“… people are tired of seeing faith used as a tool of attack.” - Barack Obama June 28, 2008

Barack Obama is right on target when he talks about religion in the USA.
I am hopeful we can bridge the gap that exists and overcome the prejudices that all of us, to one degree or another, bring to the debate … No matter how religious they may be or not be, people are tired of seeing faith used as a tool to attack. They don’t want faith used to belittle, or to divide, because in the end that’s not how they think about faith in their own lives.

Where In The World Have I Been? Matt Has Been Dancing Around The World Since 2005!
.
I never knew about Matt’s dancing around the globe until I saw this video (from a link clicked on Towleroad). This is another one for the “I Wish I’d Thought Of That” category. What a totally cool plan.
.
Matt traveled around the world. StrideGum sponsored his trip (paid for it, I suppose!). And, someone shot video of him dancing everywhere he went. People from many of the countries he visited danced with him. This is definitely a smile-inducing and warm-spot-in-your-heart inducing video.
.
Watch it all the way through. You’ll be smiling and feeling happy inside by the time it’s over.

I hope all who are in our armed forces on this day are alive and unharmed. I thank all who currently serve and all who have served before.
.
In this country, we disagree about what is a ‘just’ war, but we appreciate and honor the sacrifice of those who serve this country in the armed forces.
.
Thank you men and women in uniform.

The post about flowers hidden about my yard last summer and the post about my first stained glass piece are consistently high on the list of posts viewed on this site. (Is it because everyone loves flowers and stained glass?) The other post that is usually at the top of the list is the “Don’t Worry, Be Happy” post.
.
Yesterday, Nathan Pacheco passed “Don’t Worry, Be Happy” in the daily searches and views. I am happy to see that. Nathan is a fine man with tremendous heart and talent. If you don’t yet know about him, visit the Yanni website and click the Yanni Voices tab. Happy listening!
