It really does not matter how others react...or act in this world...the only truth lies within each and everyone of us. If we desire PEACE we should feel and send a greater LOVE to those that desire the opposite... for we are truly our '' brothers keeper''. When the world understands that we are ''ALL ONE'' and this may be hard for many to swallow..but the reality we live in...we are all somehow responsible for....if we acknowledged our part ( By our own negative thoughts...by accepting concepts of untruth such as sickness, holding on to old grievances, selfishness, hatred, bad luck, poor countries,war, and every malady known to man, all ego based) for these things are not our ''NATURAL STATE''. We are SPIRITUAL/DIVINE BEINGS ...much greater than we can comprehend... living a human experience, WHERE OUR THOUGHTS BECOME MANIFESTED AND ARE ''THINGS'' AND BECOME CONDITIONS... and yes it sounds out of a fairy tale the words I shall speak.....But imagen all the people living in this new though of : LOVE TRULY CAN HEAL THIS PLANET....BEGINNING WITH OURSELVES FIRST...HAVING A FORGIVING HEART.....THEN EXTENDING LOVE TO ALL OF THEM THAT CAUSED HURT! WOULD IT NOT BE A WONDERFUL WORLD......I BELIEVE IN PEACE...AND BELIEVE THAT PEACE STARTS WITH ME...AND YOU. A THOUGHT PROVOKING THOUGHT TO US ALL.....WHAT IF WE WERE TO REALLY GIVE PEACE A CHANCE BY BEGINNING WITH OURSELVES, AND IMAGINED A DIFFERENT WAY OF APPROACH? WHAT HAVE WE GOT TO LOOSE...OR IN OTHER WORDS.....HOW MUCH MORE IS THERE TO GAIN? THE ANSWER LIES WITHIN EVERY HUMAN HEART BEATING THIS VERY MOMENT..... I MYSELF, LIFT MY WHITE FLAG TO THE WORLD AND SURRENDER MY HEART FILLED WITH LOVE TO YOU ALL MY SPIRITUAL BROTHERS AND SISTERS, AND SEND YOU MY BLESSING OF PEACE...MAY YOU ALL BE BLESSED WITH AN OPEN CONSCIOUSNESS WHERE PEACE AND LOVE ABIDE AND MAY WE ALL LIVE THIS PEACE STARTING TODAY....THIS VERY MOMENT! WE ARE ALL CHILDREN OF GOD.....WHO EVER WE DEEM HIM TO BE...SOME CALL HIM ALLAH, OTHERS ABBA, GOD, YAWEH....AND COUNTLESS OF OTHER NAMES. WE HAVE DIFFERENT COLORS, WE SPEAK DIFFERENT LANGUAGES....BUT I KNOW WE ALL SPEAK THE LANGUAGE OF LOVE...FOR WE ALL EXPERIENCE LOVE IN OUR LIVES, THEREFORE MAKING US ''ONE'' IN THIS UNIVERSE, FOR THE LANGUAGE OF THE HEART IS LOVE ..AND IS THE ONLY TRUTH...FOR TRUTH IS THE HEARTS SOURCE!! WE ARE POWERFUL, BEAUTIFUL, WISE, INTELLIGENT BEYOND OUR WILDEST IMAGINATION.....FREE THE TRUE SELF THAT LIES WITHIN!! AND LET US GIVE OUR WORLD A NEW CHANCE.....LET US WORK TOGETHER AND NURTURE PEACE IN OUR HEARTS AND MINDS.....ALL WE NEED HERE IS TRULY MORE LOVE......THAT IS ALL WE REALLY NEED...

I wanted to post a comment that I received on FB for the sake of showing a different reaction to the article: "The truth behind the violence is a little different. Hamas is a terrorist organization that seeks the destruction of Israel and teaches their children the joys of martyrdom. This is much deeper than "why can't we all hug and get along". Hamas does not desire peace, only the destruction of Israel at all cost. There is no equivalency. Popular children's show in Gaza: http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=fb7_1231153405 Another TV show: http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=312_1231071363 Children's play in Palestine. http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=245_1231192390" Thanks, Hal.
