If only, indeed, Elizabeth ... another dream at this point, but we need to hope ... or at least TRY to. Blessings, Friend! :-)

Hate is an awful burden to carry, and made worse when it's incited by others for their own agenda. Four lines of truth, Greg.

I agree Greg. Hate is such a wasteful, destructive emotion.

Thank you, Susan! Imagine if no one showed up to these hateful rallies ... it wouldn't be long before they no longer had them at all.
