Johan (OUG):

Did you happen to watch Joanna Lumley's program on the ABC at 6.00pm last night (Dec. 26th), "In The Land Of The Northern Lights."?
The English actress pursued a lifelong dream of tracking down the elusive and beautiful Northern Lights. As I watched the truly amazing spectacle of the Northern Lights - I couldn't help thinking - "I hope Johan is watching this." I know you would have been deeply moved and uplifted by the beauty of it all.

its funny you should say so lexi

i was reading about them..
in a readers digest short story book
titled ice..[and agree they are spectacular]

i have turned off tv
[there simply isnt anything..that catches my eye]
but would have watched..if i had known..

i recalkl seeing visioning of it once..from outerspace
taken from where i dont recall...its a special thing for sure

there is a few occasions reportedly..that we have seen the southern lights in aussie..on the mainlanmd..

but never will be seen..here in qld

still images dont do it justice apparently
but the search reveals some great ones

Johan (OUG):

Thanks for the link. It simply re-affirms how small we humans really are and how vast and great and beautiful is the universe around us.
Wouldn't it be wonderful if every nation and every people and every colour and every religion find at last the one hearbeat we share?

peace will come
in our times

if we cant see war has no solutions
then were not trying hard enough

obama was a big disappointment
but the war mongers run..their banking system
financing both sides of every war..but one day..the banks loose control of the globes purse strings

and that day..is not far off
all we need is for people to not use banks
dont take..what they are giving..[credit]...we can starve the banks

spend only witrh the 'little guy'
spending at big business..it all goes back to the banks
the longest route...back to the bank..the better for everyone in the chain

but people love their credit cards
spending..their credit..gives big business more credit
but the intrwest...[on the credit]..can only come..when someone/else..default's..paying theirs

but lets focus on better times
the good things..family friends peace not pieces

cheers
from me

2u
all

Johan:

Let's focus on family, friends, peace in our times. I couldn't agree more. The average person can expect to give up three to four years of his or her life working to foot the arms bill, while ever more people suffer from illiteracy, ill health, and chronic hunger. We need new ways of thinking to cope with the nuclear age. It is here that writers, with their concern for the human condition and their special skills with language, can enable us to imagine the horrific reality of nuclear arms and nerve us to build an alternative future.
