Nutrition and Weight Loss Ideas

As I was thinking about what my next series of articles will be about, I got to thinking about “Peace” and what it means to me.

I presently have a sort of “hang-up” about this because I really wanted to get one of those lighted signs to put in my window this year that said “Peace” or “Peace on Earth” or somethng along those lines.

I searched in every store within a reasonable driving distance. I could find “Santa Clause” — I could find “Angels” — or “Christmas Trees” — or “Reindeer” — or “Stars” —

—– but not one that just said “Peace“.

I didn’t go online to find one — maybe I should have — or maybe I still will to get one for next year, if there is such a thing.

I did try to make one myself, but that turned out to be an exercise in non-peaceful frustration. (Have you ever tried to get a string of lights to stay on a piece of cardboard with holes punched in it?) As they say, don’t try this at home! {smile}

Even as I drove through the neighborhoods looking at all the beautiful light displays — I didn’t see the word “Peace” anywhere.

Disappointing!

According to the home page of the World Peace Prayer Society, the simple prayer “May Peace Prevail on Earth”, carries a message of great hope and healing. It transcends barriers of nationality, race and religion to unite humanity in a call for the common good of all life on Earth.

What better time than now to accept their invitation to join in this universal prayer for peace? The link below will take you to a page where you can view this prayer in 80 languages. A link at the bottom of that page will take you to the Society’s home page where you can learn more about this organization’s work.

Have a great day.

Oh yes, this phrase that I end all my postings with — “Shanti” –That’s a sanscrit word meaning, “Let there be Peace. Peace, beautiful Peace. Peace within, Peace without. Peace in this world, Peace for all beings.”

Shanti,

Ron

Good day fine reader,

During this time of year, it’s always nice to spread cheer to others, I wanted to share with you a movie I’ve mentioned before — http://www.YourDashMovie.com — and which has been viewed by over 15 million people in the past few months, making it one of the most popular movies of its kind, of all-time.

During this frequently hectic and stressful time of year, it’s nice to be able to reflect on the truly important things in life. If you haven’t seen it in a while, or didn’t have a chance to view it in the first place, please take a few moments to view — http://www.YourDashMovie.com — and send it on to others who would appreciate the message as well.
