Today is the day when bloggers from all over the world unite and blog for a single cause.
Sandra Bullock's character in Miss Congeniality made this line very popular and we often laughed and used this as a joke. "World Peace" as what most of the contestants uttered made us all roaring with laughter. It was funny at that time, I have to admit, but as I became more aware of the thousands or maybe millions of families that have been affected by these warfare, it wasn't funny anymore.
I, Big Eyed Gal, like all the other bloggers who have joined in Mimi's BlogBlast for Peace, have I think one common goal. And that is to be heard. We all want the killings to stop. We have been fighting for centuries now. Haven't you had enough?!?!
I hope this reaches our world leaders and maybe just maybe they would stop and think and then REALIZE that enough is enough.
And for the rest of the bloggers, it is not too late. Go and visit Mimi's blog to get your own peace globe. Do it now! And join the BlogBlast for Peace.
Peace to you all! Kapayapaan sa inyong lahat!
Here's a song from Louis Armstrong. Something we could truly say when there is PEACE -- What a wonderful world.

Yes...yes, I so agree with Hemingway's quotation you used. And the Louis Armstrong choice is so perfect for t'day.
Come on over, and read my impressions of peace if you can find time today.
Peace to you today!

Beautifully said and what a great choice of song! Louis Armstrong singing "What a wonderful world"... what better way to be reminded of the fact that we have so much to be thankful for about this beautiful and fragile planet we call home.
That was a long sentence, wasn't it? :-D
Peace day wishes to you!
