LEST WE FORGET
8/2/2009 4:21:23 AM

THIS WAS AN ESTABLISHED FORUM THREAD.

I shall leave the rest of this forum as it is as a tribute to EVERY MAN OR WOMAN who has laid down their life for what they believed to be for the common good of their country and more importantly the good for the future of mankind.

This forum was set up a year ago as a place to leave prayers . You are still welcome to do so.

Go to the last page and do so if you wish.

HOWEVER,

The world moves on, and not always as we all wish.

We have differences. Not earth shattering news.

Let's celebrate the differences that we enjoy.

Let's celebrate even more the things we have in common.

The UNITED NATIONS despite it's name, only really represents those with a voice and some influence.

There are thousands who dedicate their life's work to furthering this cause and I commend them.

They are many times better than me.

Indeed I salute those in particular who leave the comfort of their country and home to serve others overseas, but, the organisation is flawed.

It is possible for any country to join the UN if it is willing to sign up to its aims, but, this does not allow for those countries who see things differently due to their poor position in worlds financial and asset wealth.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

I want to see an organisation where spiritual similarities are recognised and embraced

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is

The World Commonality Organisation

This is a place to find common ground, not differences

Join me on the

new forum of that name to start a spark to ignite love.

AND MANY MORE NATIONS

In Afghanistan troops from around the world are continuing to suffer in the name of world security. Whatever your politics/views on the war these soldiers are DOING THEIR DUTY to you and your country as they promised to do

Below are just a few indications of the cost to British soldiers serving there.

BRITISH CASUALTIES IN AFGHANISTAN MARCH 2006 - JULY 2009
Graph showing UK deaths in Afghanistan
1: Highest monthly toll with 19 dead including 12 killed when a RAF Nimrod crashes in Afghanistan.
2: British death toll reaches 100. Among the 13 fatalities in June is the first British female soldier.

The US contribution is the largest but in terms of commitment from soldiers there is little difference.

PLEASE PRAY FOR

ALL SERVING SOLDIERS

AND

THEIR EXTENDED

FAMILIES!

Post your prayers here!

Hi Roger,

Thanks for this great tribute to those who needs both : to be understood and appreciated, and to get our prayers/God`s mercy.

Whatever I could think about the politics behind ANY MILITAR FORCES,

I would never forget that one day, my very own son, who means to me much more than anything in the entire Universe,

maybe won`t be recognized as mother`s prince, and would be forced to take an uniform and weapons and go to serve some "global", "particular" interests, some justice or injustice.

My paryers for all who are involved at Afghanistan (and Kosovo) and anywhere in the world, and for their families, would never stop.

Let Peace become THE GLOBAL UNIFORM and THE GLOBAL WEAPON! Amen.

Love,

Branka

Let there be peace on Earth and let it begin with me.
Our choir director always ends our singing with that song.
Here, in Canada, we have the Highway of Heros.  When soldiers who have died in Afganistan (100+ now) go down 401 Highway hundreds of people line the overpasses to honor them .
In my little town we now a main road with signs erected by the Legion with Poppies on them.  It is designated as Veteran's Parkway.

Hey Dear Friends!

I had to find another video to post it here for all of us...

((youtube id="1YXvNuzqkfw"))((/youtube))

There's a place in your heart
And I know that it is love
And this place could be much
Brighter than tomorrow.
And if you really try
You'll find there's no need to cry
In this place you'll feel
There's no hurt or sorrow.
There are ways to get there
If you care enough for the living
Make a little space, make a better place.

Chorus:
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for
You and for me.


If you want to know why
There's a love that cannot lie
Love is strong
It only cares for joyful giving.
If we try we shall see
In this bliss we cannot feel
Fear or dread
We stop existing and start living
Then it feels that always
Love's enough for us growing
Make a better world, make a better world.

Chorus:
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire human race.
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for
You and for me.

Bridge:
And the dream we would conceived in
Will reveal a joyful face
And the world we once believed in
Will shine again in grace
Then why do we keep strangling life
Wound this earth, crucify it's soul
Though it's plain to see, this world is heavenly
Be God's glow.


We could fly so high
Let our spirits never die
In my heart I feel
You are all my brothers
Create a world with no fear
Together we'll cry happy tears
See the nations turn
Their swords into plowshares
We could really get there
If you cared enough for the living
Make a little space to make a better place.

Chorus:
Heal the world
Make it a better place
For you and for me and the entire human race
There are people dying
If you care enough for the living
Make a better place for
You and for me.

Refrain (2x)


There are people dying if you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me.
There are people dying if you care enough for the living
Make a better place for you and for me.

You and for me / Make a better place
You and for me / Make a better place
You and for me / Make a better place
You and for me / Heal the world we live in
You and for me / Save it for our children
You and for me / Heal the world we live in
You and for me / Save it for our children
You and for me / Heal the world we live in
You and for me / Save it for our children
You and for me / Heal the world we live in
You and for me / Save it for our children
