As we bomb so carefully

Were it that easy...
there are no winners

(big hugggsssssss) Oh Roert, I too agree, it seems we are accepting violence every day in ourn society and even when we cry of a crime we hear or murder on TV, we are always curious to know what happened so that is just glorifying violence! (sad sigh) This is such a sad truth, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Robert, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

video delight
no one ever needs to know
it trains minds for war

paladin,
you paint the truth so softly it is buried in my heart before I have kenned the meaning.

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

Computer guided weapons...we kill from a distance...never hearing the cries of our victims...it is too easy to be detached...well done, Robert..

believe in what your heart feels...

What ever happened to pointed sticks and blunted words? Where only a few needed to die to make a point or quell revenge? Or where killing could be avoided by simply a marriage pact?

Good point, and a short but sweet poem!

So few words, so much impact.

I am glad you are here and voice what is in your heart and what you have seen.

Robert, you know how to put the truth right out with just a few words. I love reading these that you do. I've been away from the computer for a while, so I need to go catch up...
