Wage Peace<\/strong><\/p>

Wage peace with your breath<\/p>

Breathe in firemen and rubble, breathe out whole buildings and locks of red wing blackbirds<\/p>

Breathe in terrorists and breathe out sleeping children and freshly mown fields<\/p>

Breathe in confusion and breathe out maple trees <\/p>

Breathe in the fallen and breathe out lifelong friendships intact<\/p>

Wage peace with your listening:<\/p>

hearing sirens, pray loud<\/p>

Remember your tools: flower seeds, clothes pins, clean rivers<\/p>

Make soup<\/strong><\/p>

Play music; memorize the words for thank you<\/strong> in three languages<\/p>

Learn to knit, and make a hat<\/p>

Think of chaos as dancing rasperries, imagine grief as the out breath of beauty<\/strong> or the gesture of fish<\/p>

Swim for the other side<\/p>

Wage peace.<\/p>

Never has the world seemed so fresh and precious<\/strong>:<\/p>

Have a cup of tea and rejoince<\/p>

Act as if armistice has already arrived.<\/p>

Celebrate Today.<\/p>– Judyth Hill<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Found the above gem of a poem, so beautiful from this site…<\/a> Such serendipity at times of ashes, soot and greys. So many beautiful people holding light, to support and save each other, especially at times like this. Did not know of this poet, Judyth Hill, but now she’s got a fan in me. I love crafters of magical words that resonates … In spite of all the bad news, the haters, the narcissists, the diseased – we are going to get through this as works like this give me hope.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are so many good people with humanity doing so much good work – they just don’t go around shouting and bragging, those humble people doing the work unrecognized or not – as recognition and credit taking, power trip, is not what they are after.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
