Happy Solstice Time.....may the return of the light greet us with love and direction for 2009.

The song below holds potent energy .... during this time of rebirth....remember, peace is not just the absence of war, but a place inside each of us which if we access and give back to the universe we contribute to the energy flow of Peace and Love....In the same breath, the end of war is not just the end of bombs falling....but a place inside each of us where we consciously choose to be kind to each other, to be tolerant of differences and share this energy with all things we come into contact with...the plants, the animals the 2-legged.... I wish each and all a blessed new year. (there will not be posting for about 5 days......please check back in)

If Every Woman in the World

If every woman in the world had her mind set on freedom,
If every woman in the world dreamed a sweet dream of peace,
If every woman of every nation, young and old, each generation, held her hands out in the name of love
There would be no more war.

If every man in the world had his mind set on freedom,
If every brother stood with brother as a witness for peace,
If every man of every nation, young and old, each generation, held his hands out in the name of love
There would be no more war.

If every leader in the world, shared a vision of freedom,
If every leader in the world shared a sweet dream of peace,
If every leader of every nation, worked for justice and liberation, holding hands out in the name of love
There would be no more war.

If every nation in the world, set a true course for freedom,
If every nation raised its children in a culture of peace,
If all our sons and all our daughters reached in friendship across the waters, refusing to be enemies
There would be no more war.
