Diane Cameron is a recipient of world peace ambassador award.

Our prayers should not be just for our children...but also for the children we may never meet. When I eat a meal and drink clean water, I should be mindful that my neighbors across the waters may not have eaten in a week.When I am tempted to complain about the rain, I repent and remember that my sisters and brothers in other countries have not seen rain for months.

Here is my contribution to my collective earth family....It's the least I can do....." write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Jazz News :: home page |
