A Conflicted Day

Created from DALL·E 2 – Open AI and Smart Photo Editor . As millions of Americans celebrate Thanksgiving on this conflicted day, it is important to remember this is a day of mourning for the indigenous peoples of the USA especially since “thanksgivings” were repeatedly offered to celebrate acts of genocide and murder committed against Native American peoples. There can be no joy until the 415-year occupation, though realistically irreversible, is addressed. At a minimum Native American nations (575 at least – if the Eastern Pequots are given their due recognition) should be granted autonomy over their lands and some form of reparations consisting of land awards and financial compensation are given for their suffering to ensure self-sufficiency. The same holds true with regard to reparations for African-Americans because of the disgusting stain of slavery and racism, the latter that remains endemic in our 21st century society. The soft pastel colors represent a new dawn with the soft red symbolizing life, the abundance of lines represent natural phenomena, water and the Native American connection with the spiritual world. The two circles represent the sun (a symbol of life giving warmth, healing and peace) and the moon (a guide and protector). The silhouetted tepees represent Native American peoples and nations. Therefore, as Americans celebrate Thanksgiving – we should be mindful of the sadness of Native Americans, take a moment to mourn and pray for their ancestors who were slaughtered, yearn for the day the 415-year occupation is addressed, and give thanks that in spite of the evils of the past, Native Americans are STILL HERE and LIVE along with our traditional gratitude for family, friends and health and for those who believe regardless of faith – to God for His abundance of blessings.

Never Again! again :(

Dalle-2 Generated Image to capture Israel's "9/11." Despite this genocidal abomination and the darkness of the moment, " The evil have no future. " [Proverbs 24:20] My deepest condolences and sympathies go to Israel and the Jewish diaspora. Finally, it is our generation's moment to unequivocally support Israel during her time of need especially for those of us who have said we would have opposed Hitler during the Holocaust but hadn't been born during that time to ensure " Never again! " doesn't re-occur again and again and again. stories.bringthemhomenow.net www.kidnappedfromisrael.com

Halloween Diptych 2023

Created by Dall-E 2, IMG2GO and digitally edited in Smart Photo Editor The image on the left depicts a traditional Halloween scene with ghosts, Jack O'Lanterns, and scary looking trees. The image on the right depicts an even scarier scene of terrified children with the planet Earth screaming above while on fire with darkened oceans because of all the spilled blood. This is so because of accelerating climate change featuring record global warmth during human existence, fires, floods and other natural disasters and because of the pitiful state of our affairs featuring wars, violence, depravity and other evils.

All Saints Day 2023

Collage created by Craiyon AI art generator / digitally edited in Smart Photo Editor . _______________ Sanctity is the Light of the World, The reflection of God Who dwells within it. It is virtue, holiness and love. It is patient and compassionate – unstained by evil and violence. It is the inspiration and hope of all who desire the " holy place [of God]" [Psalm 24:1] with " robes... [washed] white in the blood of the Lamb. " [Revelation 7:14] _______________ Sadly today's world that immerses itself in bloodshed, violence and unimaginable acts of evil doesn't recognize the virtues of sanctity because " it cannot accept [H] im (God) ... [and] neither sees [H] im nor knows [H] im. [John 14:17] May the world accept God, discover His love and one day "[t] urn from evil... do good; seek peace... " [Psalm 34:14] and "[m] ake every effort... to be holy. [Hebrews 12:14]
