We live in a world where savage behavior is considered cool and songs, books, movies, Ebooks, posters, plays, and more make the message clear and the performers wealthy for displaying acts of savagery while acts of kindness have ACTUALLY been known to inspire it! KIND FOLKS ARE FREQUENT VICTIMS!
THIS MUST CHANGE! LET’S BEGIN TODAY!
WORLD PEACE BEGINS WITH YOU! SHARE THIS MESSAGE!

My mind can only know so much.
It is only when my heart and soul are fed
that I am forever changed.

Cool air of morning
quickly warming – sun rises
blossoming of Spring

on a frigid day
do not raise the temperature.
But instead,
make me indifferent to it!

Love is not a word to translate
But rather the joining of two hearts,
Two souls as one.
It transcends all differences,
For they become blessings.
If we believe in Love,
We change the world
One heart at a time!

As the choir sang
In my personal sanctuary
I heard the last bits of the rains of yesterday
Drip from the roof deck above.
Tiny bits of pollen in the air
Caused an itch
Or the occasional twitch,
But brought as well a reminder
Of the coming of spring.
It won’t be long, now.

I sit here seeing only ruin around me and being unable to climb out of its vastness and praying somehow His purpose in it will come to fruition. I realize I may not see His purpose but there is peace to be found in knowing He uses all things. As I did a bit of reading just now, this quote came to me:
– Anonymous –
It seems in life there are times when we, or I, are called to be the compost nourishing the seeds from which tomorrow’s flowers grow. These times can be uncomfortable and even painful, but if it blesses the Lord, it is good.
A new season is coming and the flowers will bloom!
The pieces will all come together. He will see to it.
(quilt is my work)
