We light our chalice for the goal of world peace, liberty and justice for all.
Will we ever have a fair and peaceful world? Maybe we can just work on having a fair and peaceful and safe place around each of us. That hopefully one day will grow to include more spaces. One comment that I have heard is that how will we know what is fair if we don't have unfair situations. and how will we know what is peace if we don't have conflict? What are your thoughts? Can the lion lie down with the lamb?
I like to think that my Women of Faith group is helping to make us more aware and accepting of people of other faiths.
Definitely traveling and meeting people from around the globe helps. This year we have opened our house to young people from across the nation and the world who are here in Iowa working on campaigns for the different candidates. Some have come just for a night or two and others for months. It has been interesting to meet them all. Our latest, Stormy will be leaving us shortly to go back to Washington, D.C. for Christmas and his wedding. He has been a great addition to our household. And the grandkids have stopped yelling stranger, stranger when he walks in the door. I know they will miss him when he leaves.
So this a picture that I took in Halifax, NS this fall. It is by the water and I just loved the different colors.
What are you doing to help make the world a fair and peaceful place?
Blessed be,
Kathy
