How did we reach this point with such venom?

What has gone wrong with us all, are we so convinced by the bigots that we each aim to justify a hostile campaign against people we dont really know? I believe we have witnessed such situations throughout history but have learned nothing. We are part of the one human race, with one G-D whom we call on in our prayers.

Think of those who hunger for food or shelter or love, see the faces of the suffering in the faces of your loved ones and thank G-D. Why not lay down your sword and talk, see yourself in the reflection of your enemy....I pray that your G-D will bless you with a loving heart in the new year and that each of you dreams be fulfilled. Life can be good if you only appreciate what you have.
