Those Candles We Light

We all crave peace in the Middle East and an end to the war in Ukraine.. World democracies huddle to stop the rubble and halt those aggressors who maim. We see the innocents suffer with out any buffer where death and destruction now reigns. We empathize with their agony thru daily doses of this tragedy yet the heavy blood spilling remains.. As it tears at our hearts we can do a small part to bring peace to our planet again.. We must weed out all thoughts of anger from loss until light in our heart remains. Just one small thing at least, as we pray for world peace at the dawn of each new day.. When we get our thoughts right and our heart candle's bright, we may lighten some lives far away. l

Hi Silent One, I'm thinking that may be we should pray for a lessening of their aggressive egos? Just a thought. Thanks for your visit.
