Paragraph Bottom Right of Div - html

Question

I have two divs that each have a paragraph link at the bottom right of the div. When I add the code bottom: 0; position: absolute;, it pulls both the links together into the far right div instead of keeping them in their own divs. How can I set this so that the link stays inside of it's own container at the bottom right corner?
.header-unit {
height: 300px;
position: relative;
margin-top: 5px;
background-size: cover;
background-position: center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-image: url("/images/liberty.jpg");
}
#messageContainer {
margin-left: 200px;
/* padding-top: 450px; */
position: relative;
display: inline-block;
}
h1 {
font-family: 'Montserrat', sans-serif;
font-size: 2em;
line-height: 1.15;
text-transform: uppercase;
}
#knowledge,
#practice {
padding: 25px;
width: 350px;
height: 300px;
display: block;

}
.linksect {
bottom: 0;
right: 25px;
position: absolute;
}
#knowledge {

Answer 1

You can provide context for position:absolute by adding a non-static position property to the ancestor element you want the absolutely positioned element to be relative to. position:relative is usually a good choice because it keeps your element in the document flow. (Note that I added it to the #knowledge,#practice rule.)
.header-unit {
height: 300px;
position: relative;
margin-top: 5px;
background-size: cover;
background-position: center;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-image: url("/images/liberty.jpg");
}
#messageContainer {
margin-left: 200px;
/* padding-top: 450px; */
position: relative;
display: inline-block;
}

.linksect {
