Very good letter, Barb. I don't hold out much hope for our world. In less than one hundred years, we will not recognize this place. Our only hope is divine intervention.

I fear you're right, but I am still praying. Thank you for the kind support.

Beautiful thoughts in this. Brotherly love is a great ideal, but hard to achieve, especially when we have people constantly putting others down because of their race or whatever, so that we don't trust others. I hope by the time your daughters are teenagers we will be on that road to peace,
We are not perfect beings, so it will be difficult. As you write, with God all things are possible. Beautifully written, and it's a wonderful hope for the future. judi

Not easy to love your Neighbour as yourself, because we don't love ourselves enough to be able to spread that love to other. Thank you for sharing and good luck with your writings.

Very true and a very good point. You can't share love if you don't know love first. Thank you for the kind support.

You are absolutely right, but will it ever happen? Recently, I was in my favorite little diner when the owner's wife came over and started talking about homosexuals. I don't know why. Anyway, I finally told her after she said God didn't love them, that Jesus said love everyone! He didn't pick out anyone not to be loved, and that was good enough for me.

Yes, God loves everybody, and He has set the example through Jesus. Thank you for the kind support. The hardest to love are the ones who need it most. I think I need to add that as a lesson learned.

Good point. I find it hard to pray for people I don't like. I'm working on it.

Hi Barbara,

I feel you nailed it on this one -
my most important hope for the future is because, world peace,
poverty/starvation/no fresh water, disease/sanitation issues, gender
inequality, slavery/human trafficking, are just a few that could be solved if we loved one another.

It may not address and solve every issue, but it most certainly is a step in the right direction.

Very well presented for you granddaughters time capsule.

Have a great day...
John
