Because I really like this song! And I scored it for FREE on Facebook because he is an unsigned artist just trying to get his music out there! Frequently I complain about FB but it definitely has it perks!

"Dona Nobis Pacem" GRANT US PEACE

Peace in Me
I am very glad that in a world of so much hatred and selfishness I am able to find peace within myself. The innerpeace that brings me so much joy when I am with my family. The peace of my soul when I feel I have done good works for others. The peace of my mind of knowing I have enough. The peace of love that comes from the best thing that every happened to me, being a Mother. And the peace I pray for everyday for the world I love: a peace free from hate and fear and where every child has a smile. I truly believe that we all can speak the language of peace. ~Dona Nobis Pacem~
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I like to believe that people in the long run are going to do more to promote peace than our governments. Indeed, I think that people want peace so much that one of these days governments had better get out of the way and let them have it.
-- Dwight D. Eisenhower (1890-1969)

What I Believe on Election Day
I do not believe that voting is a civic duty. I don't think anyone should vote based on looks, religion, ethnic background or for who is popular with celebrities.
I believe voting is a priviledge and civic right. If you want to vote, that's great! But get informed and make an informed to the best of your ability decision based on issues.
I don't believe everyone has to vote. Voting should be taken seriously. If you don't know the issues, don't vote.
I think it's a shame that celebrities and such use their status to influence people to vote their way.
I believe we should respect each others views as human beings. Just because we don't vote the same doesn't mean we can't be friends.
I believe McCain is getting a bad rap because of Bush. McCain is not Bush & shouldn't be judged as so because he is a Republican.
I believe the whole political system is corrupt & that is sad. There is too much money in politics. Let's take the money out and then let's vote.
I believe I will be casting my "informed" vote today! Voting is not your civic duty, it's your civic right and a priviledge...Don't Abuse the Vote!!!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now something that perstains me specifically. Today voting is being done in our city in our public schools. So people wanting to vote go down to whatever school district they are in. I was floored to find out they were using the school for voting during school hours. I'm a bit outraged and have been stressing over it all day. Does anybody else think that is not right??? Does anyone else's city do this? I just don't think it's a good idea to have many random people wandering around the school while children are there! And in this especially big election where if radicals are likely to be out for a cause it's on election day. In the big picture I'm probably worrying for nothing & everything will be alright. But I think better safe than sorry. We've already had to make so many changes to the school in an attempt to keep our kids safe from outsiders. So open up the school to anybody off the street during school hours?!?!?! I'm so mad!
So I'm off to vote. I'm very nervous and I hope I've made all the right choices.
