Decide to start your own IMAGINATION FOR PEACE Newsletter
in your community.



People possess a certain amount of energy
and if they use those resources in suppressing thoughts they won’t have that good energy to promote their health and wellness. If the immune system is strengthened by writing, which seems to be the case, this could be how writing affects illness through strengthening the immune system.

Creative expressions like writing, painting, dancing, etc.. contribute to a better health, a better community and a better world for everyone.


##3 Starting your own "Imagination For Peace" Newsletter.


"Beyond right or wrong... we are limited only
by the boundaries of our imagination." Virginia 99 years old.



FOR CREATIVITY TO HAPPEN, SOMETHING WITHIN US
MUST BE BROUGHT TO LIFE.

Creativity can not be found "outside of the spirit"
Creativity is 'an original' not 'a copy'
As life and age, our spirit, our breath of life is within ourselves

... let's set it free.




A lovely caterpillar created by an elder.
The title of his composition was
"Love is all we need."

POEM: ODE TO HAPPINESS

by Kathy J. Ward

This is my heart
this is my PEACE
it is joyful music
what you hear me sing

My fingers snapping
my hands clapping
my toes dancing
my body being blessed

A twist to the left
a twist to the right
the soul is the essence of my rhythm
clapping, dancing, snapping
Isn't this call 'art' ?
no words
to start,
to say,
to explain...

Ode to happiness
right here on Earth
I am giving birth
to LOVE
and nothing less...

* * * * *

Peace be with you!
