We need more thoughtful, inspiring people like MLK these days.

i loved and respected mlk, but those days are over imo.  it's a different world now and words just don't cut it.  there is only one thing these people understand unfortunately.  it's a terrible, terrible thing the world is living through.

"Let the rain come and wash away

the ancient grudges, the bitter hatreds

held and nurtured over generations.

Let the rain wash away the memory

of the hurt, the neglect.

Then let the sun come out and

fill the sky with rainbows.

Let the warmth of the sun heal us

wherever we are broken.

Let it burn away the fog so that

we can see each other clearly.

So that we can see beyond labels,

beyond accents, gender or skin color.

Let the warmth and brightness

of the sun melt our selfishness.

So that we can share the joys and

feel the sorrows of our neighbors.

And let the light of the sun

be so strong that we will see all

people as our neighbors.

Let the earth, nourished by rain,

bring forth flowers

to surround us with beauty.

And let the mountains teach our hearts

to reach upward to heaven."

A Prayer for the World

- Rabbi Harold Kushner

[Moonchilde]

May there be peace in heaven, may there be peace in the skies,

May there be peace on earth, may there be peace in the waters,

May there be peace in the plants, may there be peace in the trees,

May we find peace in all the divine powers, may we find peace in the supreme Lord.

Peace. Shanti, Shanti, Shanti.

I need to express my agreement in this regard. 

These are people who don't give a fig for anything but their violent and deadly agenda.  There are numerous "things" which must be cosidered and acted upon.  Without this, we are no more.  My daughter's FB page is full of love and peace and questions about why this has to keep happening.  The soluton is not on her FB page, with all due respect.
