Peace has to be created, in order to be maintained. It is the product of Faith, Strength, Energy, Will, Sympathy, Justice, Imagination, and the triumph of principle. It will never be achieved by passivity and quietism.

Yes, it's beautiful. I'm adding my voice here, as I did at Bindi's, to a prayer for peace!
ReplyDeletePeace for us all.

Oh, excuse me for egnoring your post, but I just want to say "Hi Kylie!" And dippy, you forgot to leave the message on Cece's blog! Slacker.
ReplyDeleteP.S. You made me laugh way too hard this morning. Thank you!
And no, I'm not supposed to be blogging.
ReplyDeleteOkay, knock it off!!! You're killing me on after Peace Day!
ReplyDeleteinteresting. I don't have anything more to say. But I hope you are doing well.
ReplyDeleteAre you done? You killed me today! I was on my way to feed the ferals and started laughing on the freeway and couldn't stop. You are too funny. Thank you for this one honey. You're the best and I love you.

Hi baby I need a prayer for a young girl. I don't know her name, but there was an Amber Alert issued a few hours ago for a child abduction. It's a 5 or 6 county alert, but unbelievably, the police helocopters are over our neighborhood. It's almost midnight and they aren't leaving. They keep giving the description of the car and the two men who abducted the young girl. It's absolutely frightening. I can only imagine what that poor child is going through. I've worked on murder, rape and molestation appeals with Rob, so I'm under no illusions about what happens. Please pray for her safe return. And please also pray that if she survives, she eventually find joy again.
ReplyDeleteMuch love,
Me
i'll think for a little bit and post later
