A nice thought World peace, Arturo...but until then it would be best we keep our swords sharp and our eyes wide open. A nicely penned Monoku I do say though. My best regards! :) john

Nicely stated, Arturo, it seems our society has become so polarized we never take time to see the good in each other. Cheers, John

There're a few things we as a race must get over to live in peace...and we will...maybe not in your time or mine...Thanks John

Thank you Gershon... The cycle of revenge never ends...it's best eliminate everyone and start over again...like the old testament and the new...

How true! A perfect monoku, Arturo. If we truly opened our eyes, we would see this is the case. Hope we find harmony in my lifetime, but we may have strayed too far. Hugs, Carolyn
