Your site come up when I goggle it. One of things that keeps reoccurring for me is remembering to have a bird's eye of our world. Upon lifting myself out of the dreary day to day indignation found at this time surprisingly, in the world's history our human lives are expediently better. Less war, less illness, more connectivity. And certainly more opportunity to come together. I hope this note finds you Fil and your friend Inger in a more heartfelt place regardless of the calamity that prevails. And if you can, please remember to Bake Bread for Peace. Catch yourself from thinking about the disasters of the day. Do it with a joyful heart and a calm mind. Things are getting better all the time. I wish you only good things.

We are living in a selfish world - some thankfully aren't ... but how to get people to realise we need to help others and lift each other up - not push anyone down.<br /><br />Cheers HilaryHilary Melton-Butcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17596532480645510678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4841505878252085938.post-74859718966482562962014-10-22T23:30:45.432+01:002014-10-22T23:30:45.432+01:00I agree with you wholeheartedly that if the people...I agree with you wholeheartedly that if the people at large were made part of the decision there'd be a lot less blood spilled. <br />and I do think the younger generation have a more wholesome idealism which they hopefully won't lose. <br />Thanks for coming by. <br />Fil Filhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09027496923235464642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4841505878252085938.post-4134583932507776402014-10-22T23:27:35.557+01:002014-10-22T23:27:35.557+01:00I was the same Inger - I thought it would all be o...I was the same Inger - I thought it would all be ok .... But I think all we can do is do the best we can in our own place ... and for me at least, stop watching the news. It's just scaremongering.

But it seems that as the years go by, people seem to care <i>less</i> about one another.<br /><br />I was a little too young to be a hippie, but even in the 70's we all thought we could make the world better. I'm not sure where we went off track.<br /><br />I have heard that the latest generation (forget how they are named) is different. If that is true, I hope that they do not lose their idealism.DiscConnectedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07013919800637508392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4841505878252085938.post-57294804600478251262014-10-22T19:22:23.168+01:002014-10-22T19:22:23.168+01:00I haven't baked bread for years but I wholehea...I haven't baked bread for years but I wholeheartedly support this idea. I think we all thought peace would come in our future, especially those who lived through the world wars. Nowadays I don't believe man will ever be totally at peace.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14087140585742801854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4841505878252085938.post-50744357252118890282014-10-22T17:54:46.756+01:002014-10-22T17:54:46.756+01:00What a special woman she must be.

I thought we would be done with wars, having grown up from all that, I thought people would become more sophisticated and tolerant. I thought there would be jobs, food, and all that. Don't know why I thought this, but I certainly was very wrong. Ingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02924736131382149056noreply@blogger.com
