Dreams of Peace

We recently took a short trip to Bullhead City, Arizona via Las Vegas, Nevada. We were only in Las Vegas for one night but wanted to make sure to spend a few minutes walking down to the Mandalay Bay to pay homage to the victims of the awful attack there. It saddens me terribly to see so many acts of hate in the world these days. As my blog is titled “Blogging My Dreams”, I couldn’t resist sharing my biggest dream…..that of peace on earth. I won’t try to explain my feelings, I will let someone far wiser and greater than me do that:

“Peace cannot be kept by force; it can only be achieved by understanding.” “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.” ~ Martin Luther King, Jr.

  1. Thanks Yvonne. We haven’t been back since we were there working for Hillary and helping to turn Nevada Blue last year.
    So much has happened since them. I feel like Paul Krugman who says he wakes up every morning with a sense of “existential dread”.
    That’s what happens when you can’t be sure you are moving forward and things are getting better.
    Thanks for the reminder of how lucky we are to still be here for the holidays.
    And to inspire us for all the work that needs to be done to get us moving forward again.
