Being a pacifist between wars is as easy as being a vegetarian between meals. (Ammon Hennacy)
"Even when they call us mad, when they call us subversives and communists and all the epithets they put on us, we know we only preach the subversive witness of the Beatitudes, which have turned everything upside down."

Peace is not the product of terror or fear.
Peace is not the silence of cemeteries.
Peace is not the silent result of violent repression.
Peace is the generous, tranquil contribution of all to the good of all.
Peace is dynamism. Peace is generosity.
It is right and it is duty.
/Oscar Romero/

"The dictionary definition of a Christian is one who follows Christ; kind, kindly, Christ-like. Anarchism is voluntary cooperation for good, with the right of secession. A Christian anarchist is therefore one who turns the other cheek, overturns the tables of the moneychangers, and does not need a cop to tell him how to behave. A Christian anarchist does not depend upon bullets or ballots to achieve his ideal; he achieves that ideal daily by the One-Man Revolution with which he faces a decadent, confused, and dying world."

Dear Jumper, Ba put a link from her blog to yours, so I have tracked you down. It is amazing to see the amazing views of the mountains and the faces that seem to tell thousands of stories. I am thinking of you, praying for you, and sincerely hoping that wherever you go, and whoever you are with that you can be a witness of what needs to be witnessed, sitting with pain, and contributing where you can.
as i sit in belfast and wish i was where you are, i send you many blessings and much wisdom.
your sister in peace, emma cowan
