We are so blessed
to have a method of reaching people around the globe to let them know what is going on and how they can help make it better.

We are so blessed that more and more are aware of our ecological problems and are working to find a solution.

We are so blessed that we have leaders right here at home who are working to make sure the TRUTH is told about corruption.

We are so blessed to have a group where we can visit, rant, and talk with fellow Dems.

We are so blessed because we can choose to emphasize the positive, which strengthens us and gives us courage to go on.

Ho Metaquiatsun.

Namioko rimnikyo.

Blessed Be.

Salaam-Shalom-Om Shanti Shanti Shanti

7. thanks
It can be hard to be positive, but I try to remember that dark and scary shadows disappear in the presence of a strong light.

4. A lovely reminder to count our blessings.
Prayers of gratitude are said by some to be the most powerful.

23. As a pessimist, even I can't disagree.
Actually I'm more of a realistic observer. And I don't like what I see.

But I was just posting on another thread how great DU is. And how we can congregate in peace here.

Yep. Good stuff. And I suppose what you are hinting at is that no matter how things are, there will always be a ray of light.

Maybe I'm a pessimist in some ways, but I don't miss the little rays of hope that flash now and again.

32. We reall ARE blessed, aren't we...
It lends us strength when we stop to remember the fact that none of us are completely without.


Blessed be all!
