where peace lives


Here's an email from David Romanelli that I'm passing along. It pertains to a book titled "Where Peace Lives.

"Children are a blank slate. It's so important what goes on the slate. I usually wouldn't sling a product at you unless there was great SIGNIFICANCE behind it. WHERE PEACE LIVES by Debbie Robins is a book about an angel named Peace who's been locked in a glass box and can't get out. It's the storyteller's journey to find the Three Keys that will set Peace free. The characters are inspired by the peace teachings of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr, Buddha, Gandhi, Christ, Moses and the Prophet Muhammad. WHERE PEACE LIVES is a great book! But there's another reason I'm sending you this email. The mission is to sell enough copies of Where Peace Lives TODAY so that it moves into #1 on Amazon and trump Harry Potter. This will be newsworthy. This will create buzz and most important, this will open the door to enormous conversation/coverage about peace, children and education. Take a few seconds to check it out here."


And on the same topic, more words by a fave of mine, Dixie Chicks:

Sunday morning, I heard the preacher say
Thou shall not kill
I don't wanna hear nothing else about killing
And that it's God's will'
Cause our children are watching us
They put their trust in us
They're gonna be like us
So let's learn from our history
And do it differently.


Just take a look at that sweet little gal Lexie (isn't she cute). I've never really thought about children being our most precious natural resource (as I recently read), but it's so true. They are our future. What we teach them right now, at this present moment will stay with them for a lifetime. And that's big...that's huge.
