Intro/dream: I am a 5O+ yr old woman with no kids or husbands but a full life with friends, family and a niece and nephewS. I am a protestant minister and am always praying for peace. We need to get back to the basics taught from the ancient texts, "love God with all your heart mind and spirit, and love your neighbor as yourself." When we lose connection to each other, when we prefer to remain anonymous, and not get involved in making the world a safer and more peaceful place, we have all lost a little of our humanity. We can hate war, but we can also remember that in the midst of war, many humanitarian missions were conducted and hope was restored in the most devistating of times. We need to act in ways that retain our humanity because when we begin to lose that. we are all in big trouble. I am saddest about the horrible content on the Internet that is fed by horrible addictions. It makes our children unsafe and I would like to find a way to shut it down forever. Little kids should not be snatched off the street corners or have to be sold for someone else's perversion. A perversion grow and fed on the Internet. The Internet can connect us in new and positive ways (like this) and it can tear us apart. I pray that I can find the right way to fight this fight.
