As I see it... there are no borders in the sky... why are there borders on the ground?

I think peace on earth starts with the people you meet every day. Unbelievably... you can make a difference, if only in your world. However, if you think about it, the people you meet every day will meet other people. Touching just one life can affect many lives. It is like the old Prell commercial... "She told her friends who told their friends..."

Through my travels (9/24 States and 4/19 Countries I have lived/visited) I have discovered that people are the same wherever you go. They speak different languages with different accents but the common denominator is communication. They have different skin, eye, and hair colors but the effect of a smile is the same to all of them. One can be adventurous and simplistic at the same time. It all depends on knowing when to stop along the way to smell the roses and when to rush off to the next sunset.

Of course, this is my observation of life. One can see more when on the outside looking in than they can in the midst of things. I have been outside or on the edge but rarely... in the midst. For this reason, I have observed life with a different perspective. It is hard to see the glass half empty when one is looking up. It is very easy to see all that is negative when one is looking down. It is all a matter of choice.
