Reflections 1
REFLECTIONS for a Humanist view Peace ‘I Have seen . . . I have seen a mother at a cot, so I know what love is. I have looked into the eyes of a child, so I know what faith is. I have seen a rainbow, so I know what beauty is. I have felt the pounding of the sea, so I know what power is. I have planted a tree, so I know what hope is. I have heard a wild bird sing, so I know what freedom is. I have seen a chrysalis burst into life, so I know what mystery is. I have lost a friend, so I know what sorrow is. I have seen a star-decked sky, so I know what infinity is. I have seen and felt all these things, so I know what life is. Anon ‘Chinese proverb . . . If there is light in the mind, there is beauty in the person. If there is beauty in the person, there is harmony in the house. If there is harmony in the house, there is order in the nation. If there is order in the nation, there will be peace in the world. Anon Thanksgiving & Forgiveness ‘Praise of a Man . . . Love ‘Love doesn't end . . Love doesn't end with dying or leave with the last breath. For someone you've loved deeply, love doesn't end with death. John Addey
