Greetings and aloha friends,
I am writing to encourage and remind everyone to get out and vote for issues that are important to you. Say what you mean, mean what you say, and let yourself be known. No one else can do it for you.
In the meantime, I pray for peace, reconciliation and understanding in our country and the world. Deeper than our politics, race, or religion, we are all members of the human race. In our global community, we are connected.
Peace has to start somewhere. So, why not with each of us? I urge you to do something positive today: Turn off the TV; look up when you are walking; greet people with a smile; plant something; help a lost dog; take your kids to the park; call a friend; listen to the birds; bake extra and share; say hello to the mailman; share your skills; turn down the music; read something inspirational; pray or light a candle; seek to understand; listen before you respond to anger; know that no one is silent though many are not heard; live with love and aloha; and.... get out to vote.
Let yourself be known. Let's hope for a peaceful future with love and aloha!
Piper
