just hello to someone out there who would like to catch it

Daily life, and what happens between people in trying times. When people in their own families, or neighbors don't really show caring for one another, how can we think people of different countries will live together in peace?

Hello Joyce.

This is a good question. I share this link with you that will shed some light on the matter.

Connie, I wrote you a very long reply, and forgot to push the add reply button, so it got lost in cyberspace. I'm kind of new to the computer thing. But the reply contained the rain we got in Isreal today, and it also contained the news that missiles were shot at us, and that we shot back, and that if women could be in power, especially arab women in arab countries, I think things would be different. When the arab women will discover their power, and not be intimidated by the men, well, things will change. When women will have baby girls, and not cry, and apoligize for not bearing a son, things will change. A woman is a mother, and would never want anything bad to happen to hers, or any others child. If women would use the power that they have, and not be so afraid of it, the men would very quickly learn to want to live in peace with their wives.
I also started my reply by telling you that I have no recall of what you were replying to me about, because it was so long ago. My computer wasn't working for a while.
So I decided to reply with something that was happening today. I mean I'm not against men or anything like that, it's just that I think if we let them, they will fight forever, so lets try to turn it around, and clean up the planet, and stop being so damned sorry for the past, and lets make a very good present, and future for everyone.
Nice thoughts. I remember my Dad asking how the baby was when I had my first son - meaning what was the baby. I told he had a grandson, healthy, born at home. He said, ANy baby would be fine as long as it's a boy. I was a bit shocked - I mean, how archaic! Even 30 years ago in the US, there was a rise in awarenss of equality. I certainly didn't expect to hear that a baby girl wouldn't have been as welcome.

I never did have a baby girl, three boys, no girls. Too late now, but I did think I should have a tleast one of each-keep things equal. but the quantum actions and genetics spoke otherwise. I wouldn't trade my boys (can I call my 30 yr old son a boy still?) for any other kids, but a girl would have been nice.

Women's power in the US allows them, once they reach the point of escape, to leave an abusive man and go to shelters for safety. Once this becomes a norm in all countries, that women do not have to put up with abuse, torture, beatings, etc., that they can leave and have a safe place to stay, men will slowly learn that if they want their family then they must change their behavior, they must learn to deal with their anger and not throw it out on everybody else, but take responsibility for their own actions. Change comes slowly, how many areas in the US still have no safety net for abused women, how many people still say "well, she should just leave if she's being abused, any normal person would"? My ex-boss, a lawyer, and a semi-socially conscious one, once said that to me. I was once again shocked at how backward he was behaving and talking.

I still love the bumper sticker about bakesales and the airforce or army. Woudn't it be nice if the airforce had to have a bakesale to buy their planes and our schools were fully funded - all schools, including inner city, poor rural areas.
Charlie, Good for you. I don't believe in in armegeddon [didn't spell that right], it's also man made, and can God forbid become man made. One should not give any energy, or waste any psychic energy on such negativity. People can create something they don't even want by letting it take them over. Refuse to give in to such negative thoughts. Many people are negative in their nature, and so fall victum to creating negative things. Jump out of it like a child jumps out of a jumping rope, refuse to breed negativity. This is where positive affirmations, or a mantra can help to leave the negative vib. One must make a new groove in their brain, [get in the groove] and slowly the trend of thinking will change quite like someone who has successfully given up an addiction. Negativity can be an addiction. We must catch the power of the destructive, and cleanse it, and change it to be the food for the good. Maybe we should write a alchemist cookbook or something.
This is such a good subject. Saying this to our children (to MY children) they just may not get the point, and if you say it to adults, they are often stuck in their ways and don't WANT to get the point.
It is something we think of everytime we see those "little" things that don't work in society, or in our homes, or in the stores or on the roads.
But getting people to change their everyday habits is so difficult. Most people are not looking to change....
That's why being around like minded people, like here on iPeace is of such value. We are constantly reminded day after day about this, and it somehow sinks in.
Thanks
Stephanie
Thank you, Joyce, for this important topic. I do see kindness. So often in daily life, folks are truly loving and kind. If you look, you will see it. There is a great and growing grassroots movement of folks trying, one by one, to reach out to each other and create world peace through understanding and respect for each other.

I think in daily life, maybe I see more kindness than others because I am disabled. Folks tend to be kind to me because of my wheelchair, but I also notice them being kind to each other.

The very first person we must learn to be kind to and to love is ourself. Once we love ourselves, we can love one another. Once we realize we all have so much more incommon than that which divides us, we will all understand that it behooves us to love each other. To give love, kindness and compassion without looking for any response or return is key to developing a loving world.

Each of us must begin with ourselves. The only thing on earth we can affect is ourselves and what we send out and receive. Send out love. Receive only love. Let the rest go. Breathe in breathe out. Life is like a kiss, just relax and lean into it.

Be the change you wish to see, see the change you wish to be. This is all any of us can or need to do! :)
"Familiarity breeds contempt" can become part of the grind of daily life.
The tradition of Japan has been to keep a "distance" in relationships.
That allows for respect, reflection, leaving"space" in which to
experience inner peace, casting no shodows on one anoter.

It is easier to befriend a stranger than to keep that constant
gentle love amongst people we are closest to. At least I
am and have often been, if not always,guilty of that.
That is one thing in me I want to change most.

d.
a vauable lesson would be to practice love devotion and surreneder,in the loving and giving that each 1 of us can and should be practicing everday in all of our daily interreactions with fellow humans your brothers and sisters Mirror what you would like to see in others god bless almost a sufi steveyray
