Bilbo, just want to let you know that I really appreciate these meditations on peace. I've come back to read them several times since you posted them. Very simple and direct, but they speak well to me and well for you.

The one that I *can't* relate to is about your sons' music coming on in the car... :o) What are your boys listening to these days?
