Hi all,

I've been very present for the past months...living in the here and now, which, ironically is why i've been absent from my blog. The crows at Stone Henge told me to take my journey inside, and that's what I've done.

So, why am I here today? Well, a friend sent me this photo from a friend of hers (who took it in her bank a couple of years ago), and I couldn't resist a few comments.



And we are worried about terrorists...

There are soooo many levels of tacky irony, and insensitive crassness here. I don't need to spell out the obvious ones, well...because they're obvious. But I can't help but wonder who those dog tags used to belong to...

A passage from Barbara Marciniak's book Family of Light comes to mind:

"You must learn to end the wars in your world by ending them in your minds."

Whomever created this tree has an incredible dissonance which I'm sure they are not aware of...which motivates me even more to practice love and forgiveness. It also motivates me to look deeper inside myself to find the dissonances that I am not aware of.

Happy holidays no matter what you believe or celebrate.

peace and harmony,

paul
