Is it a mystery

that during the Vietnam War

more were upset by

the burning of a draft card

than the burning of Kim Phuc,

the little girl set on fire

by napalm?



Is it a mystery that

now.. archeologists are

more upset that buildings

will be destroyed than

that living temples of

Spirit are being killed?



Is it a mystery that

now.. some are more upset

by the burning of the flags

of different nations

than by the burning of

babies, one of whom was held

crying in his mother's arms

with half of his face burned this

week?

Love is the universal solvent..

Father Mother God help all to see the unripe

  love in these men.. and women..

Remove the anger which bullies cause to arise in me..

help me not to judge.. not to have hard and fast opinions..

to see all as You see all... let me realize that I were

more progressed spiritually, these things would not

arouse anger in me
