Dear Friends,
This is a song that every time I listen to it, I cry. Probably, it speaks very truly and very deeply what is within us when we are in conflict with each other.
Let's take a minute to listen to this song and may be we can all learn something from it.

What I learn from this song is refraining from speaking when I am angry and only speak when I am at peace since words can promote understanding as well as hatress.
In a world where we coexist, there is no you or me, but us and hurting the other is in essence, hurting ourselves.
When we identify ourselves with beliefs, then when beliefs are being challenged, we felt challenged, threatened and the most natural reaction would be to do anything to defend ourselves.
But defending ourselves by "hurting" the others, is it really what we want?
We come to curezone because we have a common need is to self heal and to heal others. Then, how do we learn to do this in a way that each word or each action we take will be healing in every way?

Dear Mira,
Thank you for the posting the lyrics of "Imagine". I could hear the voice of John...
IMO, what John describes is not a dream but a reality that we do not grasb because reality is nothing but our own creation. The world is really what we make of.
Swimming against the stream, it takes strength, courage and wisdom to see through.
Thank you for your voice.
Long Nhi
