I've been in bed with several mossies at once, hmm, I wonder what that makes me?<br /><br />The peace sign is such an icon, so emotive isn't it, even for people who wear just innocent bystanders because we were too young or two old. I think I missed out on Vietnam by two years. When I look at pictures of myself at the correct age I realise that i was a baby. <br /><br />People are greedy, we only see things from our own perspective in the end. If you can change that, then you have a chance I think.<br /><br />have a wonderful joyous Christmas ! see you! from Oz, the land of plenty (most of it desert)Andrew Finniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08877768852340470022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6639676523379057364.post-24201989009603300932010-12-22T17:47:11.264-08:002010-12-22T17:47:11.264-08:00@Heidi, Yep, whoa :)

To repeat something I heard on the radio yesterday, it's okay to look directly at the moon's eclipse (unlike solar eclipses).Linda Hensleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11929626735450807904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6639676523379057364.post-87188645345634214402010-12-18T14:00:37.570-08:002010-12-18T14:00:37.570-08:00Thanks for the inspiration!Thanks for the inspiration!Vicki Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15968677344571227392noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6639676523379057364.post-86277193192031729752010-12-18T11:54:29.200-08:002010-12-18T11:54:29.200-08:00Happy Solstice, Linda...and don't forget to go...Happy Solstice, Linda...and don't forget to go out and look at the Full Moon Lunar Eclipse on the evening of December 20th too!<br /><br />Wonderful musing and quotes here on how to make positive change in the world.

There is real passion in this post and I have certainly been in bed with a mosquito (or actually the room was full of the wretched things...not such good memories of one holiday!) Working for the health service here in the UK one thing I endorse with passion is how we treat ALL our patients the same from the very poorest to the richest, it's a fair system and long may it survive. I wish this happened in other aspects of our society too...perhaps I need to morph as a mosquito??!! Jane xJanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11742664269417361941noreply@blogger.com
