Sing for the New Year
"You can help break the silence.
Talk about HIV and AIDS.
Let us use the universal language of music
to sing out our message around the world."
Nelson Mandela
former President of South Africa
former Political prisoner # 46664
Happy New Year. And please sing just like Annie Lennox does for those who cannot.
None of us are healthy if our neighbors are sick. None of us are strong if some are weak. We are not smart if some are denied an education. And none of us are wealthy if there is poverty.
Sing loud. Sing proud. Sing for all of us.
Who else is singing on this last day of the year?

Mariposa
Flower Child

I'll be out-of-town for a couple's get-away for the next few days. Amazing Guy's mom has flown up to stay with the kids. Carry on without me. I'll be back.

I always like Anne Lennox, even in her Eurythmics days. She is an awesome activist.
Enjoy your get-away!
Happy New Year and blessings to you and yours!
