Pro Peace for sure ...

"I was once asked why I don't participate in anti-war demonstrations. I said that I will never do that, but as soon as you have a pro-peace rally, I'll be there." -- Mother Theresa

It says so much in such a simple statement. Anti any thing is a negative approach. Pro Peace is such a wonderful thought. Especially if you take it out of context "Pro Peace". A professional at peace. There needs to be many more Mother Theresas in this world. The mind set you'd have to develop, it would be so refreshing. At least to me.

But Just a pro peace rally. Why hasn't it ever happened? I can't think of one. Sop I googled Pro peace. I wasn't surprised by the results:

* Someone selling Pro peace Bumper stickers are Bumper Stickers actually against Our President Bush.

* Then there is the website devoted to naming THE ANTI-WAR PRO-PEACE CANDIDATES. Apparently they never heard of Mother Theresa.

* A site promoting A global calendar of pro-peace and anti-racism protests, meetings, benefits, and conferences. Yet, you get into the site past the cute label and its all about Major Upcoming Anti-War Protests - Upcoming Anti-War & Anti-Racism Events. It might have a chance if Only they too had heard of Mother Theresa.

After that there is a lot of talk about Conflict Israel Faces and the peace sign, then it just starts getting weird.

Nothing about a real Pro Peace Rally, The Kind that Mother Theresa would have gone to.

Too Bad.

A response to Crystal ...

You asked that I do not dwell on the negative forces that I brought forth in the post of the 12 year old girl and her passing.

I understand fully where you are coming from Crystal. Basically my whole spiritual Journey has been fighting against the negative forces present in this Earthly Realm. I do not mean to give them any more power or substance. I want this planet to be free of them, forever.

But I also understand just how much negativity there is in this world. It unfortunately is pervasive and rampant. It is a sickness that really needs a cure. What each and every soul on this Earth needs to do is rise up against the negative forces in their life. They need to promote the positivity they posses. They need to seek the beauty with in them and all those around them.

I realize that at times it is easy to wallow in your sadness and sorrow. That the world is at odds against you and that things will not get better. That is when you really need to dig deep and realize that there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

Things will Improve.
Be Positive.
Overcome the negativity.
Gain some faith.
Realize all the Good that is present in this World.

I don't understand

"The body of a missing 12-year-old whose uncle allegedly planned to force her into a sex ring the day she disappeared was found Wednesday in Randolph, not far from his house.

State Police Director Col. James Baker said Brooke Bennett's body was found about 4:45 p.m. and her family had been notified."

Mans Inhumanity to man. It's rampant and pervasive. Granted, Brooke's Ordeal is horrific. So many times though, Man inhumanity to man is reported regularly in the news. How much of this kind of news do we not hear about? How many Booke's and others are dismissed as so much ... what? A Toy? I can't even get my mind around this sort of thing.

Then there is the fact that it was family. An Uncle and a father-in-law. Granted, they are innocent until proven guilty in American Justice. But you have a 14 year old girl that had already gone through what this 12 year old went through and managed to survive.

Apparently this very medium, The Internet, was used to a great degree in the demise of this very young lady. This wonder of technology and a great benefit to mankind can and is used to degrade humans and apparently used to help kill, or at the least rape and mutilate another of God's special creatures.

It is really sad that in the year 2008 we are still dealing with this sort of thing. I guess mankind's inhumanity to man will survive forever. It will always be a reminder of what we are capable of if allowed to degrade and abuse our fellow man enough.

God Help us all.
