For Whom the Bell Tolls

For Whom the Bell Tolls
by John Donne

No man is an island,
Entire of itself.
Each is a piece of the continent,
A part of the main.
If a clod be washed away by the sea,
Europe is the less.
As well as if a promontory were.
As well as if a manner of thine own
Or of thine friend's were.
Each man's death diminishes me,
For I am involved in mankind.
Therefore, send not to know
For whom the bell tolls,
It tolls for thee.

It's bad enough that the sea washes away, and yet we seem to be pushing men in. We should be grabbing ahold of those on the edge.

It is time to stop executing our own. This is no place for language of hate. It's time to embrace eachother and offer love and support.

I feel like a flower child protesting the war.
Peace Baby..

Groovy poem, baby!

Right on & solid, brother!

I can dig it, baby!

From one flower child to another: Far out, man!

Great thots, Devon. I appreciate them & you! You're cool, man!

I just realized what I said.

We should be grabbing ahold of those on the edge.

I see a constant stream of new members. Most of the names appear on the "new member list" and then disappear.

Grab ahold guys. Send a PM to the new members. Pull them in. Find out what they are looking for.

Devon:

Great idea! Watch for them as they come in!

I wish we had a list of profiles we could look at! (Hint Hint).

There is a new post on Family & friends that is the result of saying "Welcome & let me know if I can help" to a new member.

Reach out & help someone.

Devon
you're absolutely right, we should all visit the friends and family forum as often as we come here.

Reach out & help someone.

We all have something to offer, don't hold it back.

Devon, that's a good thot! To tell ya the truth I'd never really thot about it that way before. I just figured ok that's for family & friends of survivors, not survivors.

But am I not a friend of survivors? I hope so!
