I Admit … I Like Confrontation and Debate … but … I am also a Conciliator and Peace-Maker when such Moments call for those Things

Let us have Peace on Earth, and Let it begin with me.......
I heard the bells on Christmas Day
Their old, familiar carols play,
And wild and sweet
The words repeat
Of peace on earth, good-will to men!
And thought how, as the day had come,
The belfries of all Christendom
Had rolled along
The unbroken song
Of peace on earth, good-will to men!
Till ringing, singing on its way,
The world revolved from night to day,
A voice, a chime,
A chant sublime
Of peace on earth, good-will to men!
Then from each black, accursed mouth
The cannon thundered in the South,
And with the sound
The carols drowned
Of peace on earth, good-will to men!
It was as if an earthquake rent
The hearth-stones of a continent,
And made forlorn
The households born
Of peace on earth, good-will to men!
And in despair I bowed my head;
“There is no peace on earth," I said;
“For hate is strong,
And mocks the song
Of peace on earth, good-will to men!”
Then pealed the bells more loud and deep:
“God is not dead, nor doth He sleep;
The Wrong shall fail,
The Right prevail,
With peace on earth, good-will to men.”
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow-- Dec 25th, Christmas Day, 1863
Hoping that everyone has a great Christmas. As a grandpa, I have it super; a whole swarm of happy little kids around and, unlike when my kids were little, I don't have to be up at 5:30 in the morning.
She is a wonderful singer, Mac. Her Christmas CD, '' American Indian Christmas'' has all the popular Christmas songs and each is sung in a different native language
A 30 foot high Christmas tree representation erected on a main street in atheist China. You can see four floors of the building behind it. Actually it looks more like a wedding cake, but it was put there for Christmas.
So …
Whatever you celebrate … may it bring you and those in your life … PEACE!
