Victor, The power of love is tremendous. It has even been documented as healing. I do not mean to cheapen what you felt. But, you must understand that it was a group of like minded people. The consecration of energy focused on the same goal. That is not the case in war. I wish love could stop wars. I wish what you had/have would spread to all four corners of the world. But it has not, and will not. That is when wars take place. I have repeated several times here that it was not an easy choice for me to make, that doesn't seem to mater. I respect what you feel, I just feel differently. Kasey
But I have read the news articles, I have watched > the reports, and if we go to war, and if my family must fight this war, it is > because it must be fought, and talks, and love and JM cannot change it. > Take a deeper breath of this free air Susan, and remember it is sarcastic > patriots like me, and my family that fought wars to bring it to you. > I believe that talking, love, and music(JM included) can change things. I was at the NE jonifest and it definately changed me in many ways. I attended a festival a week later that changed me even more, a festival where a friend of mine died from a heartattack while I was playing on stage. I felt the energy that is created when 80 people gather together or when several hundred all gather together, thinking feeling the same vibe sharing love and music. It is real, very real and is nothing to knock. I feel that energy everyday. I have been through hell but have never stopped believing in dreams and love and the power of music. If enough people believe the same thing then they will make a difference. Air has been here for thousands and millions of years and does not belong to anyone.
