EARTH DAY 2008
2008-04-22 00:23:00 Will you teach your children what we have taught our children? That the Earth is our mother? What befalls the Earth befalls all the sons of the Earth. The Earth does not belong to man, man belongs to the Earth. Every part of the earth is sacred to my people. Every shining pine needle, every sandy shore, every mist in the dark woods, every meadow, every humming insect. All things are connected like the blood that unites us all. Man did not weave the web of life, he is merely a strand in it. Whatever he does to the web, he does to himself. One thing we know: our God is also your God. The Earth is precious to Him and to harm the Earth is to heap contempt on its creator. (Native American wisdom - Chief Seattle)I believe this is the most appropriate song to go with today's post:Listen to "What a wonderful world", by Louis Armstrong.Powered by CastpostHappy Earth Day to you all!

What a wonderful world it would be!
2008-04-12 00:30:00 "So live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about their religion; respect others in their view, and demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life, beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and its purpose in the service of your people. Prepare a noble death song for the day when you go over the great divide. Always give a word or a sign of salute when meeting or passing a friend, even a stranger, when in a lonely place. Show respect to all people and grovel to none. When you arise in the morning give thanks for the food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault lies only in yourself. Abuse no one and no thing, for abuse turns the wise ones to fools and robs the spirit of its vision. When it comes your time to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with the fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives...

(Yes, sir) We are on the move now. The burning of our churches will not deter us. (Yes, sir) The bombing of our homes will not dissuade us. (Yes, sir) We are on the move now. (Yes, sir) The beating and killing of our clergymen and young people will not divert us. We are on the move now. (Yes, sir) The wanton release of their known murderers would not discourage us. We are on the move now. (Yes, sir) Like an idea whose time has come, (Yes, sir) not even the march...

Free Tibet!
2008-03-17 14:55:00 The Tibet an capital Lhasa erupted in deadly violence, as security forces used gunfire to quell the biggest protests against Chinese rule. The protests, which spread outside Tibet into other areas of China, came amid a growing international campaign by Tibetans to challenge Beijing?s rule of the Himalayan region. Several people lost their lives and many others were injured."Whether intentionally or unintentionally, some kind of cultural genocide is taking place," the Dalai Lama said, referring in part to ethnic Chinese immigration in Tibet and restrictions on Buddhist worship, which have generated deep resentment among Tibetans.The spiritual leader of Tibetan Buddhism also called on Beijing to "stop using force" and urged protesters ?not to resort to violence in making demands of China?.According to some Human Rights Organizations, over one million Tibetans have died as a direct result of the Chinese invasion and occupation of Tibet and, today, it is hard to come across a Tibetan fam...

Ladies, a little provocation
2008-03-04 00:40:00 1. Marriage changes passion: suddenly you're in bed with a relative.2. A successful man is one who makes more money than his wife can spend.3. Any married man should forget his mistakes. There's no use in two people remembering the same thing.4. Men wake up as good-looking as they went to bed. Women, somehow, seem to deteriorate during the night.OK, I know I?m a dead indian, but I was curious to know what you think about these? points of view. More About: Ladies
