Thank u* so very much for your in dept...Hi Johnnie,<br />Thank u* so very much for your in depth comment. I agree w/ all that u* shared, as I view the faith that I was raised in, in childhood as a basis for understanding my personal relationship w/ God, nature, myself & humankind as a whole. I have a dear friend who told me what her father used to tell her family, "It's all, a wonderful story." I see it that way too, as a really good story handed down over the centuries, of a particuliar civilization which in modern day is viewed as Judiac-Christian. The stories of "All the Peoples of the Earth", also are wonderfully rich, w/ the inspirations that created them, & their various narratives & adventures. <br />The Passover Story has always "spoken to me" in a most special way, as I find it an excellent metaphor of this modern day western civilization life span, hence the 40 years of wandering on the desert.<br />But what makes me feel ultimately grounded & whole is my personal relationship w/ nature, hence God that resides in us all, w/ no herichary, no head games, & our organic connections, of living a life. Thus my lifetime dedication as a peace & enviromental/conservation activist.<br />Thank u* again dear friend from 40+ years ago, as it's been quite fun, & inspirational re connecting after all this time.<br />The very best w/ your upcoming books, as I am sure, that the folks from near & far & also those who visit the Peace Garden will love to read them, as will I.

Thank you so much for sharing some of ...Hi Cheryl,<br /><br />Thank you so much for sharing some of the rich history of Passover. It's so important for us to work towards understanding and respecting our diverse spiritual lives, and to take a moment to give thanks and praises. Too often great harm is done in the name of "religion" -- yet, I think, at the heart of all spirituality is the desire to love and share and be humble before powers greater than ourselves, however an individual chooses to define or acknowledge those powers. It is indeed all about ONE LOVE. Bless up, Cher. Bless up. Shalom!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
