God is Love. That is what it is all about, and everything proceeding it makes sense too at the end.

Oh, I hope it does all come together in the end. The ways of the universe are beyond us otherwise. Keep the faith; bask in His Love. Blessings, gw

Connie, flattery will get you everywhere (at least with me), but I fear that you are much, much too kind... I'm confident that your creative juices and feminine intuition/wiles will come up with something that will blow mine away! Thank you so much for encouraging me, and Best of Everything. ~ Gershon

This should be set to music for such progressive singers like Madonna and U2 could perform it at anti-war marches) By the way, where are they, the anti-war marches? I haven't seen them for ages.

The antiWarstuff is on Faecbook and Twitter under the guise of hate,p Ye okde days of peace marches are extinct. Which war are we protesting now? Only marches I know of are the war to save babies, or to force PC on us. Frankly, it scares me. You think differently? The crowd will attack you bodily, or with curses, destroy your car or any paraphernalia you wear! Best not show any religious symbols.,, This was meant for Kurt)). P.R

Interesting point. Extremely interesting point. You're right. Where have all the anti-war protests gone? I'm just thinking-out-loud here and playing a hunch, BUT who doesn't want to stop ISIS, Hamas, Al-Qaeda, Iran, and yes, Gospdin Vladimir P., from starting wars, mostly of terror, today? ---Maybe nobody. Absolute evil is making a slight comeback, methinks, among 'progressive thinkers.' ~ Probably 'all-wet' here in Chicago

Thank you for your comment, your unstinting support, your good wishes, and your inquiry, Tom. I'll know in two weeks what the immediate future (1/2 of June, and July and August) holds. With appreciation, Gershon
