May 2026 be a year of people choosing peace and human kindness. It is a choice we make daily. (Sometimes repeated all day long).

🇺🇸✨ Democracy Thrives When Communities Unite✨🇺🇸

In a land we all know, though a bit topsy-turvy,

Three leaders stood shouting—Trump, Rubio, and Musk-y.

“Let’s leave NATO now! Send your dollars our way!”

To private-run buddies who profit each day.

They shrugged at our soldiers, our friends, and allies,

Ignored those who fought ‘neath democracy’s skies.

They forgot WWII, Afghan vets, and our kin,

As they chased personal profits with executive whims.

They stirred up our neighbors with spiteful divides,

With words sharp as daggers, and hate on all sides.

They cheered when our fellow Americans fought,

And spoon-fed the nation conspiracies taught.

But we seniors remember what government meant—

A promise to help every life Heaven-sent.

Back in 1935, under Roosevelt’s hand,

Social Security lifted this beautiful land.

It sheltered the elders, the children in need,

And helped everyday families survive, grow, and lead.

So when they say “old rules,” return to the past,

They’re aiming to shatter protections that last.

Returning America to pre-1935 view,

Means “You’re on your own” for both me and for you.

But we—yes, we grandparents—step into the light,

With truth in our pockets and facts shining bright.

We’ll remind every household what fairness once meant,

What love for our neighbors and freedom once sent.

So gather your families, your children full-grown—

Keep courage, stay steady, don’t walk this alone.

For democracy thrives when our voices unite,

And we pass down the truth with our hearts burning bright. ✨🇺🇸

The smiles on their faces, the wave of a hand, their love for their sweet rescue Aloka, who traveled with them from India, made me smile and, for a few moments. calmness and peacefulness were mine.

I think that it's not just the peace that moves the watching, it is the calm love that doesn't ask for anything back that is displayed by these monks. Who can see and feel such a thing and not be moved? Bless those monks.

I am proud that Georgia is welcoming the Monks.

I am from Georgia and know Peachtree City well. Thanks for the welcoming and mutual respect for these missionaries of peace. They are true believers is love and non violence.

I had heard about this pilgrimage, but the videos are so very powerful. I found myself tearing up watching these humble and peaceful souls put bracelets on the policemen. I believe we are starving for calm, for peace, for something positive in which to believe. Considering myself spiritual, but not religious, I am drawn to many different spiritual beings. I would love to witness this in person. I wish them well on their journey and have immense appreciation and gratitude for their quest.

I visited Thailand in Jan 2020 (right as Covid was hitting Asia!) on a trip with Overseas Adventure Travel. We visited an early morning market in Chiang Mai where we picked up food and flowers to offer as alms to the monks at nearby Buddhist temple as the day was barely breaking. I'm not very religious, but it was very spiritual. On the way from Chiang Mai to Chiang Rai we stopped at a another temple for a discussion with a Buddhist monk. It was very enlightening (no pun intended) and I learned a lot about Buddhism.
