Understanding can build bridges and connections where as shaming is about destruction of spirit and soul. I think people need to be more sensitive to the plight of others and that their circumstances are sometimes out of their control. We live in a very diverse world where no two people encounter life in an identical way. Opening your heart and mind can go a long way into creating peace both communally and individually. Maybe this is the door to peace?

Flashback Friday “Air Supply – Even The Nights Are Better” #FBF
Something a little vintage from Australia’s own Air Supply. This song crawled in my head as an ear worm so I wanted to share it with you all.

Back In Black (with blue trim) On My Blog!
I am in one of those moods to be a little dark so I changed things again on the blog. Twenty Sixteen is a great theme I have used before that showcases posts and info quite well. You can customize it to be as dark or as light as you want. Part of me is feeling a little “dark and rebellious” so there ya go. Enjoy!

What A Wednesday In The News
It was not a slow news day in the world, at least in the USA and UK. Shootings in Washington DC involving congressmen and at a delivery company location in California. A tragic apartment fire at a high-rise complex killed 12. Not to mention all the stuff we have been hearing about for weeks in politics. Now there are stories that happened everywhere in the world but didn’t get reported for hours today. Our planet is a big place where breaking news happens locally and globally.
Many people have stopped watching the news but I say you have to keep informed these days. I am an idealist and optimist so bad stuff doesn’t get me down much but I am starting to understand the desperation people are feeling these days. When most news is bad news it really plays on ones emotions and psyche. My friends I say fear not which is something that is said in religious texts but even I fear a little because I am human. With political unrest and infighting it makes things even worse. Yes Wednesday, June 14th, 2017 was a horrible day but tomorrow is coming and there is a promise of hope there.
