thus freeing your mind to think clearly toward the solution
that is certain to come. Never take yourself too seriously.

only people who have wearied of fighting
and desire to live in peace.

The organizers of an April 10, 2009
joint Protestant-Catholic commemoration
of the Northern Ireland dead,
comprised of members of the once-outlawed Sinn Fein
as well as their once-avowed enemies,
referred to, "the terrible, random nature
of death in war and civil conflict."
