Millions protest senseless war in Toronto, Canada and in towns & cities all around our crying world.
Are you listening?
"And the newborn cocked his iridescent head.
He cocked his head and listened
to the wretched cries of humanity"
................Phoenix Rising,
by Mary Summer Rain
I am one of millions
of people throughout our world
who
hate
the American-led war in Iraq.
PEACE
NOW!
Here are photos of two power-hungry,
controlling fundamentalists.
It is clear to me
that they are both determined
to have their own way
and could care less how they are breaking the hearts
of myself and millions of others
all around our world
who pray
for
PEACE
NOW.
I pray for Messrs. Bush and Hussein that they may wake up
and listen to the wisdom of the people
who protest this ugly senseless war.
"The Earth rumbled
beneath
the surface of the land.
It rumbled with the strained contractions
of the
Earth Mother's
new labour."
.................Phoenix Rising, Mary Summer Rain
I pray for our beautiful earth that is being bombarded;
she is wounded and in severe pain.
"There is a criterion by which
you can judge
whether
the thoughts you are thinking
and the things you are doing
are right for you.
The criterion is:
Have they brought you
inner peace?
If they have not,
there is something wrong with them
---so keep seeking!
If what you do has brought you
inner peace,
stay with what you believe is right.
.....Peace Pilgrim,
her life and work in her own words.
"Let there be peace on earth
and
let it begin with me."
"He who lives by the sword
shall
die by the sword"
PRAY FOR PEACE
My mother taught me that
"two wrongs never make a right"
Last night I dreamed
of peace.
I saw my little terrier,
Dudley
beside a lovely grey cat.
They were both asleep.
They were instinctive
enemies
who found that
they could
care for each other
and live
in
peace.
I pray my dream
will soon
be a reality
and we will all celebrate
Peace on Earth
WAR IS WRONG
