The video at left features the poem "The Box", written by Kendrew Lascelles in 1971 and recited here by the late
singer John Denver. The video is by theNewHuman2008, who put visuals to the potent words. Some of the pictures are difficult
to see, but they remind us of the horror that is war, and that often it's victims are the young and innocent. Truly the death of
one innocent child should be enough for us all to stop the madness that is war.
Please everyone, do all you can to make 2012 the year that we put war back in it's box, and let peace, freedom and justice reign.

Our Sons and Daughters. Husbands and Wives. Sisters and Brothers. Parents and Friends. It's enough already. All you "leaders" out there, listen. We - the people - want peace, please. Make it happen!
The visual above shows photos of people of peace, or visual
expressions of peace which they created. These photos provide just a small capsule of the tens of millions
of people around the world raising their voices and being visible and vocal for peace. Please join in!
