The Guy Who Waved
Bella Shepard said:
You\'ve brought attention to something that should be reflexive in us, and sadly too many will ignore these days. A smile and a wave cost nothing, but reap such rewards. Science has proven that a smile is contagious, and a wave is acknowledgement of a fellow human being. I love that you have tackled this dilemma, awareness is the first step. Great write!

A very kind and warm gentleman, funny and his passion of food and life was like most who leave earth early extraordinary. I saw some clips of him dancing and he made me smile. A kind dedication. 🌹

The Palace on the River
Bella Shepard said:
Sadly dear friend, this is a universal theme, and you speak the truth of it most eloquently. Division seems to be the rule of the day, and those in power feed hungrily upon it to satisfy their own appetites. It will take a supreme effort on the part of all the people, and I don\'t know if there is the will to do it. I want to say that there is still hope, but I don\'t know any more what to hope for. You keep it real, thank you!

Our Bombed Seas (about the Red Sea attacks) (to the rhythm of \"Beyond the Sea\" by Bobby Darin)
Teddy.15 said:
I cannot believe what I am seeing each day on the news, just like when there was a world epidemic it just doesn\'t feel real even though it is. I hope we will find some diplomacy along the way not just lunecey because our planet deserves better. ❤️

Mortal-Hamas-ment (Israeli Shout) (Friend of Israel)
Doggerel Dave said:
HI Ben - Is \'please do stay everyone\' a typo or intentional? Either way, It is very apt inasmuch as you almost got me, and I suspect others to run away. The situation there is unspeakable for both sides, and as I am fond of remarking whenever 9/11 is mentioned,: \'Tragic. Innocent people die in war.\'
A brave attempt though.

Yes - Australia has been at it too and has sometimes been cited as a model for such migration policies. I think strenuous efforts have been made to modify or almost dismantle overseas processing, but as in many areas of Govt policy absolute irrefutable facts are hard to find. But I do believe Australia can claim to be a pioneer in this field...........!

A fine write my friend, on a subject that bears universal conversation about who we are as human beings. We have a southern border crisis here in my own country, with bitter divisions as to what to do, it has been going on for decades, and I can\'t see any resolution ever coming when the two political parties can\'t agree on anything. I\'ve often wondered what those in opposition would do if the tables were turned, and they were the asylum seekers.
It\'s too easy to say no when it\'s not happening to you. Love your courage, love your words!

Interesting - the whole Blue Monday thing. Love your poetic opposition. Seems I fell for the \'blue\' part as an American, no less. I\'ll have to remember the third Monday next January, and join your opposition!
