No Room for Hate.

There is no room within my heart
for revenge, fire or hate
there is no room within my mind
for any thoughts like these.

I cannot find the words to say
just how it is I feel
but I know from deepest hurt
I must forgiveness find.

The hurt that’s been done to us
cuts sore like a knife,
but we must not, repay in kind
what has been done to us.

Instead we must try and find
the way that is so hard,
and reach out our loving hands
to find some friendship now.

There can be no more healing thing
than opening wide our eyes
and seeing that most other folk
are really just like us.

by David Gould
This first poem was written in memory of all those that died in 7/7 but equally applies to those who lost loved ones in other tragedies....

Comment by Maria Eugenia Troya on October 22, 2009 at 4:41pm: Is it so hard to feel love and respect for those whom we consider different? Oh please, lets try to share the best of us and not the beast that sometimes lives inside us. Lets try to be concient every minute of our lifes, if we are here and everyday we work to be better, peace will be allowed to be in the center of ourselfes.

Avaigail, violance is a continuing circle if we do not stop it. The website, for example, is bringing us together from all around the world. It is my belief that we are all connected to everything and everyone,. This might make me a dreamer but it is my religion.
Each day
Love Peace Unity for All People

Comment by Robert on December 7, 2008 at 10:47am: Why? Too many reasons and not enough answers. Too many actions keeping others down until they would rather die than live as they are. What does any powerful body think will happen when life becomes living Hell for the opressed? We must change now as a whole or we will die as a whole! Peace from my heart to all of you! Robert

Comment by Cheryl Stowe on December 2, 2008 at 7:55pm: Sky so blue Gods Love is true
The wicked shall he repay
For vengence is his!
His grace shall not always dwell with man.
Satans binding soon shall God comand.
Let us all be under Gods eternal stand.
To forgive as Christ has and live in Grace
Will free us all of hamanities disgrace.
