Yep, I am a dreamer!
Me too – I am coming to decide it’s the only way I can be and have stopped fighting the tendency!
When I reblogged this, it just came up blank, so I just reposted it. One of these days I will figure out WordPress. Thank you as always for sharing it with us!
I TOTALLY support social media used like this–I try to use it this way myself. Hooray! I am reblogging this wonderfully uplifting lesson in connecting across faith systems and ethniticites and politics.
Thanks, granbee.

Please watch to be inspired by these connections of love and support across religious, political and ethnic lines that previously separated. How can YOU use social media in these ways?
And again – thanks.

Ordinary people doing extraordinary things. Or may extraordinary people doing ordinary things like loving other people.
I think both statements are simultaneously true. Thanks.

I came via this through Granbee’s reblog, and its a great find… the ordinary person on the street doesnt want conflict and wars.. we want Peace and Harmony… We must remember though that to change the world and its way of thinking… We need to change our own thinking.. We need to see that it is what we think, and create which goes out into the world.. So I hope that we can all see that if we change our own world of thinking and be more loving and less judgemental and fear less. We then create a more peaceful and harmonious world..
Love and Blessings.. ~Sue xx
I think people are really beginning to see that possibility.
