Dona Nobis Pacem ~ 2009

Sometimes life is hard.  Part of being human is to suffer, there is no way around that.  We all have our hurts… physical, emotional, and spiritual.  I carry some of my old hurts with me even as I acquire new ones, that’s just the way it is.

So today I am grateful for those times in between… the good times!  Just as we have our share of suffering, we are also blessed with times of joy and peace! We carry those with us, too!  I will try to always remember the good old times while looking forward to the good new times!

    The glass is half full… Peace IS possible. The trick is filling in the in-between moments with peace as well.

    Your globe is lovely.

    Dawn~
    Thank you! And as always, I think yours is the best!
    Peace, my friend!

    Jen~
    Thank you!
    Peace to you and your family.

    Lee~
    It was great spending a little time together today. Thank you for taking the time with such a busy weekend coming up for you.
    Have fun at your son’s wedding.
    Peace, brother!

    Thanks for visiting and leaving a comment. It was nice to check out your blog, too! That’s one of the things I love about the BB4P, the chance to meet new eFriends!
    Peace to you and yours!

    Vinny!
    Hey, don’t “Sir” me! Totally informal around here! You and I hover around the same sites, so we are only one degree of separation from being true eFriends! I’m going to set your site up on my regular visit list and start making a nuisance of myself! That’s what eFriends are for, right?!
    Thanks for stopping!
    Peace, brother!

    Anndi~
    You know, I totally agree with you. I also think it is possible to be peaceful even in the midst of the hard moments of life. I’m not yet at that spiritual level.
    Peace, Anndi!

    Renny~
    Yours was the first peace post I read this year, last night before I went to bed. You got a head start in Oslo!
    I hope your blogger get together is a big hit next year!
    Peace!

    Mike~
    Thank you! How’s life in Cleveland? Hope it’s peaceful, today and every day!

    Ferd,

    Please send me the code to for your peace globe. For some reason I can’t copy it from here. Thank you. I want the dove to fly on my site too!

    Hope you are well.
