Yes, I hope Egypt manages to sort itself out. It sounds as if the protesters are growing tired, which is a pity, really, because they need plenty of energy if they are to achieve democracy (which may not be great but is better than a dictatorship or communism, IMHO).

Re:
Apology if the quote offended, Dear Elyse. Racism and hatred only lead to more of the same..Makes for a blinded distraction away from the root problems.

Thank you for reading and for holding onto hope.

I'm not stupid
...LOL --- that sorta stops me there. I don't like to be talked to demeaning or even angrily so that affected me.
(Carville was (is) 'strong' for me...too much to take, personally) and I personally consider, Of course, many are Hungry and Needy --- impoverished and declining - it's devastating what's happening world wide, Universally and it is mind-boggling, heart wrenching - and historically its what some historians claim as : history. However, I for one, just hope against hope and all that's bleak and sad out there that simply, Good will come from any horrible situation. I just can't lose hope for the best.
Thought provoking blog, Raye
~ and yes, I hope you have a wonderful day --- I'm rushing off myself for 'busy-ness' - Elyse
(I'm not a sports fan but, I am with you --- hope the best or favored team shows favor with their fans)

Re: Sounds like you are going to be busy and of course...there is unrest
It does indeed Kabu and awakens the hunger for self determination. Had a couple of minutes to duck in; back to the mad-house now..:)

Sounds like you are going to be busy and of course...there is unrest
in many lands and amongst many people. Evidently people are hungry...and that will always cause distress.

Re: I blame any "religion" without God and without love, be it Islam,
I just read your post and commented, Ariala. I don't feel it's religion, but evil and extremism of the individuals involved. Heartbreaking and so outraging!

I blame any "religion" without God and without love, be it Islam,
Christianity or any other nuts who are extremists...the rape of the 14 year old in Bangladesh is enough to get anyone outraged at these evil people!
