IsRaeL aNd pAlEstiNe...WaLk aBoUt LovE...

I just got annoyed and sad with an e.mail i received to "vote for Israel"...
I respect the person who send that to me, but I had to reply to check if he was in his good senses...sometimes we just don't think about what we're doing...specially when it comes to sign petitions on the internet...
so the e.mail goes like this:
" Please login to this to vote and consider forwarding this
> important message to your friends and colleagues

I was disgusted just by the language... who are "we" who are supposed to stand together?!!
Is it "hateful messages" the best motivation to get involved?!!! ... This makes me sick...

Shouldn’t WE (fellow human beings) be for PEACE and JUSTICE for all...?!!!

I’m not for "Israel", and I'm not for "Palestine"... I have some good Israeli and Palestinian friends... And I love them all !!! And I'm sure they would love each other, if only they could meet together...
I’m for a reconciliation between brothers and sisters...for peace... If there is Hope for Heaven on Earth, there is Hope for this...

I’ll not read propaganda... I'm sure I can hear many hateful messages both from "Palestine" and "Israel" ... these might be States (I'm not even going into that discussion here), but they are made by people like you and me... and so often people don't agree with their Governments... they are equally human beings, who suffer, who might feel injustice, who might feel anger sometimes, who might feel hatred, saying and doing horrible things... but is it easy to forgive when we are wounded ?! Be honest !!! Both Israelis and Palestinians are tired of seeing terror, family members being killed, their land being stolen, etc... Would you easily forget and forgive if any of this would happen to you ?!!
What they both need is to forgive... and maybe to have role models to help them, instead of a bunch of people, who probably know nothing about their reality, voting for one or the other...
In the end, they are both victims of fear...
We should not encourage this hate as children of God... as ministers of Peace and reconciliation...

Lets pray for Peace... Real PEACE that comes from FORGIVENESS... Not by man's strength, not by armies or Government agreements... Not by propaganda of hate...
Let us pray that FORGIVENESS takes place... And for the best to be decided for both these peoples who suffered so much already... Lets pray for wisdom for those involved in the peace/reconciliation process... because this is too complex for me to figure out what is best to do...


And instead of focusing on the bad things that are happening, let us remember that there are good things...
This next March, it will start the Walk about Love 2009 in Israel ...starting from the south till the north...
a bit of their description:
" We aim to walk the entire length of the land of Israel from South to North , to show the rest of the world that it is possible for people of different races, colors and nations to understand each other. Gathering together with all of our different cultures and languages, we will share a demanding challenge.
A One Thousand Kilometer Walk In Three Months .
Our mission is to demonstrate that coming together in harmony is possible.
This protest is a heart felt cry for connection and unity. We are but tourists passing through this world for a short time. Lets not waste our time.
Come together and enjoy a true connection as one human family – living, working, walking, singing and dancing together. The sharing of our beautiful differences towards the common goal of Global Brotherhood will enrich us all.
Walk About Love is firstly a universal musical festival featuring artists and musicians from all over the world. This exchange of musical cultures, we believe, will create a universal understanding. Dancing together we will learn to love and accept each other. "

...the "foolish" showing some wisdom to the so called "wise" in this world...

May Palestinians be invited, (if possible for them to get in some territories) and welcomed ... May the message of Love be transmited, that we can live together and love one another without fear, irrespective of our religious beliefs, our colour, our nation, etc...

This is the message we are to carry as children of GOD!!! The God of ALL Nations, peoples, tribes and languages !!! The I AM !!!

MAy God Bless us all...
