrance Day.

𑁍 celebrated on November 11th, it is a memorial day celebrated in certain countries that are part of the Commonwealth (including Canada, Australia, United Kingdom, etc.) the tradition started during World War I as a way to honour armed forces that died while fighting for our countries.

𑁍 the reason why people wear poppy flowers on Remembrance Day is because of a certain poem written by John McCrae, a doctor who served in the military. the poem, titled “Flanders Fields”, describes the poppies growing in the graveyards of fallen soldiers and the only flower to grow on battlefields.

so, what can you do during Remembrance Day?

- to show your of this holiday, you can purchase a red poppy pin, which you can place on your clothing. if you do buy one, place it on the left, close to your heart.

- you can also participate in the nationwide two minutes of silence. at 11 am on Remembrance Day, people take two minutes of no sound to the sacrifices of fallen soldiers and armed forces.
