- An eye for eye only ends up making the whole world blind. ~Mahatma Gandhi

I can hear it too, Nathan, and it is wonderful.
Also, as a Doctor Who fan, I keep glancing at the title of this page in my Firefox tab and wondering when I clicked a link for Donna Noble Placemats.

Lees last blog post..Dona Nobis Pacem: An Open Letter to Lilly
Dear Immi,
Thanks for the thoughts of peace. Hopefully, with Obama in charge, we can go back to a policy of negotiation rather than war or threats of war. I am so relieved because I have a 19-year-old son.
Susan
Wellness Writers last blog post..A Feel-Good Story
Thanks Raven
I’m glad you l ike the quotes too, Lux and shannon and Lee!
Susan, I hope so too. I can’t imagine how stressful that would be lately with a 19 year old son, but I’m glad there’s hope he won’t have to go to war now!
Excellent quotes. Thanks for sharing them.

Thanks, Polar!
Wonderful quotes and post, Immi. I so wanted to blog for peace but I am just running out of time and words. Brain cells are at a premium now, too.
I do pray for peace. Nothing could be better.
Hugs,
Tamara
Tamara – Pray for peace and work for peace in your life. Far more important than blogging about it, and it’s enough.
I can so relate to the brain cells being at a premium LOL I actually wrote this post weeks ago when I was on a hypomanic tear. If I’d had to do it this morning, it wouldn’t have happened either. So there you go, my secret is out. Eeeeek — Not!
beautiful globe and wonderful quotes
