Only 158 countries and 17 states still to go! WALK UPON THIS PLANET Tune: Snowbird Amidst a world in trouble it is true There are songs of hope and vision that are starting to break through. The chaos may be ringing in your ears, But the voices won't stop singing until everybody hears. Chorus: Walk upon this planet, call it "Home" From the highest celebration to the deepest pain‑filled moan. This worried world is yearning to forgive And reveal the unity where all together people live. The truth is higher than a bird can fly. It's bigger than a mountain—even wider than the sky. It's deeper than the wells inside the mind And it's more than what we're seeking or could ever hope to find. Jim Wiegel <http://partnersinparticipation.com/james-wiegel/> The unknown is what is. And to be frightened of it is what sends everybody scurrying around chasing dreams, illusions, wars, peace, love, hate, all that. Unknown is what is. Accept that it's unknown, and it's plain sailing.
