11 November 2020 — REMEMBRANCE DAY

I have chosen today to acknowledge the fact that it is Remembrance Day because wars still play such a big part in the world today and because being born in the middle of the war years affected me in the way that I didn’t get to know my father until I was around four years of age and would cry every time he came home on leave.

It seems that the human race takes a very long time to learn lessons. Will we ever learn to make LOVE NOT WAR?

I quote the words from John Lennon’s song -

‘Make love not war: I know you’ve heard it before: LOVE IS THE ANSWER AND I KNOW YOU’VE HEARD IT BEFORE, OH YEAH OH YEAH, MAKE LOVE NOT WAR.

And how many of us I wonder are at war with ourselves? How many of us know inner peace?
