The people of Indonesia have erected the statue of a boy who dared to dream of great things. He became the President of United States of America because of his dream. That boy was Barack OBAMA.
Here is a thought- would it not be nice to erect a statue of the great man in his home town in Kenya, with funds raised from the outside world.
What do you think, and do you think people would want to contribute to this worthwhile cause? Write to me at govind32@hotmail.com
President Obama, the wise President has announced that more troops will be sent to Afghanistan in an effort to destroy the ruthless and cruel enemy who hides under the name of Islam. We wish him every success, and hope that the world emerges triumphant as there are too many other problems facing us today.
John Donne's poem - No man is an island, in its entirety
No man is an island entire of itself, every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main.; If a clod be washed away by the sea. Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as any manner of thy friends or of thine own were; any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind. And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.
(Have you seen the movie, 'For whom the Bell tolls'- Spanish Civil war, Gary Cooper and ?Ingrid Bergman. See it.)
I am starting a new page, as I feel very strongly about it. I know you know what I am talking about without me even telling you about it.
A blue planet. Why is it blue? You and I know that it is water, or even land, but maybe because of the diffraction pattern of light that shows it up as a particular color.
Maybe we should ask Sir Isaac Newton about this.
We have long felt and know in our hearts that we are one- we have the same ambtions, we are social creatures that love a good family life, so why all this dissension we have? Please tell me why.
