There´s no way to PEACE. PEACE is the way.

Imagine there’s no heaven
It’s easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today…Imagine there’s no countries
It isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace…

You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world…

You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope someday you’ll join us
And the world will live as one

["Imagine" - - John Lennon]

This world could deal with a lot more PEACE! Please engage in serious soul-searching and ask yourself:“What type of world do we wish to hand over to our children? Or to our grandchildren?”

We want it to be a peaceful one. Please help to spread the world…
… and be the CHANGE!

The picture on our Peace Globe was taking on Luis 1st birthday a few weeks ago. I´ve always wished for worldwide peace, but since Luis is part of our little family I pray even more:

And now…

… our moment PEACE:

“An eye for eye only ends up making the whole world blind.”
– Mahatma Gandhi”Imagine all the people living life in peace. You may say I’m a dreamer, but I’m not the only one. I hope someday you’ll join us, and the world will live as one.”
– John Lennon

“Mankind must put an end to war, or war will put an end to mankind…War will exist until that distant day when the conscientious objector enjoys the same reputation and prestige that the warrior does today.”
– John F. Kennedy

“Five great enemies to peace inhabit with us: avarice, ambition, envy, anger, and pride. If those enemies were to be banished, we should infallibly enjoy perpetual peace.”
– Francesco Petrarch

“Never think that war, no matter how necessary, nor how justified, is not a crime”
– Ernest Hemingway

“Peace be with you.”
– The Bible: Genesis XLIII. 23

“If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.”
–Mother Teresa

“I object to violence because when it appears to do good, the good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent.”
– Mohandas K. Gandhi

“When the power of love overcomes the love of power the world will know peace.”

“Please give peace a chance!”


Special thanks to Mo, the brilliant force behind Manic Monday, for choosing “PEACE” to be this weeks theme and for the pretty cool MM Peace globe, which I “borrowed” from him - and to Mimi for creating the 3rd Blogblast for peace. Get your Peace Globe today!

Back in 19something…
School was out 4ever… we were celebrating our very last day at school. The Abitur (diploma from German secondary school for university admission or matriculation) exams were about to start the next week. It´s a German tradtion to celebrate this very last day @ school with a blast. The graduated plan this special day for many many weeks. They make plans to disturb the lessons, so the other little students will get a day off to celebrate with the seniors.
We´ve been a class of rebels. The teachers were full of fear. They trembled with fear, racking their brains about what our plans could be. MUAHAHAHAAAA!

Well, what can I say… our last day at school was a huge surprise for everyone (especially the teachers) .
Our last day at school was a blast. A blast for peace - themed:

“Please give peace a chance!”

Everyone was dressed in a self-created Flower Power dress. We´ve planted a tree in the school´s inner countryard - with an engraved plate showing our names and the motto. Our “disturbing noise” was all of us singing John Lennon´s “Give peace a chance”:

“Two, one, two, three, four
Ev’rybody’s talking about
Bagism, Shagism, Dragism, Madism,
Ragism, Tagism
This-ism, That-ism, is-m, is-m, is-m
All we are saying is give piece a chance,
All we are saying is give piece a chance
C’mon
Ev’rybody’s talking about ministers,
Sinister, Banisters
And canisters, Bishops, Fishops,
Rabbis, and Pop eyes, Bye, bye, bye byes
All we are saying is give peace a chance,
All we are saying is give peace a chance
Let me tell you now
Revoluton, evolution, masturbation,
Flagellation, regulation, integrations,
Meditations, United Nations,
Congratulations
Ev’rybody’s talking about
John and Yoko, Timmy Leary, Rosemary,
Tommy Smothers, Bobby Dylan,
Tommy Copper,
Derek Taylor, Norman Mailer,
Allen Ginsberg, Hare Krishna,
Hare
Krishna”

You see, even the worst rebels were longing for peace… and they still are ;)
Today, I´m a lucky mommy to Luis, many of my former dreams came true - many others didn´t. But one of my dreams is still up-to-date and will always be:

“Please give peace a chance!”

xoXOxo,

Sanni

And now…
… our moment of Homer J.:

Homer: Weaseling out of things is important to learn. It’s what separates us from the animals … except the weasel.

{She’s got a smile that it seems to me
Reminds me of childhood memories
Where everything
Was as fresh as the bright blue sky
Now and then when I see her face
She takes me away to that special place
And if I’d stare too long
I’d probably break down and cry

Sweet child o’ mine
Sweet love of mine

She’s got eyes of the bluest skies
As if they thought of rain
I hate to look into those eyes
And see an ounce of pain
Her hair reminds me of a warm safe place
Where as a child I’d hide
And pray for the thunder
And the rain
To quietly pass me by

Sweet child o’ mine
Sweet love of mine

Where do we go
Where do we go now
Where do we go
Sweet child o’ mine}

[:: Guns N' Roses - Sweet Child O' Mine]
