My Philosophy
let us see what ties us instead of looking at our differences
What Gives Me Hope
My 2 granddaughters (10 and 12) are wonderful girls and give me hope for a better future.
If I were Mayor, I'd make the world a better place by
Do everyting I could to promote equality between all citizens. Do something about poverty. Stop the wars.
What/who changed my life and why
I read books since more than 50 years. I think every book had an influence on me. The last book (about caring for people) was "L'empire de la honte" by Jean Ziegler, UN rapporteur, about inequality in this world. Everyone should read this book. To preserve our planet to be destroyed by global warming and terrible disasters, I just bought "Earth : the sequel" by Fred Krupp-Pres. of "Environmental Defense Fund". It is about "The race to reinvent energy and stop global warming".
The future is now-The eyes are the reflection of the body and soul-When the power of LOVE overcomes the love of POWER, the world will know Peace(Jimi Hendrix)-A smile is worth a thousand words-Our strongest weapon:the public opinion-LOVE is all we need (The Beatles)-The greatness of a country can be seen by their behaviour against the animals (Mahatma Gandhi)-We don't own the earth (Chief Seattle)-If you love someone, tell him/her today because tomorrow could be too late-Change the world-A thing of beauty is a joy forever ..(John Keats)-
Dear friends of "Care 2", I am very sorry that I was away from Care2 except to reactivate the e-mail I use. Health problems, gone for now, much time to care about my daughter and 2 granddaughters needing help because my son in law is very often away worldwide for his work . My daughter lives now at 100 km from me, in a more healthy place than where I live. Here we have a very bad environment : incinerators at 2 km, a factory which is known for polluting a large area with poison as heavy metals of the worst kind. And I live in the middle of it. I am 69 since July 2008, so moving to a more healthy place is a problem for many reasons. However it is a risk to stay here. My wife passed away in 1999 (cancer) and was always healthy before we came here. But I am back (for now !!) because you are such nice people. Thanks for your care and nice birthday wishes :-
ROBERT, May all your wishes and dreams come true!! And as you celebrate the day of your birth, may peace and beauty fill the Earth!!! Warm blessings and joy... Becca
