Take some time to poke around the site and read. Today on Voices I read several Haiku on War by Basho. I'm thinking of the islands of Japan, of course, and the tragedies that are still unfolding there. Why do we think we need to have wars, when the earth itself can create such suffering? Why don't we see each others as fellow travelers on this small planet and work to alleviate the inevitable pain of just being human?

"Why don't we see each others as fellow travelers on this small planet and work to alleviate the inevitable pain of just being human?" Excellent question, Rhonda. My heart aches with the reason we persecute each other and the use of the name of God in that response. Good people are everywhere, why can't that be enough?
