Love & hugs

I think you are unaware of the sheer brilliance that radiates from your penned thoughts in these honest and penetrating writes, dear Felix. They are so un-self-aware and are all the more powerful for their lack of "pretension" when dealing with the pain observed and felt. Straight from the heart and onto the page... As always, this is your strength and your forte. Raw and yet sensitive. Bless you, Kate xx

Beautifully done. I don't foresee it happening until Jesus comes back to rule the earth, though.
Concerning the state of the human race, I believe Jesus is the only hope for peace--it must be in men's hearts first. "Acquaint now thyself with Him, and be at peace." (I think that's in the book of Job) People have to be willing to turn to God. He won't force them.

Warmly,
Connie

Undoubtedly one of your best Fee. The last stanza tied it up beautifully and brought more than one tear to this lady's eyes. It's the children who suffer the most and when I think of the ones who are left alone, confused and broken of spirit my heart screams. Thank you for sharing your wonderful talent.
Luv,
