WASTE OF ANY KIND IS VIOLENCE ~ ANGELA
******************************
Planet Earth is unique and very ...
Hospitable. Abundant potable water
Due to the Water Cycle - Free Oxygen
For everyone and fertile soil for
Crops & Grazing so Plenty Food for ALL.
Why are millions starving every day ?
Because of MANs WASTE & MANs GREED !
33% of Food produced is wasted due to
Lack of Storage Distribution & Overproduction
Planet Earth could easily feed 10 billion.
Wastage of Food & Resources is VIOLENCE
Against GOD who provided them and the
HUNGRY & NEEDY who need them - AMEN !

THE FIVE PILLARS OF NON-VIOLENCE ~ BRIAN
*********************************
RESPECT for Myself and My Fellow Man
Makes the person that I AM
Without RESPECT there is no DIALOGUE
And I just become a croaking FROG
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
NON VIOLENT PROTEST is unlike any other
First I must UNDERSTAND my BROTHER
See my situation from His *Point of View*
Without CONFLICT try to resolve the TWO.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We all have GOOD points we all have BAD
And Im ashamed of some that Ive had
But ACCEPTANCE of others GOOD *Points of View*
These will PEACEFULLY see us through ~ AMEN !
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If I APRECIATE YOU ~ and all the GOOD You DO - &
If you APRECIATE ME & on some things we both agree
And if on some things we compromise
We can work PEACEFULLY ~ SIDE by SIDE !
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
CONFLICT is always fueled with AGRESSION
PEACE is always fueled with COMPASSION
If I love
BE AWARE OR SELF WORTH ~ ANGELA
************************
This is an important MANTRA ~ because
The GOOD BOOK says we should LOVE OUR
NEIGHBOUR as we LOVE OURSELVES! If we
Dont VALUE OURSELVES we have NO LOVE
To share with our NEIGHBOUR ~ AMEN !
God chose Good Parents for ME ~ A GOOD
GENE POOL ! A MAMA who is an ENGLISH
LADY with Good Breeding & Good Manners.
MY PAPA is *Un Caballero Espanol* ~ A
Christian Gentleman with great ambition
For His Children & Grandchildren ~ AMEN
With such a Pedigree how can I fail !
SO FAR My Parents (& Brians) Love me 100%
My Parents also LOVE BRIAN as much as they
Love Me and were not PHASED when I joined
BRIAN in An Evangelical Church (B is a Decon)
Having been raised a CATHOLIC. I miss the
RITUAL(of RC) but enjoy the freedom of the
EVANGELICAL ! Brian & I rUn the TEEN CLUB
At the Church some of whom have an RC background.
I greatly value my JOB as a PHYSIOTHERAPIST
And feels it gives something back to the
COMMUNITY ! Pride in Myself ~ My Religion &
My JOB enables Me to encourage others to
Appreciate what they HAVE and improve their
Own SELF WORTH ~ Which is my AIM ~ AMEN !

DONT BE AFRAID TO SPEAK OUT AGAINST INJUSTICES ~ BRIAN
****************************************
In this WORLD we live in ~ we see INJUSTICE
All around ~ Extortion of the WEAK & NEEDY
Supression of a RACE because of their SKIN
Oppression of others because of their RELIGION
Hitler said *Die Juden sind ein Germ* The JEWS
Are a Germ in Society ~ in Mein Kampf in 1923
By 1945 SIX MILLION were DEAD while GERMANY
looked on few protested. Segregation in AMERICA
APARTHEID in SOUTH AFRICA ~ ETHNIC CLEANSING
A dislike of GYPSIES in the UK ~ Issues of
Persecution because of RACE - RANK - RELIGION
Are allowed to Flourish Unless SOMEONE ~ UNLESS
You & I Speak out against INJUSTICE & CURRUPTION
IN HIGH PLACES ~ WILL YOU BEGIN TODAY ???????
**************************************
Thanks for adding a MANTRA only TWO LEFT 7 & 10
which one will YOU CHOOSE ? Love A & B XOXOX
PRACTICE NON-VIOLENT PRENTING ~ ANGELA
*******************************
I am appauled at the way some Parents
Treat their Youmg Children ! Even in a Mall
The Child kicking & screaming The Mother
Making no attempt t0 Pacify just shouting
And screaming & shaking. When they get Home
Its worse - *Out of sight ~ Out of MIND*
Im gentle and Brian is also very Gentle and we adore Children. We have BOTH made a Covenant
with GOD to always be NON-VIOLENT PARENTS !
Every month in our local & national Papers
there are accounts or Parents abusing their
Children even unto Death ! ABUSIVE PARENTS
CREATE ABUSIVE CHILDREN. Always be GENTLE !
