i just heard a man on television say that "we'll never have world peace until we have national peace and we'll never have national peace until we have community peace and family peace"..........so simple, yet so very difficult to achieve.......let's start small and wish/pray for family peace for 2007.....love, pat

"Wishing" and "praying" alone won't get it. We all have to WORK at it.

"Let there be peace on Earth [b]and let it begin with me."[b]

Sept took my words, exactly, may there be peace and let it begin with me. Wow, something to think about. Does this mean forgiveness and amends?

You would think, wouldn't you? Can't think of a thing I'd have to ask your forgiveness for. Is there something, WW? I'd sure like to know. Likewise, I have nothing to forgive you for. /\/\/\/\/  Wow! /\/\/\/\/

Sept, I just saw your post. You have nothing to do with my question, other then it was cool to see similar words. No, for me it was that I can be the instrument of peace. I called the mother yesterday and we spoke as though we were merely acquaintances. I made sure there was peace and she stayed positive. She is very frail and pitiful and really does not understand the entirety of her actions. I also found out that my sibs all have degenerative disk disease. That was a mind opener. It was ok to speak with her and see who we are now.

and i absolutely killed my mean sister with kindness this morning. she is baffled and that is a good thing because then she has less time to think about being so critical of her nieces and nephews......(i'm not entirely sure to be proud of it...but i feel good)

i'm going to try to do something, sincere, every day or so to improve relations all around...........xoxoxo pat
