A Plea for Calm, Reason and Healing 9/19/2001

[Guest guest]

These essays are all original works by me. Each day I

spend time writing. Expressing my ideas in print or

verbally helps me sort them out. I save them to disk

for future use, and share them in hopes they may

inspire thought. I am A SilverSpirit, a shy, humble,

45 year old who loves all people. I write offline so

I can word my thoughts carefully, and sort through

them so they'll be clear. This practice has been

suggested by people on the net. It's a very effective

tool. These are MY opinions. No one is expected to

agree with everything I say.

I pray for Peace and Justice, Unity and Healing.

We've all been flung into the darkness of hate and

fear for far too long. This is a Test. Each of us

has a responsibility to ourselves and those around us,

to be civil, especially now. Now more than ever we

must be aware that our words are our most lethal

weapon. Anything can be a weapon, even a wheelchair.

Once an angry person I knew tried running me over with

hers. What will they do, take it away from her? Will

they take my cane away too? Will they take my

hairbrush away next? I could do a lot of damage with

it. We are reacting to trying times, but if we do not

calm down and use some reason, we're no better than

our enemies. When we are calm, we can be more

rational. We need to be reasonable, even in the face

of unreason. Look at what we've become.

NOW is the time to shine our Light. As Americans, we

can show the world our true greatness, by our

kindness. Please don't let innocent people suffer for

the acts of a minority? Look deeply into your hearts!

How often do we think before we speak? Ordinary

citizens, whatever country they're from, just want to

survive. They want the same things we do, as far as

being healthy and needing proper medical care, food

and shelter. We can really shine our Light upon this

world now, if our leaders would stop, listen, and

think. How long will this continue? How long can we

tolerate this eye for an eye way of life? Even in

groups of people with common interests, there are

words of insult and hate. So WHAT we disagree? Why

should that destroy our friendship? I'm not into

militerism, but I have friends who serve, and I accept

their choice to be there. Yet we are friends, despite

their occupation. I don't insult them for it. I've

had Christian friends too, though my faith is

different. We ALL have things in common. Why not

focus on that?

Please stop awhile and breathe deeply and let that

Light in. Examine your hearts, focus on Healing. We

need calm and healing. I'm tired of being angry, I'm

tired of the fear and talk of vengence. Which voice

will be heard, the angry ones, or the ones who cry for

Peace. Who will be left to listen?
