Make me an instrument of peace.

?
This video is about 2 minutes long

This video spoke to me about my choices.

I cannot change politics, the economy the disasters that have happened or are yet to come. ?

I can only choose to be an instrument of peace:

…in my own life, so I meditate.

…in my home, so I strive to understand.

…in my community, so I strive to engage and participate.

…in my state, so I focus on Colorado issues first.

…and in my country.

To that end, I voted last weekend. ?Have you?

    Loved the video…thanks so much for sharing…it spoke to me…in PA we don’t have early voting…so I can’t vote for another 7 days but I will be there bright and early…since I’m in the burbs I’m hoping there will not be a long line…sigh…but at any rate I plan to take a lawn chair, book, daughter’s i-pod and some snacks just in case.

    I have never heard that song…but I recognize Sarah MacLachlan’s voice. Very peaceful.

    Have not voted yet….but I will.

    I have never missed an election since I took my grandmother to vote in 1968 and I voted my first time, and she her last.

    I can only choose to be an instrument of peace:

    ?in my own life, so I don’t fear

    ?in my home, so I don’t allow fear.

    ?in my community, so I strive to end fear.

    ?in my state, so I focus on the state of divine being.

    ?and in my country, so I will vote as one of the masses, without fear of te outcome.

    You would have thought I worked for the voter registration people the way I printed out six of the forms, gave them to all my kids, had them sign, and then I mailed them all in!

    Also I tagged you.

    Lovely video ? and I, too, choose to be an instrument of peace choosing many of the same actions that you do in my daily life. Yes, I voted last Thursday.
    Hugs and blessings,

    I have no idea where that LIFE link came from in my previous comment, but I notice others have ‘links’ in their comments too. Do you know how this happens?
