Its words so well composed, its message so very clear, its thoughts such important ones in the light of what is happening in the world today. Yes, "a raging river of blood and tears" does flow nowadays. Sadly. Often unexpectedly. The world is not sane right now. I pray for peace & hope it is not in vain.Maryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07366010389846904663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2856606190655958351.post-40759672596927978592016-07-17T11:35:32.300-04:002016-07-17T11:35:32.300-04:00I wonder how, when a single man so bent on hate ca...I wonder how, when a single man so bent on hate can cause such damage... When will the bloodshed cease.. Maybe humans need to destroy before we build.. Maybe we like a Phoenix that needs to burn before its born.

Am feeling, so beaten down, over the past 2 months, Sherry. Am losing whatever hope, I have, for humanity, as a whole. And yes, it's fueling my depression, to ever deeper levels, of despair and sadness.Therisa's Worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14158009488213815860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2856606190655958351.post-36900097069593897122016-07-15T16:08:48.528-04:002016-07-15T16:08:48.528-04:00I so resonate with your poem, Therisa, as I am ama...I so resonate with your poem, Therisa, as I am amazed at how frequently my tears flow these days. The heart can hardly contain what is happening these days. I just heard Obama say we must stay true to our values, that the hatred does not compare with the goodwill of the many around the world. This type of event is a kind of "war" one cant fight or prepare for, occurring in random places. I heard a man in tears on the news say he couldnt understand why the world is so full of hatred. It is hard to understand, as the majority of people are peaceful and loving.Sherry Blue Skyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10769154286598233146noreply@blogger.com
