Armenian Genocide – 1915 to 2009 – Light up your candle…

3,325 views

Each year on this day, we pause to remember the victims of one of the greatest tragedies of the 20th century, when as many as 1.5 million Armenians lost their lives in the final years of the Ottoman Empire, many of them victims of mass killings and forced exile. We join our fellow Americans and Armenian people around the world in commemorating this tragedy and honoring the memory of the innocent lives that were taken. The world must never forget this painful chapter of its history – Written by karine
Light up your candle in memory of Armenian Genocide victims. Include your name and your message (please DO NOT curse).

    My CandleThe memory of the millions lost and the love of millions more who have lost them, will live on forever in the minds and hearts of us for as long as we exist. My prayers are always with our people, and our dedication is to the justice which will come our way. God Bless us all, every Armenian.

    My Candlethe Armenians went through a lot but the strength that we have is unmatchable. I lived though this tough time and can say that it was not right what they did to our people.

    My CandleAs every year on this day we remember the genocide. What can we all learn about this? At first, we learn that it is not good to kill. It leads to nothing and it only causes tears. Secondly we learn to forgive. Although it all was not right at that time we now have to forgive each other.
    Third we learn, that no one is right and that there always is a new way. This new way always leads to life, not death. God have shown us how. We just have to follow His way!
    Love as you love yourself! Live in peace and keep remembering. No more genocides.

God bless our people…turks are going to pay for Armenian Genocide… Because life is like that. When you do something bad to someone, then something bad happens to you. Turks did that horrible Genocide to Armenian people and someday their generations will feel the same pain that we feel now, no matter from what….

  101. Kourtney says:

    My Candlelets gather this one moment and have a moment of silents.
    the GENOCIDE WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN!
    It was a genocide, something this world cant hide,
    Even though they constantly deny,
    The Turks are living a big lie.
    Rewind back to 1915,
    Something Im so thankful I didnt witness and see.
    But, I can feel the pressure in me,
    I lost a big part of my family to be.
    We werent strong back then,
    Let them try to pull another war again.
    What? Is the world too blind to see?
    Everything the Turks have done to my Armenian family and me?
    Until this very same day,
    I cant believe how theyve always turned us away,
    And, I know as they say, there will come a better day.
    But, its been almost 100 years since the genocide,
    And, the facts their trying to bury, we are making it hard to hide.
    Armenian Genocide it was on 1915,
    Do a lil research, youll understand why our wounds still bleed.
    And, they keep ripping deeper until this world does recognize,
    That in 1915, the Turks committed the Armenian Genocide.
