the power of the light

we pass between us

more light.
then our actions clear the path
for even more light.
That is why forgiveness
and compassion must become
more important principles
in public life.

You have to take the long hard look
and just believe that

you will succeed.

ReplyDeleteSuch a great man and such a loss to humanity. Thank you for all the links Cloudia and thank you for this lovely tribute.
ReplyDeleteI like the quotations you wrote from John Lewis – what a peace warrior he was. My late husband and I went to one of his book signing in Decatur, GA, in 2014 I think. There were many people there but he took the time to greet each. He asked me how long I had been in the US and gave me a strong handshake. So sad to see him go and such a loss for Atlanta, Georgia and the country too.
ReplyDeleteNice to see quotes from John Lewis. Have a good week.
ReplyDeleteAloha Cloudia, John Lewis will forever inspire us all, he was active up to the very end, and hopefully we'll bring to reality all that he's fought for all of his days. Lovely quotes.
