Profile Information

When it comes to peace, how would you describe yourself?: I feel the pain in the world

What do you believe are the 'burning issues' today?: War, Hunger, Poverty, Education, Our Planet, Violence, Inflation, Human Rights

What must we overcome to achieve peace?: Economic disparities

More: For instance, when you have poor, uneducated individuals who feel there is nothing to live for or they feel there is no future for them, they result to crime and gangs. In Iraq and Afghanistan there are young children who have nothing to look forward to so they fall victim to become sacrificial bombers in the name of "religion".

Can we change the world?: Definitely

More about me: I am a true lover of life. I have lived overseas with my husband for the majority of our married life. Places like the South Pacific, East and West Africa, and the Indian Ocean. We were with Peace Corps together from 1987 until 1991.

Promise to respect others and refrain from spamming?: Yes
