Are we all the same? Do we all share the same fate?

We should be mindful of the new world order chant "WE ARE ONE". We must not let it over shadow the true motto of our fore fathers who thought so much of it that our commerce was governed by the words "AND MANY ARE ONE".
Together we can protect our rights to individuality and diversity. Together with one voice we must act. Actions speak louder than words, so let our actions show the respect for diversity, and tolerance for those are still learning by participation. the CHALLENGE I challenge every single person in the United States ages 16 and up to go to your next town hall meeting and listen. Its boring, but it affects you, your family, your neighbors and your future. Start in your own town halls and sit quietly, respectfully and listen.

WIKI SAYS:
A town hall meeting is an American English term given to an informal public meeting. Everybody in a town community is invited to attend, not always to voice their opinions, but to hear the responses from public figures and (if applicable) elected officials about shared subjects of interest. Attendees rarely vote on an issue or propose an alternative to a situation. It is not used outside of this secular context. There are no specific rules or guidelines for holding a town hall meeting.[citation needed] If the turnout is large, and in a particular case the objective is to give as many people as possible an opportunity to speak, then the group can be broken down into smaller discussion groups. Each group, in that case, appoints someone to summarize discussion of their group. Many companies also have such meetings. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Town_hall_meeting

Prayers for our Rwanda sisters & brothers

Our weekly shopping trip was tripley blessed this week when we ran into a vendor at the store bearing scores of the most beautiful handmade baskets and beads I have ever seen. A flood-gate of memories poured into my mind as I recalled the events of 1994. I was a single mother of 4 home schooling my children and alternating working odd jobs through the night. I can not recall a time that I had more trouble sleeping over an international crisis than that exhausting year when sleep should have found me easily.

The vivid images of men women and children floating by in a river of their own blood still haunts my memory, and probably those of the many brave photographers that made their way to our prayer chains. 'God bless RWANDA' and 'give her hope' rang like a mantra. Tears literally filled my eyes as they gazed upon the men and women, I believe, our prayers saved. The men and women who are now working in faith and hope to save their race, culture, and lineage.

Still missing ..

http://sunpoliceline.wordpress.com/2012/07/02/search-for-leo-coutu-continues/ the search for Leo Coutu continues. No 'formal' search is planned for Tuesday (the one week anniversary of Leo's disappearance) or for Wednesday (the Fourth of July). Armed with all the information I could find about Leo, I set out to started out to find him with my search party consisting of Kristina, Scotty Baby and me. We discussed everything I had learned about Leo as we hit the road. He has a bum leg, and spent the last few hours mowing the lawn. A 22 year retired Corrections officer at a maximum security prison. I would be on my way for a cold brew somewhere. We trailed our way through the brush to the best closest choice for a cold one. Perhaps staggering to or fro and idly struck by a hot rod driving texting teen ... maybe; or perhaps at 49 he was taken by the heat and physical work of the day and sought out a cool spot to sit in the shade for a minute. We checked all the brush along the road to two near-by bars and found nothing. Stopped by residents to ask what we were looking for, I wished I had made copies of the poster. I was shocked that so few people knew he was missing. No one had checked their own yards, even though there were clearly several 'short cut' paths worn through the back yards everywhere. We are doing our part. For all the times they didnt call to check in and made me worry, for all the strangers 'about their age' that I have stopped randomly on an early Sunday morning only to make them sit and call through the contacts in their cell phone to see if anyone went to a party and met someone of my child's name at it the night before, and for whatever motivates you to look for him. Leo, we'll find you. As your good friend Soucy says, "this is our community, we leave no man behind". This is our community. Be a part of it if you are in the area, or if you have every worried for an hour about where someone might be. I think its a good idea to do grid searches. They have had helicopters with infra-red and night vision, search teams made up of state police and comrade officers, and there are still people out there that dont even know he is missing. He is someone's Dad, someone's husband, and our community member. If you have seen him since Tuesday June 26 2012 call Dracut Police.

Leo Coutu search expands

MA~ Monday July 2, 2012 The search for a missing Dracut man continues to expand today. Even with the 'no soliciting' sign posted on my front door, two men full of courage knocked to ask if even I might have seen him. They regretted knocking, I'm sure since I shared the story of the wild animal out back eating it's victim one random 3 am this spring. But I took the missing poster, quite sure Coutu was lost in the deep forest having run from a coyote. The missing Dracut man is Leo Coutu. If any hikers see him out there

Leo, if you have run off with some cutie pie girl, which some sincerely hope is the case, please call home. http://www1.whdh.com/news/articles/local/12007879100064/search-for-missing-dracut-man-continues/ May the angels guide your footsteps, leading you home. Lucy D www.masterlucy.com
