Today, June 4th 2008, I'm supporting the Blog Blast for Peace 2008, started by blogger Mimi. The idea is to get as many blog postings headed "Dona Nobis Pacem" out there, and spread this urge for peace throughout the world as far and wide as possible.
You can read more on Mimi's blog, and if you're a fellow blogger you can join and make your own peace globe, sign it, decorate it and display it with pride. Here's the one I made for Mellow Yellow & Co:
Spread the word, and do something positive too - be the peace you want to see in the world.Here's my thought for the day, a quote from Carlos Santana:
"Peace has never come from dropping bombs.
Real peace comes from enlightenment
Real peace comes from enlightenment
and educating people to behave in a more divine manner"

I am with you all the way on this one
It was amazing to see the huge number of posts headed "Dona Nobis Pacem" listed yesterday when I did a quick blog search for this title. Very supportive and confirming that there are countless others who feel this way, and inspires some hope in what often seems a very materialistic "me, me" world.
I do feel that the internet is a powerful tool for uniting people and to give hope to the downtrodden. Governments seem to want the approval of other people and this is a tool to put o that pressure.
This is just to test my new account.
Testing again
Third time lucky?
Jackie, mellow yellow...I totally agree. I have been so pleased with this turnout. Many new peace bloggers this time with thoughtful posts and globe creations.
This is a labor of love for me
I am so thrilled you decided to blog for peace with us today.
Peace to you and yours,
Mimi
Just one more try.
Jackie & Mimi,
Thanks so much. A pleasure to be involved and an important way of accessing the "power of one" to join in with others to take part.
Jackie, we'll crack you & your new email yet...I hope!!
Joyce :-)
Joyce please let this be a comment I can publish myself without you having to sanction it! Won't try to publish anything else until I am sure.
