But we must write of flowers and fragrance or laughter and giggles. To smile or laugh in the face of tyranny is (even though I’m pretty much atheist) a God given strength. You write on, GW, we shall admire your strength of character and never judge your subject matter. Flaming heck… I just made a speech! And I stand by every word.

I would throw a big hug around your shoulders! I hate what is going on. I feel like we are already at the precipice of a world war. Hate is not the answer..the puppets don’t understand what they are doing! We pray for peace!

Hi Gershon. So much truth in this that its painful. There are still billions that stand with goodness, but they stand in the shadows. Stay well my friend, Anthony
