Light A Candle For Peace

Hopefully this link will lead to the one at the top, as for some reason it won't work here.

For all the souls lost and in despair today because of the illegal and immoral occupation of Iraq, and for those souls right here in America who call for justice. My heart is very heavy today, but I keep hoping that lighting candles will lead us out of the darkness. Please light a candle at the link above and pass it on.

4. "Put your trust in Allah, but tie up your camel first"
Yes, light a candle for peace. But also demand that your representatives support peace. March in the streets against the war. Write letters to the editor of your local newspaper. Provide resources to activists. Teach your children to value life.

It does no good to light a candle, if you do not take it outside and use it as a beacon for others.

6. I did not mean to imply you did not
Just reminding people that taking material action is at least as effective as prayer. :pals:
