Peace
At different states of our lives, the signs of love may vary: dependence, attraction, contentment, worry, loyalty, grief, but at the heart, the source is always the same. Human beings have the rare capacity to connect with each other, against all odds.

“I keep the telephone of my mind open to peace, harmony, health, love and abundance. Then whenever doubt, anxiety, or fear try to call me, they keep getting a busy signal and soon they’ll forget my number.” – Edith Armstrong

Peace
We live in fear. I’m very scared ... The authorities don’t do anything. If they did, we would not be living this situation. The police always patrol the same place, not where things are happening. I want them to do something so we can live in peace..SOURCE: AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL 2011-10-08 14:45:00

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.

ezs note: Isn't it time - in fact, long past time - for police officers to act responsibly and courteously toward transgender people? They can go act like dumbass dinosaurs at home, but once on the job, their failure to treat ALL people with dignity should be fired!!!
