sappho posted for me when i needed some uplifting and support. she posted this picture and encouraged me with her words. i am posting this now to encourage all of us to continue to contact our congresspeople, write to the papers, keep our voices heard. there may come a time when we are no longer able to do any of these things out in the open- but many of us will continue to fight no matter what. keep the faith in america and keep on keepin' on.
"There must be lights burning brighter somewhere
Got to be birds flying higher in a sky more blue
If I can dream of a better land
Where all my brothers walk hand in hand
Tell me why, oh why, oh why cant my dream come true
There must be peace and understanding sometime
Strong winds of promise that will blow away
All the doubt and fear
If I can dream of a warmer sun
Where hope keeps shining on everyone
Tell me why, oh why, oh why wont that sun appear
Were lost in a cloud
With too much rain
Were trapped in a world
Thats troubled with pain
But as long as a man
Has the strength to dream
He can redeem his soul and fly
Deep in my heart theres a trembling question
Still I am sure that the answer gonna come somehow
Out there in the dark, theres a beckoning candle
And while I can think, while I can talk
While I can stand, while I can walk
While I can dream, please let my dream
Come true, right now
Let it come true right now"

Good post, good for today!
I'm watching this series on DVD called "Firefly." It has a very uplifting theme song - here, I'll post it for ya:
Take my love, take my land
Take me where I cannot stand
I don't care, I'm still free
You can't take the sky from me
Take me out to the black
Tell them I ain't comin' back
Burn the land and boil the sea
You can't take the sky from me
There's no place I can be
Since I found Serenity
But you can't take the sky from me...
i know the show of which you speak. my husband's friends all watch it religiously. i watched it a few times but i don't watch much tv or dvd so that's that.
